Previously, on The Next Pro...

Daniela Karagaj!

I want to challenge you all to create your own unique wow moves.

And it is not an easy challenge.

Just want it to be right.

It's just something that I've been dreaming about since I'm a little girl.

We just gotta keep fighting.

That's a wow moment.

Thank you so much. You didn't just have one wow moment. You excelled yourself.

The wow is in the silence.

I need a little bit more.

You were aware of the brief. This will be the last dance for Eric.

Please welcome back Shirley and Mark Ballas. Woo! Great to see you too. How are ya?

There's only five of you left. And the finale is just around the corner.

Mark, how should our dancers be dealing with the pressure?

Mental stamina goes hand in hand with physical stamina.

To be a pro, you need the courage to push through mental and physical fatigue

and still be a pillar of strength for your partner.

We know you're all great dancers, but on Dancing with the Stars,

just producing a beautiful dance is not enough.

Your partner will be relying on you 100%.

Being in the top five feels absolutely amazing,

but with the semi -final being around the corner, anything can happen. Nobody's safe.

It's time for a moment that I've been waiting for.

Our guest judge, and this is an exciting one.

She is a two -time Dancing with the Stars winner and someone that I've had the

honour of dancing with quite a lot.

And please give it up for one of my best buds, it's Whitney Carson!

She looks amazing.

She looks amazing.

Amazing.

Oh my gosh!

That was so good!

I had to hold myself back from joining in. That looked like fun. Wow.

Buddy, you know you couldn't have kept up with me. Oh! Jimmy!

It's really good to see you though, Robert.

Truly. Yeah, you too. Well, you have set our dancers a very important challenge this week.

Yes. Dancers, the fact that you are still here proves you have the technique and the

choreographic talent to be a pro.

Now it's time for you to tackle the most fundamental skill you'll need on

Dancing with the Stars. Teaching an amateur. Okay.

Oh my gosh. I absolutely adore coaching. My students are my life.

Back in Philadelphia, I have a studio that I manage.

Amazing students that I get to teach of all ages.

No one really turns to you and looks at you like your students do.

This is a pro's most testing role. And being great at it is just non -negotiable.

This challenge goes to the very core of the job on Dancing with the Stars.

If you can't teach an amateur, you should not be on the show. Getting real?

Yeah. For this challenge, each of you will be dancing a ballroom routine with fans of

Dancing with the Stars. And you'll only have two days to get them ready to perform.

I'm feeling a ton of pressure.

Thank you, judges.

Thank you. I've only been doing ballroom for three years.

So, teaching an adult that has no ballroom experience at all, it's nerve -wracking.

Okay, dancers. Now, remember, at the end of this challenge, one of you will be going home.

But for now, let's meet the five fans of the show that will be your dance partners.

They are social media influencers. They are social media influencers.

Woo!

Jeremy Uran.

Oh, my God! Zaira Isabel.

Jay Weissen. Bailey McKnight. And Anthony Ricardo.

What's up?

Are you ready, guys? Now, let's go to the ball.

Are you ready?

Yeah. Yeah. Okay, good. I love to hear that.

Well, you've made a random draw of which fan you're partnered with and their dance style.

And while they have some dance experience, none of them are trained in ballroom.

Let's see who you're paired with tonight.

AJ, go join your partner, Bailey,

dancing the Viennese Waltz.

I'm excited. I'm happy. Hey, Selena, you're with Jeremy performing a quick step.

Get over here, baby! Of course I got the tallest person as the shortest girl.

We're a whole foot apart.

This is going to be fun. Alan, you'll be dancing with Zaira. And your style is the waltz.

Adele is with Anthony dancing a tango. Thank you. I'm so excited. Me too.

Nina, I think you've connected the dots. Yay! You're dancing with Jay.

Hello, so nice to meet you. Good to meet you too. You'll be dancing a foxtrot.

We're going to make it foxy.

Good luck to you all.

Woo! Thank you. Thank you. It's going to be so good.

This week we're really

challenging the dancers with the toughest challenge yet. Hey!

Teach an amateur dancer a ballroom style in just two days.

