I had no idea that was a UCLA/USC Grad Aerospace Engineer coming down the Soul Train line with all of that energy!! Go ahead on Wanda Knight!!
I absolutely love these stories about the soul dancers who have gone on to had highly successful careers.
So awesome right?! ❤
Cheehoo 🎉🎉 Right on gurlll ❤❤❤Proud of all of ur accomplishments 😘😘💕💕🤙🏻🤙🏻
The finest one
Then in came asian dancers😢
Thanks so much!
Wanda is probably one of the most underrated dancers from that era of Soul Train.
Thanks so much!
@@sxemba40 Thank you for your contributions to Soul Train history!
@@sxemba40 God bless you!!
I love that she said she didn’t want to be an entertainer or in the industry. She had beauty, brains, and she knew her worth, all while still having fun and enjoying herself.
In addition, you can tell she had her Father in her life and was raised around structure ( being a military kid).
Thanks so much!
The fits, the hair, the moves. Yes Miss Wanda!!! 💃🏾💃🏾
Thanks so much!
WANDA KNIGHT 🎉 What an excellent "I WAS A SOUL TRAIN DANCER" I'm grateful that we were once dance partners! Just when I thought I knew so much about you..your episode appears. This is FIRE 🔥
Thanks Marco😘
She was one of the better dancers from her era she has natural rhythm.
What an amazing woman! So grateful that she survived, and yet still thriving. Sending her love, blessings, and prayers 🙏🏾❤️⭐️
Thanks!
@@sxemba40 you’re welcome!
Congratulations Wanda and to all the other soul dance dancers who went on to be highly successful in their careers.
Thanks so much!
@@sxemba40 You’re Welcome.
Some of these people that came on the show didn't just have jobs, they had careers!
True.
She's so bad ass. Just wow.
Thanks!
What a great feature! I love that she was iconic (the hair, the fits, the dancing and the smile) on Soul Train, but still managed to earn a bachelors degree while on the show, then earned an advanced degree… and became an Aerospace Engineer!!
Thanks!
She has a very interesting background. I'm so glad she was able to persevere through her health issues.
Thanks so much!
Wanda!!!!! I've been waiting for a segment that would feature you! Wanda was one of the best dancers on Soul Train. She definitely got the ST line poppin' I was sorry to hear about your previous injury and that you were in a coma. 😥 Thank God that you're healing and still here to tell your story😃🙏👏 Thanks for such great memories and joy!
Thanks!!!
What a brilliant and talented woman! I am in awe at how she overcame that serious health challenge.
Thanks so much!
Wanda was among the first few dancers that made it into the SOULTRAINFANS community. she’s a light in this world and i’m grateful that I was able to interact with her! also, that energy she had during the new jack swing period? TOP FRIGGIN NOTCH!
Thanks so much Nick!
I enjoyed this so much! How cool that she had the opportunity to dance on "Soul Train"!!! And, an Aerospace Engineer" TOO. What a life she's had. 🤗 I'm so happy that she is alright now, after her health challenges.🙏🏽❤

So proud of Wanda for focusing on education and continuing her career. She was a excellent addition and asset to Soul Train.

Agreed, Soul Train was a one-of-a-kind Show in a one-of-a-kind era. The stars will never align like that again. It sure shined bright and pretty for many years though. And Thanks to social media the dream and vibes will live on.
Thanks so much!

Thanks!
Wanda😘😘😘😘 #Dope
Thanks so much!
@@sxemba40 😘😘😘no problem & no thank you for being you a lady/Hottie Talented Queen👑 #Salute #Beautiful #Canada #Swag
I. Love. THIS!!! ❤❤❤
😘😘😘
A new Shero to emulate. Your educational background is amazing. I love education. It saved my life. Your courage is inspiring. After three spine surgeries, I continue to learn. Thank you. Take care. ❤❤❤❤
You got this! Continue to shine!
Bravo!!! what a jewel...who knew??.....Thank you Wanda!
Thanks!
I from Harrisburg, PA too.... Didn't know she was from here😮😲
She has an awesome story! 😮
😘
What sticks out to me most from this series is that most of them still lived normal lives. Not like today where we consider everyone a celebrity for the most basic things.
Aerospace Engineer? It would be interesting to hear that story because that's still a male dominated field to this day. And being that segregation ended not long before this I'm sure she has some stories to tell.
Lastly that polka dot/Dalmation print outfit was 🔥
Thanks so much!
God bless you Wanda 🙏may you have a long and prosperous life Beautiful very intelligent lady😘
Thanks 😘
Wanda Knight she's good dancer
😘
The camera absolutely LOVED her as it should, she's fierce❤️🔥
Thanks so much!

Beautiful family! Lovely woman.
😘
She still looks young .
😘😘😘
I miss Soul Train.. I love watching clips of the 1970's (co-ed) Soul Train line. Those people were an ENTIRE VIBE 💃🏽 🕺🏾🥰🙌🏾🫶🏾
😘
So many beautiful people dancing together on Soul Train. Always a joy to watch.
Thank You Wanda Knight! Back Down Memory Lane with this post of you on soul train! Legendary Dancer❤❤
Thanks!
wow what a traumatizing experience. Glad you recovered from it (the fall and the brain bleed). Gorgeous woman though and a great dancer!!
Thanks!
This is great. You never know. Some of the dancers' names just faces and she's one of them for me. I was just looking at her come down the line to Michael Jackson's "I can't let her get away " 1992 ironically
Thanks so much! I remember that line.
You're so beautiful Wanda! So I guess there isn't a dome above us and people actually have been to the moon. There's been so many conspiracies about the moon and space.🖤
😘😘😘
I remember WANADA KNIGHT
