Life’s a dance ❤️. Many prople know I have prosthetic legs and competed on DWTS but what you may not know is for the last 4 years I’ve been fighting to walk again. It’s been such a long journey just to get back to here. Whatever you are going through, keep going. ❤️ @Derek Hough

The end of this dance will forever be one of the coolest moments of my life. Watching the DWTS finale brought me right back to that incredible freestyle Derek created for us. I remember feeling so proud of myself, of us, of everything we poured into this journey. Having 2 prosthetic legs, when we first stepped onto that dance floor, neither of us knew how far we’d go. And in that final moment, in the air, all I could think about were the years of grit, the hours of training, and the incredible p

My feet slipped all over the dance floor in practice, I couldn’t feel them on the ground, yet somehow every week we were able to do this! The possibilities are endless if you keep trying and don’t give up on yourself! Thank you @dancingwiththestars for bringing me on the show not even knowing what was possible! And, how blessed was I to get the best partner @derekhough . I will forever be grateful for this experience! ❤️ #dancingwiththestars #dwts #derekhough #amypurdy | Amy Purdy

I want to be careful sharing my full story publicly right now. But if you want to hear it and also want some solutions that are working comment with the word “ ME” below and I will send you the link to join

When I lost my legs, I had no idea I would be able to go on and dance like this! This was my Finale dance on the show and we didn’t want to show my legs because we wanted to be judged like everyone else, but I promise my legs were made of metal and wood! To this day I am so proud of myself for making it to the end. It was the hardest 10 weeks, but an experience I’ll never forget! Also, I danced in foam feet without shoes on the balls of my feet to do this. There weren’t any “dance” feet so we ha

After injuring my leg 4 years ago and enduring 10 surgeries, I had no idea if I would ever walk comfortable again, let alone dance again and tonight not only did I walk into the theater but I danced again with my friend & DWTS partner @derekhough ❤️ PS- Derek’s tour “Symphony of Dance” is incredible! There is nobody more talented , creative and passionate than @derekhough ! Go see him! Tickets are still on sale! Thank you to our loves @hayley.erbert and @dang_ale for cheering us on! ❤️ | Amy Pur

She doesn’t know it yet, but not long after this, she’s going to lose both her legs, kidney function, spleen and fight for her life.Then go on to snowboard down the biggest mountains in the world, dance for millions of people across the world and speak on some of the largest stages in the world. And here she thought it was the end of the world. ❤️ Life is such an adventure, as long as you keep putting one foot in front of the other you will be ok. I promise. | Amy Purdy

In honor of the premier of @dancingabc tonight here is a clip of my last practice before dancing in the Paralympics Opening Ceremony last week! After #DWTS I had no idea if I would get the opportunity to dance on such a big stage again and then this opportunity appeared! I danced to a stadium of over 78,000 people and hundreds of millions of viewers watching. How crazy is that?! What an experience it is to learn to dance! Thank you @derekhough for being a huge part of that! Good luck tonight and

Starting the day with yoga & breathwork! I have been wanting to include more wellness into our programming with our organization so our Snow & Flow event this weekend was the perfect way to do it! Snowboarding & yoga! It honestly was the perfect mix! When was the last time you started your day this way?! It was so calling and connecting! In fact I’m thinking of becoming an adaptive yoga instructor what do you think? Any good yoga schools out there? Thank you @toyotausa @ @teamtoyota for supporti

What was less obvious (if you weren't paying attention) is that Amy is dancing as a double lower extremity amputee! That Amy can dance with such extraordinary grace, ability and talent shows her unwillingness not to be defined by her disability. The kind of disability the world says it is impossible to walk again much less dance with such magical strength and sassy style. In e