Yay!

Pros on Dancing with the Stars get two weeks to train their new partners before the show starts.

Gorgeous.

So this is the ultimate test to see if they can handle being a pro on the show.

Welcome to the studio.

Thank you. You know when you were standing there amongst all the guys, I was like,

I wish I could get this guy.

I don't know why, but I got the vibe that you know how to move and you know how to dance.

I love to dance. Definitely have it in my blood,

but I usually dance in front of my phone with my sisters.

I make a lot of recreation videos of Dancing with the Stars,

but my ballroom dance experience is absolutely zero.

Tango is actually a very good pick if you have the character. Okay. We have two days.

So we're going to learn the steps. It's not going to be easy, but you're going to make it work.

Okay. When I'm coaching, the bar that I'm setting for myself as a teacher is really,

really high because I want to do it and make it look like a tango.

I go whoom and you go on my hips. Okay. Again.

I'm very detailed about the quality of the movement and... I'm sorry.

I want it to get to perfection. Okay. Because that is what the judges want to see.

So it's here, here.

Stop.

We are late.

Okay. Am I just taking too many steps?

You're taking them too fast.

Too fast.

And too many. Too many.

Adele as a teacher is definitely strict. No.

No. Wait, where I am? I'm still here.

Still didn't close my leg. Tango is very stern.

So it's very tough to keep that posture and that pose.

Make it as a process, but don't be late.

Okay.

You are going to have the sharp foot out. That is a no. That ankle, there. Exactly.

I'm a commercial dancer, so this is my first time teaching somebody a quick step. Drop.

The weight stays on this foot. Shh.

We're almost at finale. So pressure is on, but my coaching style is...

I will drill it over and over again until it is perfect. Closer. Again.

We're going to keep drilling this.

I didn't know I was signing up for the army, honey.

I'm not really feeling like I can shine in the movement so far.

I love those show -stopping moments when it comes to dance.

I do lifts and tricks, so I'm not sure this is the best thing for my body.

And Jeremy, the lifter. I'm waiting for when I get to do a super Jeremy thing.

In standard ballroom, you typically don't do lifts.

That's a rule.

Yes. Oh. But we can do a little twist around where my feet stay on the floor. Yeah.

As a coach, I do not want Jeremy to not feel hurt. I can work with a rule. Okay, rules. Okay.

Yeah. Classic DMT. Yeah.

And Jeremy has a bubbly, fun personality.

Faster. You see how pretty that is?

Wait, that's so pretty. Woo!

That's the cherry on top.

Yup. Exactly. Yeah. Ah! Yes! I love that! Yes!

Yes! We're already more than halfway done, Justina.

What? Okay.

Brilliant. I've been coaching adults for over ten years.

Three, nine. It's okay. It's okay. That happens.

The best thing you can do is stay calm, stay present. So this is right up my alley. Five.

Oh my God. I'm in heaven right now. Oh my, it's okay. This is amazing.

In order to succeed this week, my goal is to keep the routine simpler.

Because this week is not just about how I can dance,

it's about how I can teach Zyra to become the best dancer she can be. Three, five.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, you had it. What? You had it. You had it.

I love hip hop, and I am completely self -taught, but I'm very used to quick steps.

Learning the slower types of ballroom is a bit harder. And now step, beautiful.

See how fast you're learning it.

Yeah. Also that you're a great teacher, so give yourself some credit.

Thank you. Heel toe. Toe. Heel toe. Quick, quick, quick, quick, quick, quick, quick.

AJ's teaching style is fast. I have literally zero ballroom experience.

Growing up, I did like a little bit of song and dance and drill team,

which is like DCC cheerleader energy. Now, I'm having to learn technique.

AJ's known his whole life. What?

Wait, what's the footwork? Heel first. Heel first. You said it, but you didn't do it.

I have so much experience coaching.

The best coaches understand what the student needs before the student even needs it.

Pivot and on the spa. Bailey needs to get all these steps in her body.

Practice and experiment. And she needs to be told exactly where her feet need to be.

So, quick little bit of feedback for you.

