The physiotherapist encouraged her to do the impossible
18-year-old Bueno was born in Santa Rita Do Sapucai, Brazil with a genetic condition that left her upper limbs missing. As a child, she had to attend numerous rehabilitation sessions and it was one of the physiotherapists who first gave her the idea to connect her life with dance. At his urging, as a 5-year-old, she signed up for ballet lessons, even though her mother was initially skeptical about the rehabilitator’s offer. She was afraid that her daughter would be badly received by the group, because in her hometown she aroused not always the desired attention. – There were queues outside our house to see her – she recalled in one of the interviews. However, the introductory classes for children did not end there. Today, the teenager attends the prestigious Academia Ândrea Falsarella ballet school, where she also attends jazz and tap dance classes. She never saw the lack of hands as an obstacle. “It’s just a detail,” she assured. She is fully independent, opening the door every day, eating and even painting herself with her feet.
