The Strictly star Amy Dowden says she is aiming return to the hit show this year following her cancer diagnosis

Expressing gratitude for “witnessing another St David’s Day,” the 33-year-old dancer from Caerphilly reflected on her journey after being informed of her grade three breast cancer diagnosis last year. Her diagnosis coincided with the commencement of filming for the second series of her television program, Dare to Dance, in which she ventures across Wales instructing dance routines. Following a mastectomy and chemotherapy, medical assessments reveal “no evidence of disease” at present.

Amy makes her return to the Dare to Dance stage this Friday, describing it as “essentially a people’s Strictly and, for me, the ultimate show.”

“It encompasses everything I adore – teaching, choreography, you name it. It’s all wrapped into one.”

Among the contestants are a firefighter who concealed his passion for dance, friends aspiring to perform at a Windrush celebration, and a couple devoted to Wrexham FC who moved up their wedding due to a cancer diagnosis.

Just as filming commenced, Amy received her own cancer diagnosis. Nevertheless, she expressed her unwavering determination for the show to proceed.

“I encountered these remarkable individuals, presented them with a challenge, provided them with their dance shoes, and began instructing them on parts of the routine. I felt it wouldn’t be fair to deprive them of this experience,” she explained.

“I didn’t want them to suffer due to my cancer diagnosis. That’s when my Strictly family stepped in and saved the day.”

Amy remained involved with the program until her surgery, at which point she enlisted the assistance of Strictly professionals Dianne Buswell and Graziano Di Prima, along with former Strictly dancers Oti Mabuse and Chloe Hewitt, to continue coaching.”

Creating the program and expressing her passion for dance served as her “escape from reality,” allowing her to momentarily set aside her struggles.

She expressed, “Dancing has consistently carried me through my toughest moments. When I was filming, I could momentarily forget about my battle with cancer. It truly provided solace during that challenging period of my life.”

She expresses, “I’m almost back to being the Amy I used to be.” Amy, who also battles Crohn’s disease, a condition marked by inflammatory bowel symptoms diagnosed during her teenage years, experiences unpredictable flare-ups that have necessitated hospitalization in the past.

After enduring complications with blood clots following her cancer treatment, she expressed feeling “robbed” of her year and admitted to still processing the trauma she’s endured. Her primary aspiration now is to achieve full recovery and return to the dancefloor.

“Whether it involves teaching at my dance academy, reuniting with my Strictly family, or simply dancing and choreographing with my husband, that’s where I find true happiness. It’s been my solace, my medicine, in a sense,” she shared.

Her ultimate goal is to return to the Strictly dancefloor, if they’ll have her back.

The talented dancer has been raring to go after experiencing the disappointment of missing out on last season due to health concerns. On her social media, she recently expressed her eagerness to get back to the glitz and glam of the Strictly ballroom. Her dedication and passion for dance are truly inspiring, and we can’t wait to see her grace our screens once again.

Here’s hoping that the upcoming season will be the perfect stage for Amy’s triumphant return! Are you as excited as we are for the possibility of Amy Dowden lighting up the dance floor once more? Let’s keep our fingers crossed and show our support for this incredible dancer!
