Allison Holker is finding her rhythm again after losing husband Stephen "tWitch" Boss.

Holker, who often went viral for her choreographed routines with the late TV personality, made her official return to dancing recently, uploading a couple joyful dance videos to social media.

And, in a new post shared August 26, the So You Think You Can Dance alum explained that the decision to dance again was a bittersweet one. "Truly felt so good to dance again," she captioned a video that featured her dancing with choreographer Brittany Russell. "I was overwhelmed with so many emotions."

She continued, "I was both scared and excited. But dance has always been there for me… even now and I am so grateful for that."

As she wrapped up her honest update, Holker thanked Russell for making the whole experience "fun" and "safe" for her.

Holker's famous friends were quick to offer up their love and support in the comments. For instance, Selling Sunset's Chrishell Stause commented, "Love this."

Full House alum Jodie Sweetin chimed in, "Yes!!! Yes!!! Keep dancing mama… ❤️❤️."

Dancing With the StarsPeta Murgatroyd added, "Love to see it! ❤️❤️❤️"

Prior to this upload, Holker was joined by 15-year-old daughter Weslie for a silly "vibe" video. In the footage uploaded to TikTok, the mother-daughter duo danced around while joking that their "life is a mess."

On Dec. 14, Holker—who is also a mom to kids Maddox, 7, and Zaia, 3—confirmed that the Ellen DeGeneres Show DJ had passed away. The 40-year-old had died by suicide.

"Stephen lit up every room he stepped into," she wrote at the time. "He valued family, friends and community above all else and leading with love and light was everything to him. He was the backbone of our family, the best husband and father, and an inspiration to his fans."

"To say he left a legacy would be an understatement, and his positive impact will continue to be felt," she continued. "I am certain there won't be a day that goes by that we won't honor his memory. We ask for privacy during this difficult time for myself and especially for our three children."
