“I am so inspired by the women (and men) who have fought and those who are fighting this battle head on. Dancing for a cure is the least I can do to support this mission,” Chatman said.

Event founder Jill DeMarlo and Samantha Chatman’s dance instructor, Drew Sutherland, joined ABC7 on Saturday morning.
