Derek Hough: Amy Purdy's A Fast Learner
Derek Hough makes silly faces with a fan outside the dance studio on Thursday afternoon (April 10) in Los Angeles.
The 27-year-old dance met up with his partner Amy Purdy for more rehearsals for their waltz on Dancing With The Stars next week.
“It’s awesome to be back with Amy again. We have the waltz this week and it’s our first ballroom dance, so we’re starting from scratch a little bit,” Derek writes in his weekly blog.
He continues, “It was a little rough in the beginning, but I think it’s going to be OK. We’re figuring it out. With ballroom and the waltz, the technique has a lot of rises and falls and poses and ankle movements to create a certain flow. She hasn’t done any of that yet in the dances we’ve had, so it takes some adjusting, but Amy‘s a fast learner…I’m really excited about the routine. It’s lighthearted and I think it’s going to be a really sweet dance.”
