First for Women Magazine, Movement as Medicine

When First for Women Magazine sends you an email asking if you’d be available to take some photos of a beautiful lady with an amazing story, of course you say yes.

Sarah Luce and I spent the morning in her living room, chatting about her life and what lead her to be a featured face in the magazine. About 11 years ago, Sarah was diagnosed with a benign brain tumor and after surgery, she was left with deafness in one ear, chronic pain, and muscle weakness. It wasn’t until 2017 when she discovered a series of online workout dance videos that everything started to change.

“I never thought dancing would help me feel better, but the more I moved, the less pain I had. Today I’m stronger than I’ve been in 15 years and I even lost more than 70 pounds! Most important, now chronic pain is a thing of the past.”
