#MondayMotivation from the wise, wise soul of Debbie Allen. ✨ Debbie Allen is a highly respected master of dance, choreography, acting and much more. She has won numerous Emmy awards for her outstanding performances and was appointed to the President’s Committee of Arts and Humanities in 2001. All the while owning a dance academy in Los Angeles, where Allen continues to mentally and physically train the future generations of performance artists. Evoking the youth to reach their fullest potential despite racial inequalities they may face, much like Allen was exceedingly able to do. . . . #debbieallen #blackballerinas #debbieallendanceacademy #unapologeticallyblack https://www.instagram.com/p/B0O1wheBEE0/?igshid=6omr05uvdd4x

Reposted from @debbiewilsondance Congratulations @therealdebbieallen for your Governor's Award at the Emmy's yesterday! So well deserved. She has been such an inspiration to me!! I have had the honor of auditioning for Mrs Allen a few times. Many great stories but I will only share one now. It was for a show that she was taking to Atlanta. I made it through 2 callbacks. At the final callback we were in a very large studio and as I was getting my bag to leave I saw her walking from her table straight towards me. She took my hand and said "You are very special. Do not stop believing in yourself. Keep dancing. " and she walked back to her table. I didn't end up getting the job but just the fact that she said those words to me, it kept me believing and dancing! Thank you Debbie Allen!! 😁❤❤ #debbiewilsondance #debbieallen #debbieallendanceacademy https://www.instagram.com/p/CUC0rEBPMv4/?utm_medium=tumblr

Happy muscle Monday! I love this lady (even though I've never met her)... I grew up watching fame and she was my idol. Perfect mixture of beauty, humor, elegance and sass. She's still killin it! @therealdebbieallen ❤️❤️this woman's talent was almost denied to the world because of the colour of her skin (check out her biography) She runs a non profit organization for girls 4-18 to learn how to dance regardless of financial status. Her struggles opened doors for many after her because she didn't give up #musclemonday #fame #debbieallen #broadway #adifferentworld #writer #actor #director #westsidestory #debbieallendanceacademy #debbieallendance #dancerlife #dancer #beauty #elegance #muscle #strength #forblackgirls
