Dancing through life enjoying every minute...until...something comes along to change it.  For Nurjahan Boulden, that time came in 2006.  While in Canada to attend a family wedding, she went out with family to go dancing.  Sitting at this rooftop club, she suddenly felt pain in her leg and dropped to the ground.  She had been shot!

Nurjahan's story is story of hurting, persevering, and finally thriving.  This is a powerful story.

Nurjahan Boulden grew up with dreams of becoming a dancer. When she was shot in the leg with an assault rifle in a random attack at age 21, she thought those dreams were destroyed. She suffered in silence physically and emotionally for almost a decade before she met another survivor who inspired her to share her story. She’s now a dancer, survivor, and storyteller, inspiring audiences around the world to face their greatest fears and rise in the face of adversity.