I'm going to be very critical throughout all this, but it's in front, in front and side behind.

I've done four years on Strictly Come Dancing, but we get double, triple this amount of time.

And as you drive four on the heel, that's your energy.

That's Bailey. I've got two days.

I need to make sure I pull this one off.

It's a lot for anywhere taken.

Keep your body flat. Where's my posh jerk?

Oh. Uh -huh. I've done it the shoulders wide.

So, just because you're focused on the legs,

doesn't mean that this gets to come up here.

I coach basically every single day of the week.

In order to be a good coach, you really need to be able to analyze the person

that you're working with.

Say hello to my little friends.

You can't teach everybody the exact same way. Boxtride is a very smooth dance.

You can tell somebody a million times, pick up your elbow.

But if they don't remember the feeling, they're never going to do it. Don't let those drop.

Very nice. Good, good, good, good, good.

I would be completely lying if I said I knew a lot about the Foxtrot.

People know me primarily from my Instagram,

TikTok pages where I'm dancing with my motorcycle helmet.

So, this is worlds different from the dancing I've done on my socials. Okay.

Oh. You feel this?

Yeah.

We only have two days to learn this dance.

Nice.

Oh. Yeah. The fact that I have not learned any Foxtrot kind of stresses me out.

Woo. Listen. Dance is a sport. Beauty is pain.

You enjoy yourself. I'm going to bench here.

Thank you. How are you feeling about teaching again?

I missed it, actually. I missed it, too, honestly.

So, it seems like teaching is bringing back a little bit of light into everybody's life.

How is your guy?

Jay's energy is just infectious. Like, he's a hip hopper.

So, I was really just trying to educate him on where his posture needs to be.

And I had him all, like, strapped up with contraptions and everything.

I put the blocks on his elbows. That's awesome.

How about you? Yeah, I want to hear about Jeremy. I drilled him like crazy.

I was like, okay, again. Again. Again.

How's Anthony doing? He's good. But we didn't sit down for, like, a second, even.

Before I was vanished tonight.

It was, yeah.

How was Zyra? Amazing. She learned the choreo in 45 minutes.

I'm going to be honest.

I was so focused on where Jay's posture needs to be that we might be a step

back compared to all of the other dancers.

He was fantastic. We already finished all the choreo.

It's going to be another big day in rehearsals tomorrow.

If I don't go 150 freaking percent, I am going home. I think we need to sleep tomorrow.

Again. How's your body? Not too bad, actually.

How do you feel after day one?

So sore.

So sore. I'm ready to be back.

Good.

Let's get your shoes on.

This week is coaching.

The dancers must teach their novice partner a ballroom style in just two days.

If you want to be a pro on Dancing with the Stars,

coaching non -dancers is a skill you have to have.

To assess their progress, Shirley, Mark,

and I are passing by each room to watch their coaching style so that we can

correctly judge them. It's just about making sure that you bring your celebrity up to that elite

level, make them feel confident, and make them shine. Five, six, seven, eight.

What did I tell you about your left foot? Sorry. Three and four.

Why do I feel like you're rushing me?

I got a little confused a little bit.

One more time.

She's a no -nonsense teacher. I can tell.

One, two, three, four.

Two, okay.

Cross behind. One more time. Yesterday, we got the routine done.

I'm not counting, that's why.

Count. And today, I really want to use the time that I have cleaning the routine and

make it work as perfect as it can be.

Five, five, six, seven, eight.

Don't straighten the elbow so much, because then I have to straighten. Okay. This is wrong.

This is the type of routine that I would make the celebrities do.

I mean, I'd have a lot more time, so I don't know if I'd put that many steps.

I know what you're saying, I just, like, my mind, I have to, like, think.

Adele's given Anthony a lot of steps. I'm very worried about this turn.

This one?

Yeah. I think that she's trying to prove something here. Not correct.

And it could pay off, but it's such a big risk with a ballroom novice and just

two days of training.

This is hard. And this is that moment to allow you to enjoy that line.

With Shirley, Mark, and Whitney in the rehearsal room. I don't even look at them. Relax into it.

