"I have Alexa for the switch-up and she's awesome. She has an amazing capacity for movement. She can truly be a great dancer," Hough wrote. My goal with her is polishing everything. I want refinement and to make her look clean and strong. We have a pretty cool concept in mind too for our tango. It's only her second ballroom dance after her first this week, but I don't feel like she's behind or anything. She's doing great and learns quickly. I also teach differently on the show than I would in a regular class, like how to do the proper technique for the tango frame. I think we all do on some level because of the constraints of the show. For me, it works better in this setting even if it's not the proper way to teach it. You always have to adapt on the show."
Meanwhile, Irwin will work with Val Chmerkovskiy this week, while Paula Deen gets Ballas.
Dancing With the Stars airs Mondays at 8 p.m. ET/PT on ABC.
