One Man Set Out to Break Down Stereotypes on Body Size and Dance [VIDEO]
23 year old Erik Cavanaugh is becoming a viral sensation with his beautiful and graceful dance moves.
Erik does not look your "typical" dancer, he has a bigger body type and for some it was assumed that he could not dance or be graceful in the process, which is the furthest thing from the truth. He is proving that dancers come in all shapes and sizes and has become an inspiration to so many.
Erik has said he hopes that through his videos he can inspire people to give them the courage to try and dance or pursue whatever your passion is, and not to let your size hold you back. Bravo Erik!
