00:07Welcome to Ms. Mojo, and today we're counting down our picks for the routines that pushed
00:13the stars past good for a celebrity and into full-on jaw-dropping territory.
00:29When it comes to routines that push dancers to their physical limits, this high-octane jive immediately stands out.
00:48The style already demands lightning-fast footwork, constant bounce, and incredible stamina,
00:54but Jordan and Lindsay take that intensity to another level.
00:58From the very first beat, they launch into a whirlwind of kicks, flicks, and rapid-fire steps,
01:04never giving themselves a moment to reset.
01:16Every movement hits with perfect precision while matching the explosive energy of Tina Turner's iconic track.
01:23Keeping that speed under control is what makes the routine so impressive,
01:27turning a physically punishing style into a performance that looks effortless from start to finish.
01:42Number 29. Breaking Dishes. Jordan Childs and Ezra Sosa.
01:47This athlete is no stranger to explosive athleticism,
01:51but this paso doble required her to channel that power in an entirely different way.
02:04Rather than flying through flips and tumbling passes,
02:07she commanded the floor with sharp lines, dramatic shaping, and the fierce intensity the style demands.
02:13The routine fuses traditional paso attitude with a modern edge,
02:17as every hit, pose, and transition lands with the sharpest precision.
02:27Jordan's ability to shift her movement quality while maintaining that commanding presence
02:31makes the performance so captivating.
02:34It's a reminder that even elite athletes have to completely reinvent themselves
02:37when they step into the ballroom.
02:47Number 28. Heart Upon My Sleeve. Derek Hough and Amy Purdy.
02:52Some routines are memorable because of the choreography.
02:55Others stay with you because they redefine what a performance can be.
03:08Derek and Amy's Argentine tango does both.
03:12Using a chair as an extension of the movement,
03:14they create moments that are graceful, surprising, and incredibly intricate.
03:18Amy moves through lifts, balances, and chairography with remarkable control,
03:23while Derek builds choreography around trust, timing, and connection.
03:40Rather than hiding the challenges of the routine,
03:42they incorporate them into the storytelling,
03:45transforming every movement into part of the bigger picture.
03:48The result is a breathtaking performance built on creativity, strength, and complete commitment.
04:04Number 27. Work Song. Riker Lynch and Alison Holker.
04:09Few routines demand as much emotional commitment as contemporary,
04:13and Riker and Alison immediately throw themselves into the intensity of this performance.
04:29The choreography moves through sweeping extensions, challenging partnering,
04:34and dramatic floor work, with every transition flowing seamlessly into the next.
04:38Riker matches Alison's contemporary background by embracing the vulnerability of the style,
04:43while maintaining impressive physical control throughout.
04:46When my time comes around to lay me gently in the cold dark earth.
04:54Their connection is what makes the routine so powerful,
04:56as every lift, pause, and movement feels intentional.
05:00It's not just a showcase of athletic ability.
05:03It's a beautifully crafted piece of storytelling
05:05that proves how much impact a dance can have without saying a word.
05:09No grave can hold my body down like wrong to hurt.
05:18Number 26. Sing, sing, sing with a swing.
05:22Alfonso Ribeiro and Whitney Carson.
05:24This freestyle feels like watching several different performances
05:28packed into one unforgettable routine.
05:30Sing, sing, sing, sing, sing, sing, sing, sing, sing, sing, sing.
05:37With a swing.
05:41With a swing.
05:41It bursts onto the floor with vintage Charleston flair
05:44before shifting into hip-hop, jazz,
05:46and Broadway-inspired moments without missing a beat.
05:49Alfonso adapts to every style change with sharp musicality,
05:53precise isolations,
05:54and the kind of confidence that makes complex choreography look natural.
06:06The transitions come fast, yet nothing feels rushed or out of place.
06:10Every section brings a new challenge, but Alfonso meets each one head-on,
06:15creating a performance that is as technically impressive as it is entertaining.
06:19It's the perfect example of a freestyle that truly goes all out.

06:44It was an all-you-can-eat buffet of great dancing, fun, entertainment.
06:54Castro Neves and Julianne Hough.
06:56From the moment Hey Pachuco begins, Elio and Julianne turn the ballroom into a blur of speed,
07:02footwork, and non-stop momentum.
07:10From the opening moments, they race across the ballroom with dizzying footwork,
07:15rapid direction changes, and a frame that never loses its shape.
