Frontline Worker Performs Ballet In Mask And Scrubs At Hospital

Occasionally there is a unique talent that shows up in unexpected places. In this video, a frontline worker performs ballet in a mask and scrubs at the hospital.


At the start of this clip, a young man dressed in scrubs and wearing a mask begins to perform in the lobby at a Salt Lake City, Utah hospital. His name is Teva Martinson. In an effort to brighten the day of others, he brought the joy of dance into the building.

Teva breaks out some serious ballet moves. He spins beautifully into a plié. The camera turns to a pianist accompanying him in the incredible moment. Teva kicks his leg gracefully as he spins. The young man is clearly classically trained by the way he shares his dance seemingly without much effort. He chassés his way around to the music. The medical worker has great poise and precision. His footwork is strong and he has incredible core strength.

Teva reminds us to praise God even on the hard days and in difficult places. We may not be dancers, but we can worship the Lord with our gifts and point others to Him. The Bible tells us to shine the light of Christ in this dark world. The way in which Teva shines in the hospital encourages us too to brighten the days of others. Ultimately as believers, the hope is to share the true Light of the World who is Christ. With the help of the Spirit, we can shine for Jesus and point those around to Him and His great love.

“In the same way, let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven.” Matthew 5:16
