Group dances!! I love the Victorian themed Viennese waltz for Team Past and think it was one of the best team dances we have ever seen. 38 out of 40.
Team Future’s dance was….different to say the least. They did a good job showcasing each couple, yet it came together beautifully. 35 out of 40
Results! Maureen and Artem and Jana and Gleb are in jeopardy. In this seventh week of competition, the couple leaving is Maureen and Artem. I am sad, I really liked them.
Tune in next week!!