07:18The quick step leaves little room for hesitation, yet they glide through the choreography with
07:23remarkable confidence and control.
07:33Elio's energy never fades, even as the routine continues to build in pace and complexity.
07:39Matching the swinging rhythm while maintaining that level of precision is what makes this
07:43performance such a standout, turning an already demanding ballroom style into a thrilling display
07:48of athleticism and finesse.
07:59Number 24, I Hope You Dance, Chandler Kinney and Brandon Armstrong.
08:04Chandler and Brandon's contemporary routine proves that some of the most beautiful dances
08:09are also among the most physically demanding.
08:12I hope you never lose your sense of wonder.
08:17Get your bill to eat, but always keep that hunger.
08:22The performance flows through sweeping lifts, extended lines, stunning flexibility,
08:27and moments where every ounce of control is visible.
08:30Chandler moves between powerful and delicate with incredible ease,
08:34maintaining her strength while making each transition appear completely natural.
08:48Brandon's choreography creates a sense of motion, with the pair moving as if they're sharing
08:53the same breath.
08:54What makes this routine so captivating is the balance between athletic precision and emotional
08:58storytelling, creating a performance that feels both technically impressive and deeply personal.
09:04I hope you dance, I hope you dance, I hope you dance, I hope you dance.
09:14Number 23, Bust Your Windows, Evan Lysacek and Anna Trebunskaia.
09:20Figure skating may give performers an advantage when it comes to balance and body awareness,
09:25but Argentine tango requires a completely different kind of control.
09:40Evan and Anna trade the open movement of the ice for sharp accents, complex legwork,
09:45and a connection that has to remain locked in every second.
09:49Their routine is filled with dramatic pauses, precise weight changes, and moments where the
09:55smallest shift can completely change the movement.
10:10Evan brings his athletic discipline into the ballroom while embracing the intensity and restraint
10:15of the style.
10:16The result is a performance that proves that adapting from one demanding discipline to
10:21another is no easy feat.
10:33Number 22, Get Up and 24 Carat Magic, Wayne Brady and Whitney Carson.
10:39Wayne and Whitney's freestyle is the kind of routine that seems to add another layer every
10:44time you watch it.
10:56It begins with explosive energy before weaving together street styles, advanced footwork,
11:02incredible grooves, and impressive partner work.
11:04Wayne moves through each section with confidence, switching rhythms and textures while keeping the
11:10performance feeling completely connected.
11:20The choreography constantly shifts direction, yet nothing interrupts the momentum they build from
11:25the start.
11:26Under the pressure of the finals, they deliver a routine that feels massive without becoming chaotic.
11:30It's a celebration of versatility, musicality, and the fearless creativity that makes a great
11:37freestyle unforgettable.
11:49Number 21, La Cumparsita, Jennifer Grey and Derek Hough.
11:54This iconic duo brought an unforgettable intensity to the ballroom with their Argentine tango.
12:06From the first moment, the routine draws you in with its dramatic chemistry, sharp musicality,
12:11and tightly controlled movement.
12:13Every leg hook, breath, and perfectly timed step is executed with intention, creating the
12:18unmistakable tension that defines this style.
12:30Jennifer's performance is especially impressive considering the physical demands placed on
12:34her, as the choreography required quick changes in direction and powerful moments of control.
12:39Together, they create a routine that feels both technically elaborate and emotionally charged,
12:44proving that the strongest ballroom performances are often the ones that make every movement
12:58matter.
13:00Number 20, Gaston, Juan Pablo de Pache, and Cheryl Burke.
13:05It seems the rumors are true.
13:07No one's slick as Gaston, no one's quick as Gaston, and no one brings his bravado to the
13:13dance floor quite like Juan Pablo de Pache.
13:16Everyone's odd and inspired by you, and it's not very hard to see why.
13:26During Disney night on season 27, the Fuller House actor and his partner Cheryl Burke pulled
13:31off a near-perfect Viennese waltz to this Beauty and the Beast tune, but with a couple
13:36of acrobatic twists, their technique is light-footed and beautiful, as they expertly pull off those
13:48steps atop a table.
13:50But Juan Pablo takes things to new heights when he grabs the chandelier above his head
13:54and swings to freedom.
13:56His acting flourishes are also adorable, cementing this routine as one to remember.
14:00There's just one guy in town who's got all of it down, Gaston!
14:14Number 19, Resolve, Bindi Irwin, Derek Hough, and Mark Ballas.
