Michaela Deprince does not look like the “typical” 17 year old ballet dancer. At 5’4″, she is shorter and more muscular than most ballet dancers. She is also from Sierra Leone.

Michaela tells the story of how she was adopted from her home country after her parents were savagely killed in a war and she was placed in an “if you make it out, you’re lucky” foster home. Her parents came to adopt one little girl (her sister – not by blood – Mia) and couldn’t bear the thought that Michaela would “never find a home” so they adopted her too. Her ballet dreams stem from seeing a woman on the cover of a magazine in a ballerina costume and decided to always keep that picture with her.

And now.............she can do.......................THAT ^^ !!
