When I found out we were going last, I was incredibly excited.
That meant they loved our dance and felt like we had really something to show.
That we could basically close out the premiere ofDancing with the Stars.

But it also comes with a lot of pressure too.
Josh is amazing at controlling his nerves.
Im proud of him, he absolutely crushed it.
Im sad that people arent going to see more of him.
And to be honest, I was unbelievably surprised.
He was a legend in baseball.
Again, two people are going to to go home every week.
Its just brutal at this point.
This four-week season has me thrown for a loop!
That team dance is usually a freestyle kind of dance, a little jive, a little jazzy.
We have been practicing all of it all the time.
People were traveling and it was really difficult for everybody to get together.
My choreography process is that once I get the song, I listen to it about 1,000 times.
I figure out my creative, my story, and my staging first.
For me, steps come last.
Are you conscious of the fact that you dont want to draw too much attention to yourself?
Because we are professional dancers, we can easily upstage our partners.
If you focus on your own dancing and not theirs, that essentially is what is going to happen.
As a pro, you have to learn its not about you.
Its not about your dancing.
We are focusing on that more than our own performance.
You are kind of smiling and talking at the same time.
But apparently there are new restrictions on Zorro and our legal team told us we cannot copy him.
This one is a work in progress.
Dancing with the Starsairs Monday at 8 p.m.
