Dancing With The Stars Lessons! | Mentors Brandon Armstrong, Alan Bersten & Gleb Savchenko #DWTSTour Friday 25 January, 2019
I was hosted and sponsored with an all-expense paid trip to Los Angeles to cover #DisneysNutcrackerEvent #DWTS #DWTSJuniors #ABCTVEvent. Thank you Disney for the opportunity!

Alan Bersten, Brandon Armstrong and Gleb Savchenko our mentors for the DWTS lessons
We broke into three groups, We all were a group that went along with one of the Four Realms from Disney’s Nutcracker. I was in the Sugarplum Group. We all learned the same choreographer, but broke up into group to be paired with a Pro DWTS mentor.
The Sugarplum group with Brandon Armstrong
I had the pleasure of being in DWTS Pro Mentor Brandon Armstrong. We literally had 10 mins to learn the routine and the we presented it to the other bloggers amongst each other.
The dance we learned a waltzy dance routine to “Fall On Me” from Disney’s Nutcracker and the Four Realms. I have NEVER done ballroom dancing before, but the routine was pretty simple. Brandon was very energetic and wanted us to be the top group to perform so he showed up the routine and gave us the energy to retain and perform it for everyone else.
Look I am no ballroom dancer, I never done ballet a day in my life but I tried. I think I did pretty decent for the short amount of time I had to learn the choreography. Check out my group doing the routine below!
Thank you Jana Seitzer of Whisky + Sunshine for the video footage of this performance.
This event was lots of fun and thanks to Gleb for letting us learn to dance at his studio space!

I’d never be able to learn a routine in 10 minutes, I am so uncoordinated! But what a cool opportunity to experience a taste of what those stars work hard for every week!
Fun! I have danced since childhood and even went to a performing arts high school for ballet and hip hop. A class featuring the DWTS crew would be awesome!
How fun! I would love to participate in something like this. 🙂 I love to dance. My mother-in-law was in Dancing with the Stars in our country and she made it to the 3rd spot!
Aren’t you lucky you got to experience this. I know I am no dancer apart from flapping my hands or moving side to side but this would just make me happy just for the experience, you did pretty well.
I haven’t watched DWTS in years but this Looks like a really fun time. And I did not know that there was a new Nutcraker film but I am thinking my grand wee one might really like it, so I will look for it.Thanks.
This is so awesome, I bet it was so much fun to partake in this. I would love to do something like this one day but for now, I’ll settle for watching it live. I will be looking for the next Dancing With The Stars around our area.
Dancing is such a great and fun way to be part of something and to workout! I used to dance when I was young and it’s good to know how to dance. Be with the rhythm.
Wow! This looks like this was not only a lot of fun…but pretty tiring too! But how often can you say that you got to literally dance with these amazing dancers?! Thanks for this post.
