Briju Mohan did not let the loss of his arm define him

Briju Mohan is a left-arm amputee. At the age of 28, he lost his arm in a bike accident. Dancing had consistently been enthusiasm and one of my first thoughts on the hospital bed was how to do salsa with one hand. Thanks to my friends, soon I was on stage with them performing in Singapore. That really boosted my confidence to be up there continuing to do what I love to do, said Briju.

Today, he is one of the co-founders/trustees for a non-profit organization in India – One Step at a Time and one of the main initiatives he drives as a part of his NGO is to create accessible opportunities for PwDs to pursue the passion of dance and its different forms. He further told that “His group wants to perform and consistently they fight to get rid of any awkwardness and misconceptions around the point of incapacity through dance.”


Today Briju Mohan is learning contemporary dance form and Salsa is known to be his forte.
