Apr 13, 2023

Lots of people come up with the flimsiest excuses as to why they cannot achieve their goals, but that is not the case for this amazing young girl. Vitória Bueno is a ballerina from Brazil, but unlike most dancers, she does not have hands. The extraordinarily talented young girl does not limit her capabilities. She is widely known for her dancing prowess in contemporary dance, tap, and jazz at the Academia Andrea Falsarella studio in Santa Rita do Sapucai. Bueno has accomplished great success in the dance industry that other upcoming artists aspire to reach. Her physical disabilities and young age have not deterred her from rising to the top of her game.

Bueno’s lack of arms does not make her stick out from the group when performing. On the contrary, she blends in with the other dancers seamlessly. A video of her dancing in “Alice in Wonderland” back in 2018 showed just how effortlessly talented she is and was even dancing in the front line!

Bueno is a warm ray of sunshine. All her performances feature her signature bright smile that is guaranteed to cheer you up. Besides dancing, Bueno has learned to live her life independently and can do everything her peers can without her hands. If anything, Bueno is living proof that you do not need to look like everybody else to be independent.

Bueno has continued to impress people with her talents, and she has become a well-recognized star in her own right. Read on to learn more about this inspiring dancer.

Her exciting dance videos and how-to procedures have seen her gain more than 464,000 followers on her Instagram page. Bueno continues to be an inspiration to many teenagers and people with physical differences like her. In 2019, she posted a video doing her makeup to perfection using only her feet, and her followers seemed to be in awe of it. If this video of her putting on her makeup with her feet is anything to go by, Bueno is a pretty good content creator, too.

Bueno’s ability to shine through her disability has put her in headlines time and again. She has also received recognition and awards for her dancing prowess, including some from the coveted Royal Academy of Dance in London. The dance school Bueno attended was approved by the Royal Academy of Dance in Brazil.

Bueno received a gold medal from the Royal Academy of Dance in Brazil in October 2019. This was recognition for having passed the RAD level 2 examination with an impressive distinction. The young star took to Instagram to express her excitement at yet another accomplishment in her budding career.

Bueno is as determined to live a normal independent life as her fellow teenagers. She is very active on social media and has not let her uniqueness deter her from doing the things that she loves. Dance is clearly her passion and number one interest.

Her Instagram page is rife with pictures and videos of her outstanding performances, with occasional sneak peeks into her personal life. Her determination to establish herself as a force to reckon with in dance despite her handicap is truly remarkable.

Bueno uses her social media platform to spread words of kindness to her fans and followers with quotes such as, “If you tire, learn to rest, not to give up,” and other words of gratitude and encouragement for the people that have stood by her and supported her throughout her journey.

Most teenagers out there are trying to find their footing in school, and a good number of them haven’t even started to figure out what they want to do with their lives. That is far from the truth for Bueno. She knew that her passion and talent lay in dancing and started pursuing it from an early age. Bueno is currently doing exemplary things at her dance school and has even caught the attention of some significant players in the world of dance.

Bueno does not have any arms from her shoulders, as she was born like that, according to NBC. The dancer explained that her life is “super normal.” Her Instagram page is characterized by photos and videos of her dance performances, accolades, and activities going on in her school. Instead of focusing on what she has no control over, Bueno portrays herself as a professional and growing brand.

Bueno seems to be at the top of her dancing career, but she is only getting started. She has her entire life ahead of her and is already receiving recognition from reputable institutions in the industry. 

In 2021, Bueno competed on Germany’s “Das Supertalent,” earning the Golden Buzzer and ultimately finishing in second place. “The show changed my life a lot,” Bueno said. 

The dancer wrote on Instagram:

“Thank you, Lord, for believing in me, I know that your will will take me further than I dreamed. Gratitude to my family members for being my 💕 base 💕 encouraging and taking care of me all the time!”

In 2023, Bueno went on to compete in “America’s Got Talent: All-Stars.” “When I found out that I was invited to ‘America’s Got Talent: All-Stars,’ I became super happy to be participating in the greatest show in the world,” the dancer said.

Bueno posted a heartfelt post on Instagram and said:

“Watching my presentation on AGT makes me think of all the times watching other incredible talent and wondering if I would ever step on the same stage… And yes, I didn't just step on the same stage!!!”

She added, “I can only be thankful, my heart overflows with GRATITUDE!”

Not only has Bueno proven that she can conquer any stage, but she has also dipped into the world of makeup. She posted a video on Instagram showing her partnership with the makeup brand Maybelline. In the video, Bueno demonstrated how she uses her feet to put on and take off her makeup. The comments were filled with praise, with many people telling Bueno how beautiful she looked and how talented she was.

Bueno has shown the entire world that achieving your dreams or even starting to work on them is not about what you have on the inside – it is about pushing yourself and encouraging yourself to be better every day.
