Tiny Dancers Defy Limits at Cerebral Palsy Center

The United Cerebral Palsy Association of Nassau County gives kids chance to shine on stage.

They move about the stage in whimsical costumes, bounce to the beat of the music and burst into smiles upon hearing audience applause.

These 25 tiny dancers are both beautiful and inspiring, but if not for the United Cerebal Palsy Association of Nassau County they never would have had their moment on stage to shine.

Patch visited UCPN's Children's Learning Center in Roosevelt for their annual ballet recital and met a remarkable young girl from Malverne, who like her peers, has found a place to learn, grow and showcase her talents.
