Week 8 – The Immunity and the Dance Off
Carlos and Witney danced a Salsa in honour of Marc Anthony to “Valio La Pena” by Marc Anthony and it was pretty good for his first Salsa ever. He needs to work on some technique with footwork and rib cage motion. His hands kept slipping out of grip with his partner. Overall, it was ok. They scored 9,9,9 totalling 27
Alek and Lindsay danced a Contemporary Routine in honour of American Sniper Chris Kyle to “Holding Out For A Hero” by Ella Mae Bowen. It was very good. However, one of the dismounts of the lift went wrong and she could of put more things for him to do versus just lifts- but it was nice to watch. They scored 9,8,8 totalling 25
Andy and Allison danced a Viennese Waltz in honour of Stevie Wonder to “Isn’t She Lovely” by Stevie Wonder. It was very good but Allison looked like she was pulling him along. He needs to improve on his posture. Timing was off a bit as well. They scored 8,7,7, totalling 22.
Alexa and Mark danced an Argentine Tango in honour of David and Goliath to “Viva La Vida” by Coldplay and it was very good. However, she slipped twice and it couldn’t be covered up. She did a great dance and portrayed the part well. They scored 9,8,8 totalling 25.
Nick and Sharna danced a Contemporary Routine in honour of his wife Lauren to “Can’t Help Falling In Love” by Haley Reinhart and it was so beautiful. I loved it! It was very moving and he danced it well. Some of his lines could of finished a little better, but overall I loved it. They scored 10,10,10 totalling 30
Bindi and Derek danced a Foxtrot in honour of Grace Kelly to “Grace Kelly” by Mika and it was very, very good. It was fun to watch. She gives it her all. She just needs to work on her shoulders, they rise a little too high. They scored 10,9,9 totalling 28
Tamar and Val danced a Paso Doble in honour of Toni Braxton to “Born This Way” by Lady Gaga and it was very good. I felt there was a disconnect. She also didn’t shape as much as she could of . They scored 9,9,10 totalling 28