You don't throw energy at everything.

What I'm going to be doing is putting all my time into coaching my partner, Bailey.

That's what my time in the studio is about.

Finding your direction to that corner.

Yeah.

Even if the student cannot execute, he is giving the correct information. Sure.

When you're doing the heel lead, you go. Allow. I allow you to pass.

You see, man? If you don't go, I can't move.

Everything that AJ does is very clear.

Staying where you are, waiting.

And that makes it very easy for the celebrity or the fan to be guided. I just love it.

It's just everything I like to see.

One, two. My foot is on your side. And then, right, so where's the foot placement? Here.

Right in between. That's it.

Alan's coaching style is great.

You can tell that he is comfortable and he knows what he's doing.

Boom.

And beautiful.

Their routine looks really solid as well. I like the flow of it. I think it's nice.

So I'm really looking for Alan to amp it up in the details and really make her shine.

Two and three, two, three, four, five. Elbow. Shoulders. Boom. See that?

This is my first time teaching somebody a quick step.

All the other dancers do this for a living. And we're a full foot apart. How do I say this?

I'm gonna work around your foot. So I'm feeling like an underdog.

Elbow has to be kind of like directly. Yes.

We're at the point in the competition where it comes down to little things now. Let's try this.

Around. Yeah, he's a big guy, but he's also extremely bubbly and fun.

And that's what we're gonna show the judges.

I like that she's using him as her advantage. That's great. But did we see much quick step?

That was literally what I was about to say.

Selena's routine right now is just very unbalanced.

There's like a missing step or a beat or something.

The quick step is very hard if you don't have a lot of knowledge of quick step. Let's change it.

Let's do something you're comfortable with.

My job is to see if that professional has the fundamentals in order to teach a

person how to dance. Quick step. Take this one out.

Good.

Stay with me.

Stay with me.

I haven't even finished cleaning up the choreography.

You are actually gonna have a heel lead.

Okay.

So to have them watching. Pressure is on.

It's hard to like be turning around. It's very jazzy moment.

Small. Nina should be cleaning up the routine by now. Not still teaching the choreography.

Do you see how you're already, you're like, you're getting a little bit.

Ahead of myself.

A little ahead of yourself, but there was a saying that I was looking for,

but I don't remember what it is. I'm feeling like Nina and Jay are behind. You have your Rondé.

Rondé. Like, I don't understand that.

Nina's big mistake is not using the time wisely.

Open up the frame, essentially. Well, we don't open up the frame, but we open up the attention.

I'm really hoping that Nina can dial in on the routine.

And making sure he gets the steps, because without the steps,

then we have nothing to really judge on.

Thank you. Thank you guys.

You don't know what a challenge it's gonna be.

You watch from your couch and you're like, I could kill that.

And then you're in that room and you're like, oh, this could kill me.

Yeah.

Tired and sore.

Tired. But feeling good.

Yeah. Okay. This is just really for me to get honest feedback about your coach.

This is the toughest challenge that the dancers have had to go through so far.

So it's gonna be really telling to see if they can handle being a pro. And we'll start with Jay.

You have...

Foxtrot.

Foxtrot. Foxtrot. With Nina?

It was a slice of humble pie. Oh my God. Yeah, for sure. Yeah.

It's the posture that's like the really tough part because she pulled out a

rubber exercise band and tied my shoulders back.

Wow. Oh my goodness.

It had my shoulders back. It was doing its job. Okay.

But just trying to progress through it, it was like, I don't really know what we're doing. Yeah.

Yeah. And so it was challenging. Wow.

Hey, Zyra. Alan is such an amazing partner.

And the way that he taught me, it was very, very slow, very considerate.

I feel like I learned so much just to feel comfortable in the trust with him. I love that.

Jeremy, how did you feel?

I would say Selena could have been a military combat instructor.

She would not move on from a movement until it was perfect.

I thought at first she was a little relentless,

but we had a moment where we stopped and I asked her if she would consider Mick

throwing in some things that play to my strengths. And she did.

And now the routine is like the merge of us. And I really admire that in someone.

