this show. The practices ( many late hours) lead to injuries.. sprains, ankles/ etc which should be of concern. My wife and I watch it every year and while somewhat staged ( fan favorites get higher scores) there are many pros and stars with problems.

Lots of stress.. Hopefully she gets eliminated early.

Even many of the athletes comment that the dance rehearsals and routines require a lot of physical work, and they get in even better shape.

That doesn’t mean, though, the four-week show won’t be stressful, although perhaps not as stressful as Notre Dame’s NCAA tournament run. The first episode airs a week before final exams begin.

A Notre Dame spokesman said Ogunbowale’s dance partner, Gleb Savchenko, accompanied by a camera crew, has relocated to South Bend, Ind., for rehearsals. The show’s wardrobe department has FaceTimed Ogunbowale to discuss costumes. The pair will fly each week to Los Angeles, paid for by the television network, to perform.

school. I thought she was in L.A., in which case she’d have to scrap all classes. Furst show airs April 30, but they start practicing immediately upon cast announcement.

I do worry about team chemistry, but we’ll just have to see.

Dancing improves balance and agility. DWTS could make her an even better player.

there was ever a team effort, this was it. I think each of the starters were the leading scorer at least once in the NCAA tourney. I think it is a little unfair to them and it could lead to some resentment internal issues.

The Husky girls are probably already back in the lab.

I'd hate to see this eat into that time. From what I understood, she was Marina'a gym-rat buddy. That's part of why they took home the gold.
