Dance Battle

So… this happened. My former boss contacted me about auditioning with a group that she put together for a new show called Dance Battle, produced by Samantha Hanks and set to premier tonight after Dancing with the Stars. The show is really the brain child of Julianne Hough and Maria Menounos. My team didn’t make it, but we were among the final groups being considered and got paid to work with professional choreographers for a few days. It was a tremendous experience.

After working with our choreographers Kristen and Tony for a couple of days, it was obvious that they were the real deal. You would never guess, but Kristen has 4-month old twins. Each choreographer joins the show with a long list of impressive work experience, including television shows and international tours, but what makes them great is their extreme talent and skill in their craft as dancers and teachers. Though my favorite dancer will forever be my sister-in-law, they were so fun to work with!

Following rehearsals, we were put on standby to fill in if another team ended up not being able to make the recording session, but HELLO who would miss that? So, we were invited to the recording.
For the recording, all the stars were out, Julianne Hough and her brother Derek Hough, Maria Menounos, Janice Dickenson, Samantha Hanks, hosts Alfonso Ribeiro and Jordin Sparks, and my mom. They all looked fabulous.

Working with the professionals and going into the dance studio was like a whole nother world, and if I am being honest, it was a lot of fun to be a part of it for a couple of days.

Anyway, be sure to watch the show. I’m sure it will be entertaining.
