Feeling the power of music is just as important as hearing it. What moved you most about Shaheem’s story? Shaheem Sanchez lost his hearing at the age of four. He taught himself to dance by feeling the vibrations of the music. Vibrations from noise in the outside world confuse his perception of the music. This is his process to show that Deaf people can do anything, because anything is possible.

VIDEO [CC] - Deaf Taiwanese dancer Lin Ching Lan proves naysayers wrong - SK-II #changedestiny stories.



TAIPEI -- Lin Ching Lan is founder of Taiwan’s first troupe for Deaf dancers. Her story is beautiful. She was born with a hearing impairment, but she has not let that control her life. Her goal was to be a dancer…she just wanted to dance!



Schools and Teachers told her she would never dance because she couldn’t hear the music but…she can feel the music. We can use her as an example for when people tell us we can't do something…you can prove them wrong, if you work at it!





In the 1970s, SK2 scientists began a fervent quest to uncover a skincare ingredient that would make beautiful skin a reality for every woman.



Across land and sea, they sought for the answer. Despite researching a myriad of possibilities, the secret they were looking for long eluded them.



It was only by happenstance that the scientists eventually found themselves in a simple sake brewery where they chanced upon the soft and youthful hands of aged sake brewers. The breath-taking sight was the inspiration of the skincare miracle they would eventually uncover – a destiny of beauty was finally within reach. Source
