• The dancer has announced that she will no longer fly abroad for an international festival she was billed to be part of this month
• Qubales, the dancer's manager, shared a video of her opening up about her career-threatening injury for the first time

Ghanaian dancer Endurance Grand has pulled out of an upcoming dance festival in Amsterdam where she was billed to perform.

The Afro Drip festival, which runs from May 23 to 25, will continue as planned without the involvement of the Ghanaian dance superstar.

Endurance Grand first announced the gig in January with an artwork communicating her addition to the festival's talent roster.

"Welcome @endurancegrand to AFRO DRIP DANCE CAMP 🙏🏼❤️ member of Dwp representing Afropop and azonto throughout the world with lots of experience in choreographing, teaching and showcasing her talents around the world. She’s coming to Amsterdam to give us her sauce ❤️🙏🏼 we are more than excited to have you," the post read.

On May 22, Endurance Grand's manager from the DWP Academy, Quables, confirmed Endurance Grand's decision to pull out of the festival due to health reasons.

"Hey everyone, unfortunately, Endurance won’t be able to attend the upcoming @afrodripdancecamp festival as planned due to an injury. She’s prioritising her health and recovery right now. We appreciate your understanding and support during this time. We’ll keep you updated on any future events!" her manager confirmed.

Endurance Grand talks about her injury

In the video by Quables, Endurance Grand opened up about her leg injury, which has many fans and colleagues concerned.

The dancer's situation was first spotted at the Pulse All-Star Games, held at the East Legon Wembley Plus Astroturf on May 1.

There, the highly athletic and sporty dancer was seen limping with the assistance of a walking stick.

According to Endurance Grand, she has been diagnosed with an ACL and Meniscus tear.

"I sustained a knee injury. I have an ACL and Meniscus tear."

Reports indicate that meniscus tears can typically heal within 3 months, while ACL tears can take 6-12 months for full recovery, depending on treatment and the severity of the injury.

It's unclear what steps have been taken to ensure the DWP dancer gets back on her feet.

In a recent video sighted by YEN.com.gh, Endurance Grand was seen on crutches. The dancer had a knee brace on her right leg.

A knee brace is a medical device that stabilises your knee joint and holds it in place. Healthcare providers use braces to protect and support your knee after an injury or knee surgery.
