A 5,6,7,8! I would never have thought that I would be in a dance studio taking Dance Lessons With Dancing With The Stars Troupe, but that’s exactly what we did last week during our Guardians of the Galaxy Vol 2 press event.  

Thank you Disney for inviting to the #GotGVol2Event. All shaking opinions are my own.

Dance Lessons With Dancing With The Stars Troupe #DWTS #ABCTVEvent

I do have a dancing background, and my mom would be so proud to know that those dance lessons paid off this past week. It can be pretty intimidating dancing in front of professionals, but the Dancing with the Stars dance troupe were very patient and pleasant with us. 

 

Troupe members Artur Adamski, Alan Bersten, Brandon Armstrong, Brittany Cherry, and Britt Stewart took their time teaching us a simple salsa choreography. We were then split into small groups to practice some more.

The Dancing with the Stars troupe is a group of immensely talented dancers who perform on every episode in special dance routines and as backup dancers with the celebrities & professional dancers. They also sometimes sub in for an injured dance pro, as troupe member Alan Bersten is doing now for Maksim Chmerkovskiy. He’s dancing with actress Heather Morris while Maks is healing from an injury.

 Check out this fun video of us dancing with troupe member Brittany CherrY!


We all then performed our dances along with our Dancing with the Stars troupe members. We all had a grand and unforgettable time. This brought back so many memories from dancing in a dance studio and learning choreography. 

Make sure to watch Dancing with the Stars on ABC Monday nights at 8 pm EST.
