What would you put on your vision board? 🙏🏼

Two very inspiring individuals - most certainly the most beautiful couple of DWS EVER! Love seeing how the friendship between you two has flourished.

You guys were my pick to win that season! Dancing with the Stars isn't nearly as enjoyable without you Derek. We miss ya.

Wow, that was a great interview. When Nastia was talking about her Mom hanging her Dad's gold medal next to the picture of the gold medal she would end up winning gave my stomach butterflies. Oh, and if I saw yo falling down the stairs I would have been yelling NOOO! NOOO! too. You're the one my Mom and I always choose to win. We always hope you'll be one of the pro's dancing every season. The vision I have for myself is so simple for other people but I haven't been able to do for 14 years. To not only go but want to go anyplace around people alone.🙏

Great interview!! Derek, you have a real knack for interviews!!

i was in the arena the day nastia fell on bars in 2012. it was such a magical moment seeing everyone on their feet cheering for her and supporting her. so special. i love you nastia❤️❤️

I had always wanted to ballroom dance but never had anyone to dance with so I just left it alone. After watching you dance and listening to you, Derek, for the past few years got me motivated and last fall I started a class so now I have been ballroom dancing for almost a whole year and I am so glad I did it. Thanks Derek!

You guys inspire me every day. You Derek, you are just full of positive energy that you spread everywhere you show up. I love you so much.

[Elong.]

Loved hearing Nastia’s story and how you related to it! You both are such inspiring ppl. I hope you’ll interview more former partners:)

[DragonandSwan]

I'm literally teary right now because I've been struggling with a goal and you've given me a tangible solution to helping myself achieve it finally after 6 years of trying! Thank you.

[beomyous]

Great interview! You two are one of the most positive and inspiring people ever. Love you both ❤️

[UnitedRedDevils]

Absolutely awesome!!! That's a couple of the brightest lights on the planet! Huge fan of Derek's, not just his skills and entertaining personally, but also his enthusiasm and encouraging nature. I've seen a lot of Olympics, and many epic battles. But Nastia vs Shawn Johnson for the overall Gold, was one of the most enthralling things the world has ever been privileged to witness:) well done you two

[aphidbug]

So awesome to hear more about Nastia's story. Amazing to think that her standing ovation defining moment was the very moment she fell the lowest she could. I think you both have a wonderful perspective in life in that it's not all about results and "winning, " but truly living the life that God has called you to live and being the best human being you were created to be!

[wacorbetts]

You two are just beautiful. You were both able to articulate your journeys so we'll and that's incredibly valuable and kind to share. THANK YOU!

[rachelanne]

I love Nastia's testimony that life is about struggling and emerging ❤

[karenbradley]

I love how positive you both are and that you have found what is so important: vision and the journey. On my vision board is me writing a novel. I want to spread hope and stories of redemption to as many people as possible.

[CodySDivineCreators]

So inspiring! Love the manifesting bit. More Nastia videos please!!!

[mommabear]

He seems like such a pleasant, kind person.

[lynneadale]

I've loved watching DWTS ever since I was a little kid, and you were always one of my mom's and my favorite dancers to watch! I always thought going on DWTS would be the absolute coolest thing, and I wanted to learn to dance, but I felt like I would be starting too late to ever be any good, so I really put that on hold. Now that I'm at college, I found a ballroom dance club that I'm joining, and I'm super excited about it!! I'm finally trying something new that I've wanted to do for over ten years!

[Kakini]

And this is why I like Derek, he is so animated and funny, it's awesome!
