Hi everyone! Trust me on this one, you guys will love this uplifting video. Introducing plus-size dancers from full-figured company. This all girl group are killing it by doing what they do best!

Big girl Akira Armstrong was in two Beyoncé videos, but couldn't find an agent to represent her as a professional dancer because of her size. To change the narrative around what a dancer's body should look like, Akira started her own dance company, made up of plus-size dancers. "Pretty Big Movement" is destroying dancer stereotypes, one routine at a time.
