About Shaheem Sanchez:
Following in his father’s footsteps, Shaheem Sanchez, aka deafdancershaheem, started dancing at age 11, despite losing his hearing at the age four. Though his father passed before he was born, his family told him stories about his father’s dance skills and he thought, why not give dance a shot? Dance has become a very important part of his life. He loves to feel the music, go with the flow, and feel the peace that comes from dance. By feeling the beat and reading the body language of his collaborators, Shaheem is able to connect to the music and express himself. It is important to him to show that deaf people can do anything, because anything is possible. Fun Fact: Shaheem passed down his love of dance to his little brother Kida The Great (you may have heard of him!)

I grew up in a deaf household! My grand parents are deaf and they love music !! It amazes me how Black people are so rhythmic even when they can't hear!!! My grandpa loved Micheal Jackson and would play the tape really loud in the car and would clap on beat !! The off the wall album is still his favorite!!!! Much love!!!!
Im sorry to ask, but how, did he feel sensations, what was in it for him
Damn! The fact that he can speak that well since he lost his hearing when he was four is amazing.
Basia Price i was impressed too
kiah43 thank you
Basia Price Thank you lol
Shaheem Sanchez I hope you keep dancing like you are now. Best of luck!
Shaheem Sanchez love you shaheem you are the best 😍😍
My sister was born deaf and has always struggled with accepting it. She would always get upset and say she can't do the things everyone else does, she puts headphones in her ears and turns the music all the way up... This video, you dancing; this shows that you can still do anything. You can't let it hold you back. You're an inspiration!
the fact that he was able to teach his brother how to dance while he is deaf is really great ❤️
YOU GIVE HOPE EVERYWHERE A DISABILITY DOES NOT STOP YOUR DREAMS I LOVE IT AND YOU ARE A REALLY GOOD DANCER
i was getting teary eyed.. was starting to feel some sort of way..then i realized he doesn't need the pity or the tears.. he is good.. he is strong... his hearing doesn't dictate the love he has for dance and family... been watching them for awhile.. love the joy they bring to many others around the world... can't wait to see baby girl break through like kida.. sending you all peace and blessings..

WHO'S HERE BECAUSE OF CL'S "I QUIT" MV
He's hot deaf or not I would take sign language to be with him😍🤐 people are dumb
He can't hear the music he has to feel the vibrations
it's sad that u got bullied but how could u know that they are calling you names
damn Daniel Dabb dabbking READ lip fam we are not blind
+Shaheem Sanchez some people are blind `fam' so next time get your facts right
??? You asked him how he knew they were calling him names. He says he read their lips, he's not blind. Then you bring up 'some' people being blind, "so next time get your facts right"? What the hell are you even talking about? LOL. What does 'some' people being blind have to do with him explaining he's not and that he can read lips? How is that him having his facts wrong? You sound stupid out here.
Xtra TrstrL he said that we are not blind but some people are so he should be more respectful
He's saying "we" as in deaf people in general - are not blind. That is not disrespectful to anyone.
amt nothing rong with your voice
"No one believes that because I'm deaf"
he is really hot tho 😘😘
❤️