Okay. I love that. What about you, Bailey?

AJ was literally straight into the choreography.

And sometimes I felt like we should have maybe slowed down through each step.

But he's so passionate about this dance and dancing in general. And that really shines through.

And Anthony, you have the tango with Adele.

Yes. Very, very difficult.

As soon as I walked in, Adele and I jumped right into it and she was like, Nope, we're doing it.

Let's just go. And she was very strict. She said, I think the nerves really hit me.

As soon as I walked in, I was like, Oh my God, this is happening.

So I didn't know what to do or what was going on, but it's a, it's a tough one for sure. Yeah.

Okay. You guys are kind of all in different spots. So I want to do a little exercise.

I want you guys to close your eyes and put up your hands.

And I want to see how are you guys feeling?

10 being the most confident, one being the least confident. You don't want to perform.

Okay. You can open your eyes.

That's what I'm at too.

What did you have?

Four.

Four is really low. Building confidence is the most important skill of coaching.

So I'm a little worried if Adele and Anthony can pull off this routine.

It's almost showtime.

We're ready to go. I'm nervous.

It's a very big day. A lot of responsibility.

I've gained a lot of respect for ballroom.

Wow. Dancers and Dancing with the Stars super fans. You guys look amazing. You feeling ready?

Yeah, let's do it.

Oh yeah.

Dancers, this week, you took a very big step in what it takes to become a pro

on Dancing with the Stars.

You all became coaches and you are about to show us just how well you've mastered that art form.

Remember, this performance decides who makes the semi -final.

But the dancer that doesn't measure up to the judges' expectations will be going home.

We wish you all the best. Good luck. Thank you.

Thank you.

Oh gosh, this is the hardest part.

Buckle up. Our first couple tonight is Nina and Jay.

We're going to just take a second. Okay. To breathe. Breathe center.

There is so much riding on this performance.

Teaching something so technical in the matter of two days, that's a really difficult feat.

Remember that when we're connected.

We need to put on a Dancing with the Stars worthy performance or I'm going home.

I'm so nervous for them.

For lost time, it should

have spelled it out for me.

I don't want to give you the time and the place. So don't be shy.

Just come be the man I need. Tell me you've got something to give. I want.

Call me wonderful. Whatever the type of talk it is. Come on.

Be the man I need. Talk to me.

So Jay, congratulations and welcome to our show.

You certainly have a lovely personality.

And Nina, I can see that in the rehearsal room, you made him feel very welcome. And I love that.

But in terms of Foxtrot, tonight, there was some fundamental issues.

When it comes to actually postural elements, the hold was not correct.

The footwork was incorrect.

And also, when you dance ballroom, your feet should be in a parallel position.

There is no turnout in the ballroom. Love it.

You did have a go at doing some basic steps, so I'll give you that.

But all in all, the assignment was coaching. And I'm a stickler for technique. Understood.

Shirley's always going to come and strike technique.

Yeah. Foxtrot is a sneaky hard dance because it has so much stride and glide and it

needs to look effortless, like it's floating on a cloud. The thing for me was the frame.

You guys were so close together at times.

And I think one of the biggest reasons for that is because the butt was

sticking out, which was causing you not to glide.

We wanted to see you take a ride around the floor. Got it. All right.

Thank you.

Jay, dude, I live for the hip -hop moments. Like, I loved those moments.

Nina, I think that was so brilliant of you to put those in. Thank you.

It was just so fun to watch. I felt like, Nina, when I saw you in rehearsals,

you gave Jay a lot of information. Time management is extremely important in this job.

But really good job, you guys. Thank you. Be proud. Thank you so much.

Thank you.

We are just getting started. Next on the floor, Adele and Anthony. Come on. We got this.

We got this. I believe in us. This week, I took a risk.

The routine that I did is extremely difficult for a beginner. It has a lot of details.

And Anthony has never been on stage before.

If he pulls through, then the judges will be like, Oh my God,

I can't believe you did it with him. If he messes up, there's no second chances.

Welcome back to The Next Pro.

