This is Anthony Madu from Nigeria. A video of him dancing in the rain when he was 11 made him an internet sensation which led to an offer of a place at the prestigious Elmhurst ballet school in the UK.

Now aged 14, he's training to become a professional dancer and his amazing journey has been made into a Disney+ documentary, called Madu. “One of the reasons why I agreed to make the film was because I wanted to inspire kids to dance, or to do whatever they wanted in life,” says Anthony.
