This plus-size ballerina is all the inspiration you need to start being body positive in life

Remember those troubled teenage years, when most of us were so full of self doubt and low on confidence? How we wished an angel would magically appear to pull us out of that extremely confusing phase of life!

Unfortunately, angels are fictitious (or so, we think); however, there are some people, who may not exactly pull us out of the dark, but help us focus on the brighter side of life. They are so positive that their attitude can give us the strength we need--not just during teenage, but in any phase of life.

The 15-year-old Lizzy Howell is one such inspiration. This plus-size ballerina from Milford, Delaware is all about breaking stereotypes and embracing her beautiful body, whole-heartedly.

Lizzy, who started dancing when she was five years old, has been practicing ballet for the past 10 years with full dedication. However, her recent video on Instagram turned her into an internet sensation as she has garnered a lot of praise for pursuing her passion for dance with such confidence and grace.

Watch her rocking the fouettés and pirouettes like a pro in this video:

Isn't she beautiful? And did we mention that this multi-talented dancer also practices jazz and tap dancing? Beautiful and versatile, we say.

She surely has a bright future ahead and we really hope that more women get inspired by her and do what they like. Without giving much thought to what others would say.
