Bethany Hamilton story coming to the big screens

Many people who participate in Dahn yoga are interested in inspirational stories and life changing possibilities. One of the most incredible true stories is that of Bethany Hamilton, the teenager surfer who lost an arm to a shark. Her story has now been made into a motion picture.

AnnaSophia Robb will star as the 13-year-old girl who has a passion for surfing in the movie, "Soul Surfer". Hamilton lost her arm to a 14-foot tiger shark in 2003, according to ET Online.

However, Hamilton continued to pursue her dream of becoming a professional surfer and less than a month after her accident, she returned to the sport.

Carrie Underwood, the country music singer, stars in the movie, along with Dennis Quaid and Helen Hunt.

"Soul Surfer" is due out in theaters on Friday, April 8.

Hamilton's website is bethanyhamilton.com, on which she provides information about her current lifestyle and exercise habits. She is also on Twitter and has appeared in multiple magazines.