14:20Learning a new style of dance is hard.
14:22Learning a new dance while navigating two pros is even harder.
14:38Learning a new style of dance with two dancers and a revolving prop?
14:42You see where we're headed.
14:43This was one of those dances where a single misstep could have spelled disaster.
14:48But this trio moves like a well-oiled machine, and it's phenomenal.
15:03There's so much to juggle, yet Bindi handles it all like a seasoned pro.
15:08With Derek and Mark, perhaps two of the show's most innovative choreographers, joining forces,
15:15it's no surprise that this routine is both breathtaking and heart-stopping at nearly every turn.
15:27Number 18, When the Party's Over, Charlie D'Amelio and Mark Ballas.
15:33Just because someone shares their life publicly, doesn't mean what we see matches how they feel inside.
15:39Keep me closer, and I'll call you when the party's over.
15:48So even before D'Amelio took a single step, we had huge respect for her courage in bringing that much
15:55vulnerability to the dance floor.
15:57That's arguably tougher than any step Ballas could throw her way.
16:10Even so, he created this beautiful routine that captures the anxiety she's faced,
16:16showing that overwhelming feeling so many of us know too well.
16:20Anyone who's struggled with anxiety knows it's rarely an easy battle,
16:24and together, they bring it to life with choreography that's intense, breathtaking, and absolutely powerful.
16:36Number 17, Spanish Guitar, Nicole Scherzinger and Derek Hough.
16:41When Derek and Nicole found out they needed to inject some 50s flair into their Paso Doble,
16:47Derek joked it seemed, quote,
17:03But, bit by bit, the choreography came together,
17:06with Hough finding clever ways to keep the dance's fundamentals intact,
17:10while also taking us back in time.
17:24What's so impressive is how this routine could have easily felt split,
17:28part Paso, part 50s.
17:31But instead, it's a perfect fusion that feels like we'd been transported back in time
17:35to an era-appropriate Spanish bullring.
17:38Even Len had to admit that as much as he wanted to find fault with it,
17:42he simply couldn't.
17:43It was 10s all around.
17:45Olay.
17:52Number 16, The Sound of Silence.
17:55Niall DeMarco and Peta Murgatroyd.
17:58Since contemporary isn't Peta's specialty,
18:01she brought in choreographer Talia Favia
18:03to create a routine that truly honored the story she and DeMarco wanted to tell.
18:19And since it was for the finals,
18:21if there was ever a time to go big,
18:23this was it.
18:24Talia didn't hold back,
18:26creating a routine that takes us through the challenges
18:28the deaf community faces in an ableist world,
18:31and ending with this powerful moment of triumph.
18:43It took a lot of trust,
18:45dedication, and heart to make this work.
18:47And it turned out to be more than just finals worthy.
18:51It was mirrorball worthy too.
18:53To this day,
18:54it's a Dancing with the Stars Hall of Famer.
19:08Number 15, Mundia Tobacki.
19:11Sean Johnson and Derek Hough.
19:13For Derek,
19:14combining Knight Rider with Vangara
19:16made less sense than mustard on ice cream.
19:28On top of that,
19:29Sean basically had to shelve everything she had learned about dance so far,
19:33as well as her gymnastics background,
19:35and go back to square one.
19:37The dance is lightning fast,
19:39packed with intricate choreography,
19:41and loaded with some next-level lifts.
19:52Len called it dynamite,
19:53but honestly,
19:54it was more like a whole firework display.
19:57You know a routine is tough when,
19:59by the end,
20:00the Olympic gold medalist is out of breath,
20:02and the pro dancer collapses to the floor
20:04in total exhaustion and relief.
20:16Number 14,
20:17Santa Maria del Buen Aire.
20:20James Hinchcliffe and Sharna Burgess.
20:23This was the first time Sharna and James reunited since her injury,
20:27and they were ready to prove they were back stronger than ever.
20:40They went all in with a bold Argentine tango,
20:43where Sharna was blindfolded the entire time.
20:46It was a huge risk.
20:48Argentine tango demands sharp, intricate movements.
20:51But Sharna put herself completely in James' hands,
20:54and he took his role as her eyes seriously.
21:09She could have toned down the choreography to ease this extra challenge,
21:13but that's not their style.
21:15They weren't the first pair to use blindfolds in their dance,
21:18but this duo took it up a notch by committing to it for the entire routine.
21:32Number 13,
21:34I'll make a man out of you.
