Many Strictly fans love Motsi Mabuse for her encouragement towards the Strictly contestants, her clear and constructive feedback to help them progress, and also how well her love of dance comes across in her role as a judge. But Mabuse's journey to becoming first a Latin dance champion and then a Strictly Come Dancing judge wasn't by any means easy.
In this autobiography, Mabuse tells her story of growing up in apartheid-era South Africa, her experiences of discrimination, and how she raised money so she could compete in international competitions. Readers will learn about the world of professional dance and Mabuse's trials and triumphs to reach where she is today.
