Watch the BBC first on iPlayer 👉 bbc.in/iPlayer-Home Inspirational dancer Andrew freestyles to Can't Stop The Feeling by Justin Timberlake. Twenty-one-year-old Andrew was born with Down's Syndrome. A self-proclaimed 'captain of dance', Andrew loves contemporary, ballet and ballroom.
Dance talent show where dancers of any age and dance style compete to win £50,000 and a chance to perform on Strictly Come Dancing.
Leading the charge to discover the greatest dancer are three superstar dance captains - platinum-selling singer Cheryl, Broadway and Glee star Matthew Morrison and Strictly Come Dancing professional Oti Mabuse.
The series is hosted by singer and presenter Alesha Dixon and Jordan Banjo, member of multi-award-winning dance troupe Diversity.
The audience hold the power - if they are impressed by the audition, they can vote to open the mirror, and if 75 per cent of the audience vote yes then the mirror will open and the dancer will make it through to the next stage of the competition, the callbacks. Get ready to see talent from across the world of dance, from ballet to jazz, street to ballroom, contemporary to disco as the dancers give the performances of their lives in the hope of opening the mirror.

    What an amazing dancer. He doesn't let his downs syndrome define him or get in the way of his passion of dance. He danced so elegantly and you could see that he was really passionate in his performance. For the 1.4k people who dislike this young man's performance, shame on you, jealousy is such an ugly trait to have. I'd like to see each and everyone of you 1.4k dance like Andrew does. You can't that's why you choose to dislike this video

    I am now in tears. After having watched this video, I was reminded of my sweet Down Syndrome son, Bryce. It has been almost 7 years since his passing, at the age of 22. He was very loving and my wife and I miss him dearly. He was not able to talk, walk on his own, or interact with others very much. But, we enjoyed him immensely and considered it a privilege to have had him in our home. My heart goes out to the mother and rest of the family for loving and caring for him. My wife and I hope to see our angel again on the other side soon.

You literally can read all about what trisomy-21 does to the brain. So praising someone for their joy and passion, it's ok to do that. It's not patronizing. You're living in their joy, which in turn makes you feel joyful as well.

    Good in this sense transcends dance complexity. This isnt just about dancing, codings not just about 0s and 1s, talking isnt just about intelligence. Ya see humans are interesting creatures, we have a prefrontal cortex that orders priorities, and for the average person we do not only care about 1 thing, we care about many. And truly i tell you there is something to be gained for everyone by putting love as the top priority. That is whats really "good"

    My little brother has Down syndrome and seeing this just burst me into tears. I am so happy for him and his family because I know how hard it is getting through day to day activities. Big congratulations and don’t let anyone stop him, it happens to much to vulnerable people. Anyone who dislikes this video has no heart but whatever it’s their choice. and if they want to live a mean life looking down on vulnerable kids that’s their problem. Also, notice how I haven’t used the word ‘disabled’ or ‘special needs’. We shouldn’t put a label on anyone. We all have our problems and it just so happens that theirs can be diagnosed and seen physically. I’m sorry for ranting but I just want people to understand that it’s hard for me to keep all my feelings in sometimes. Please spread the love and care and thanks for reading Xxx