Our dancers have been paired with Dancing With The Stars fans in a test of

their coaching ability. Facing the judges now, Adele and Anthony.

I hope Anthony can pull it off, given how hard Adele has pushed him. Yeah.

I

got to give it to you, Adele. It moved. It had dynamics. Love that.

When we came to the rehearsal, I really appreciated the no -nonsense type of rehearsal,

given the time restraint.

And that's the only way to achieve an ambitious routine on Dancing With The Stars.

And that's what this was. It was ambitious.

Thank you. When I came into the studio, you are perfect for three Fs. Fierce. Fair.

I would just like a little bit more fun.

But the choreography, you took risks with. And I loved it.

Anthony, what was that?

When I chatted with you, you were the least confident out of all of the fans.

Without Adele, I mean, I don't think I could have done that. She is amazing.

So impressive. There was one thing I noticed right here.

Anthony went a little bit fast, and you went and put your arm to slow him down.

That is a very pro trick right there. So really, really impressed by that. Thank you so much.

Good job, you guys. Thank you. She could do the job.

Yes. Next on the floor, AJ and Bailey. Breathing.

For me, this dance is so important. Mistakes are so high.

I have nearly 20 years of coaching experience.

And I was the youngest professional on Strictly Come Dancing in the UK.

Everything I've worked on comes down to this. This one's going to be intense. I can feel it.

Beautiful. That frame looks good.

Let's see if they can hold it when they dance.

Good times or bad times, I gave you my everything.

I tried and I tried to love you through everything. Why the f*** would you say that to me?

Ain't nothing worse than somebody who lost the truth.

Nice.

You found that camera? She found the camera.

I've been 10 years trying to find one camera.

That was so good! Thank you. I loved that routine. It was so beautiful.

You can tell it was very technically sound.

AJ, I would have loved a little bit more of an emotional moment.

Part of the job is not only to create this routine,

but to also let the audience in and feel a little bit of your story.

AJ, it's crystal clear. You know your craft.

I can tell that she feels comfortable in your arms, which is so important in this job.

All in all, doing a Vini's Waltz. Traveled. It flew. Looked great. Both of you, great job.

Thank you. Thank you very much.

AJ, what you did in two days is miraculous.

Yeah.

The assignment was coaching and you absolutely killed it. I could see every step forward.

Fleckles, natural and reverse. Who would have thought? Nobody attempts them.

Not even top amateurs in some cases. And you give it to this young lady.

You are an absolute star. Well done. Thank you guys so much. Thank you. Thank you. Good job.

That's a hard act to follow. That's fact.

You're watching The Next Pro. Performing next, Alan and Zyra. Stretch.

It's all going to be good.

I believe in my coaching. I've been coaching for many, many years.

I'd rather showcase the quality of the technique and showcase that I can teach

that and that she can learn that.

God, I hope Shirley will appreciate it because it's not done clean. What's the point?

Praise God.

I loved it. Thank you. This is a partnership just filled with beauty.

The upper half of the partnership where you take the arms and you have that

sense of freedom is just beautiful. We got a little bit lost when it came to the basic steps.

You didn't quite get your feet together, Alan.

If you could just tighten up your basics,

I think that you will be a force to be reckoned with. Thank you.

I loved that performance. You could tell that you guys worked so hard together,

building that connection and that trust.

And we saw it in the rehearsal space as well.

The way that you built her confidence up was so, like, heartwarming.

And that's really important in this job because we want to make our celebrity

feel really good about performing because that's where the audience connects.

Absolutely. Alan, solid, brother. Really. Thanks, man. Great energy in rehearsal.

Like, that's a huge part of this job. Zyra, it looked like you were having a great time.

Yes.

The fact that you've had two days to learn this, you did a fantastic job. Thank you.

Thank you so much. Good job, you two.

Four impressive dancers and just one more to go. It's Selena and Jeremy.

I'm keeping my cool right now. But in my mind, I'm like, oh, my God.

This is one of the most important challenges. To be a pro, you have to coach.

Do this.

I'm just hoping I prepare Jeremy well enough that he's about to kill this performance.