21:35Normani and Val Shmorkovsky.
21:38The Paso Doble is all about strength and power,
21:41and so is Mulan.
21:42So this pairing felt like a natural fit.
21:44Did they send me daughters
21:47when I asked for sons?
21:51The week before,
21:53the judges had been hoping for more from Normani,
21:55and this time,
21:57she and Val delivered.
21:58She brought all the fierceness the Paso needs,
22:01along with the drama and artistry
22:03worthy of a Disney Broadway show.
22:05Must be swift as a coursing river
22:08With all the force of a great typhoon
22:13As if the dance wasn't difficult and busy enough,
22:16they threw in some epic combat-ography
22:19that fit the style perfectly.
22:21The judges wanted to see the fight in Normani,
22:24and she showed it to them tenfold.
22:26Plus, having Li Shang's actual singing voice
22:29performing live couldn't have hurt either.
22:31With all the strength of a raging fire
22:35Mysterious as the dark side of the moon
22:43Number 12.
22:44I Got Five On It, Tethered Mix
22:46Iman Shumpert and Daniela Karagotch
22:49If you watched Jordan Peele's
22:51Us With Your Heart in Your Mouth,
22:53just wait until you watch Iman
22:55and Daniela's contemporary routine.
22:57Creep on it!
23:06From the very first move,
23:09they set a high bar,
23:10delivering trick after trick
23:12that demands so much from them
23:13both individually and as partners.
23:16Choreographing to this eerie music
23:18can't have been easy,
23:19yet they pulled off an incredible routine
23:21packed with jaw-dropping lifts
23:23that left our nerves completely frayed.
23:33Can we talk about their height difference?
23:36With less chemistry,
23:37it could have been an issue,
23:38but it certainly wasn't for them.
23:40This felt like their game-changing performance,
23:43setting a new standard
23:44for what we'd expect from this winning duo.
23:56Number 11.
23:58Proud Mary, Paige Van Zandt, and Mark Ballas
24:01You've never seen a jive like this before.
24:04In week 7 of season 22,
24:06UFC fighter Paige Van Zandt
24:08and her dancing partner, Mark Ballas,
24:10took the judges by storm
24:11with an electric and difficult routine
24:13set to Proud Mary.
24:20Watching Van Zandt conquer the quick
24:22and precise steps of the jive,
24:24while never losing her energy or poise,
24:26is really a sight to behold.
24:28Her exuberance spread through the ballroom
24:30and captured the audience completely.
24:32The big wheel keep on turning
24:34The big wheel keep on turning
24:39Rollin', rollin', rollin',
24:41that we're rollin' all the real life
24:43Van Zandt and Ballas kept the crowd
24:45clapping along throughout the number
24:47and would receive three 10s
24:48from the judges afterwards.
24:50Big wheels keep on turning indeed.
24:56Number 10.
24:57Para Los Rumberos
24:59Sean Johnson and Derek Hough
25:00Sean Johnson more than excelled
25:03during her not one,
25:04but two seasons on Dancing with the Stars.
25:06So much so that this isn't the first time
25:08we've talked about her
25:09and it won't be the last.
25:11Spoiler alert.
25:12But for now,
25:13let's focus on this excellent mambo
25:15between her and Derek Hough
25:16during her All-Star season.
25:25Johnson not only shows off her quick feet
25:27and excellent form but puts those gymnastic skills to use.
25:32She lands splits, twirls, and handstands
25:34seemingly without breaking a sweat.
25:45In one stellar moment,
25:47Hough jumps over Johnson,
25:49guiding her into a backbend
25:50in one of the most impressive feats of strength
25:52ever seen on the show.
25:53There's a reason they call it All-Stars.
25:56I tell you,
25:57this show,
25:58you think you've seen it all
26:00and it keeps getting better.
26:03Number 9.
26:04Santa Maria del Buen Aire
26:06Jojo Siwa and Jenna Johnson
26:08YouTube personality Jojo Siwa
26:10made history on Dancing with the Stars
26:12when she became one half
26:14of the first same-sex couple
26:15to compete on the show.
26:24Along with her dance partner,
26:26Jenna Johnson,
26:27Siwa tore up the stage all season
26:29with her killer moves
26:30and infectious personality.
26:31But no dance was better or more on fire
26:34than this Argentine tango.
26:44Chemistry is one of the most important parts
26:47of the tango
26:47and Siwa and Johnson have that in spades.
