‘DWTS’ Pro Allison Holker Blogs the Season Finale

The Dancing With the Stars season finale was an incredible night celebrating amazing dance. It was jam-packed of your favorite music, all dance styles and all your favorite celebrity and pro pairings. The three finalists — Ginger, Paige and Nyle — danced their hearts out and gave us dance routines that will go in the DWTS history books.

They all three brought something so different. Ginger brought her sweetheart, lovable personality and smile, Paige brought the fire and technique, while Nyle inspired a nation with his incredible story. Being a finalist is a huge accomplishment and a special feeling that only those that have been there can fully understand. DWTS is such a mental and physical challenge throughout the season, and so few get to feel the power of competing in the finals — it is an overwhelmingly joyous, proud moment that you will take with you forever.

When Nyle and Peta were announced as the winners, the energy in that ballroom was contagious and electric. I felt that he would win after just week one. I’m so proud of Nyle — his journey was beautiful and exciting to follow. He has shared so much of himself and will be an incredible representative for DWTS. This is a huge accomplishment and one he clearly worked so hard for. Congratulations Nyle, and good luck on the rest of your incredible journey.

Thanks for following along with my blog and I hope to see you next season!
