In the short clip about her story that the show aired before she performed, Vitoria was born with a genetic defect. Hence, she had no arms since birth. But even then, her mother noticed that little Vitoria loved dancing as a child. That’s why she enrolled her in a dancing class as early as five years old. Since then, she has grown in her passion as a ballet dancer.
Pursuing Dream
Since then, Vitoria never allowed her condition to stop her from chasing her dreams. She also attested that she lived a normal life despite having no arms. The disability never disheartened her. Instead, she learned to live with her situation and do basic things using her feet.

Then one day, Vitoria decided to join a Got Talent show in Brazil, of which she came in second place. Later on, America’s Got Talent invited her to join the show for its All-Stars season.
Then finally, the day came for Vitoria to showcase her talent on the international stage of America’s Got Talent. She danced to the song of Lauren Daigle’s “You Say.” And as the AGT judges and audience watched, almost everyone felt emotional. Then she ended her beautiful performance with a mesmerizing ballet that stunned everyone.
Judge Howie Mandel commended her ability to balance in ballet dancing even without arms.
“We didn’t even see a second of faltering, it’s amazing! The amount of strength and elegance,” he said.