I want to be able to recognize it. Tis the character of the quick step.

Take a deep breath.

It was a night.

Oh, what a night. It was really well. It was such a night. Oh, the moon was bright.

Oh, how bright it was really well. It was such a night.

Oh, the night was alive with stars above.

When she kissed me, I had to fall in love. It

was such a night. And when we kissed, I had to fall in love.

You did that.

I'm so happy I could cry. Thank you. Jeremy, you light up this room.

If you were my partner on Dancing with the Stars, I would be stoked.

Your energy is just amazing. And I loved it.

Selena, I love your jazz background because it gives you an eye for natural

ability to choreograph. Thank you. The one thing it was lacking was the quick step content.

But overall, just a really memorable performance. So thank you for that.

Thank you so much. It was fun. It had musicality. It was sharp. It was fast. It was quick.

However, it has to get around the floor, especially with a guy like this.

Out of all the dances, this is the one that can travel. But good job guys.

Well, I think if we were to give out a trophy for the million dollar smile,

you would have to be awarded it today. Having said that, the assignment, Selena, was coaching.

I want to be able to tell from here if you can coach.

And it starts with the character of the dance and the character of the quick step.

It is a traveling dance. It is not a stationary dance. I do appreciate what you performed.

And I can see that you can do all sorts and splits and kicks and go here.

But I am a rule person. And when I'm given a rule and the brief is quick step,

that is what I want to see, Selena. Yep. But well done. Anyway. Thank you. Thank you guys.

Thank you. Good job. I hate rules.

He's so sweet. He's a good man.

And done. Not yet. Now we have to pick who's going home.

We just saw five of

the most difficult performances we've asked our dancers to do all season. Carrie.

Well, Shirley, our dancers had just two days to teach absolute beginners

ballroom from the ground up. What were you all looking at in tonight's dances?

We've learned a lot tonight from all of you. Who made the right decisions?

Who has the right personality?

And who has the right level of knowledge to teach under the pressure of dancing with the stars?

All right. It's time for tonight's elimination.

One dancer is about to leave the show forever. The judges have confirmed.

Mark, who is the first dancer in Jeopardy?

The first dancer is Nina.

Shirley. Who is the second dancer in Jeopardy tonight?

The second dancer in Jeopardy is Selena.

Judges. Certainly feels like tonight was a particularly tough decision.

Both of you did a great job today.

I want to start by making you guys know that everything that we say is to help.

And I feel like both these dances just lacked a little bit of floor craft.

With these dances, they travel.

It gives the celebrity the best opportunity to shine within the genre of the

dance that is allocated.

This was a very, very difficult decision because I feel that both of you young

ladies lack knowledge. Shirley, who unfortunately

must leave the show tonight.

Tonight was the last dance for Nina.

Hurts, but I haven't cried like this in a while. Dancing for 10 years.

I didn't value myself as a dancer. And all of that changed.

And I am better than I came in here being. And I know my worth.

Congratulations on an incredible, incredible time here. You left it all out there.

You created some amazing pieces. Amazing dancing all the way through.

Well, I want to thank you for the knowledge. I want to thank you for the time.

Well, sorry to say you didn't quite make it to the end,

but you came so incredibly close and did so well the whole way.

We are really, really proud of you, Nina. Thank you. Good job, mate.

Well, good news for the rest of our dancers.

They are still in the running to be the next pro.

That is it for another huge night here under the mirror ball.

A big thanks to our dancers, our fans, and of course, our judges, Shirley,

Mark, and our guest judge, Whitney Carson.

I'm Robert Irwin, and we'll see you again right here on The Next Pro.

Next time, please welcome the Dancing with the Stars Pros.

You'll be performing two dances.

Absolute madness. Welcome to The Next Pro semifinal. I'm flying private jet right now.

I'm not even a Roller Toys.

Teaching a pro, there comes the pressure.

That can be better.

AJ is very intense.

Whitney could be judging my every move.

I'm so nervous.

For me, it lacked soul and grit.

That is the dance that will get you into the finale.

You are the new generation for Dancing with the Stars.