26:50But what's most impressive
26:51is the way Siwa is able to perfectly execute
26:54extremely difficult footwork.
26:56If you get offbeat in the tango,
26:58things can go really wrong really fast.
27:00But Siwa and Johnson stayed perfectly in tune
27:02with each other the whole time.
27:13Number 8.
27:14Free Your Mind
27:15Mel B. and Maxim Schmerkowski
27:18All the way back in season 5,
27:20Max Schmerkowski had a great partner
27:23in Mel B. of the Spice Girls.
27:33During week 7,
27:35the two pulled off a remarkable
27:36Paso Doble,
27:38a fast-paced ballroom dance
27:39inspired,
27:40as we alluded to earlier,
27:42by Spanish bullfighting.
27:44The juxtaposition of the funky music choice,
27:46Free Your Mind by En Vogue,
27:48and the diligence and precision of the steps
27:50is so much fun to watch.
28:00Mel B. really kicks it into high gear
28:02with some of the straightest legs
28:03and cleanest fan kicks
28:05you've ever seen in your life.
28:07Between the cool attitude
28:08and the sharp moves,
28:09this one will live rent-free
28:10in our brains for years to come.
28:19Number 7.
28:20Feel So Close
28:21Meryl Davis and Maxim Schmerkowski
28:24On season 18,
28:26ice dancer Meryl Davis
28:27and her partner,
28:28Maxim Schmerkowski,
28:29turned up the heat to 11 every week,
28:32especially with this super-fast tango
28:34in week 6.
28:35And there's no stopping us right now
28:38I feel so close to you right now
28:45Davis put her ice dancing skills
28:47to work here,
28:48her face emotive and gorgeous
28:50throughout every step of the routine.
28:52The most impressive part of this dance
28:54is just how fast the tango has to move.
29:04Davis and Schmerkowski
29:05have impeccable form throughout,
29:08spinning and strutting
29:09with the best of them.
29:10Watching this routine
29:11compared to the rest of their work
29:12this season,
29:13it's no wonder they were
29:14eventually crowned champions.
29:27Number 6.
29:28You're Welcome
29:29Jordan Fisher and Lindsay Arnold
29:31Let's be honest,
29:33Jordan and Lindsay
29:34could easily fill out this list.
29:36Throw Corbin Bleu into the mix
29:38and things really get sizzling.
29:47Yet it was their Disney night foxtrot
29:49set to You're Welcome from Moana
29:51that glided straight into our hearts.
29:53Face to face with greatness
29:55and it's strange
29:56You don't even know how you feel
29:58It's adorable
29:59The foxtrot itself is a marvel to watch
30:02with Fisher and Arnold
30:03expertly hitting their marks
30:05time and time again.
30:06Still, the best part of this routine
30:08has to be the breakdown.
30:14Fisher has such excellent rhythm,
30:16no doubt a holdover
30:17from his musical theater background
30:19and that little modern flair
30:21in the middle of the routine
30:22gives this performance
30:23the extra oomph it needs
30:24to solidify its god-tier status.
30:27What can we say
30:28except You're Welcome?
30:35Number 5.
30:36Hayadio
30:37Lindsay Sterling
30:38and Mark Ballas
30:39The best thing about freestyle dance
30:42is that couples can ditch the rulebook
30:44and let their creativity run wild.
30:46Mark choreographed a routine
30:48that felt like their own highlight reel,
30:50blending various dance styles.
31:01If you're a longtime Dancing with the Stars fan,
31:04you know each style
31:05has its own set of rules,
31:07making those transitions rather tricky.
31:10Their most impressive moment
31:11came when they added a third element,
31:13Lindsay's violin.
31:24We know she's a pro at dancing
31:26and playing simultaneously,
31:28but this is a next-level challenge
31:30and she makes it look effortless.
31:32Once the violin is set aside,
31:34they keep that energy going
31:36and continue hitting all the right notes.
31:56What's harder than dancing the salsa?
31:58Why, dancing the salsa
31:59with two partners, of course.
32:13Disney Channel star Milo Mannheim
32:15and his partner Whitney Carson
32:17slayed the dance floor
32:18all throughout Season 27,
32:20but adding singer Riker Lynch
32:21into the mix gave them a boost.
32:23The group more than meets the challenge,
32:25executing this salsa trio
32:27with precision, grace, and style.
32:37Adding the third person
32:38into the dance
32:39heightens the difficulty
32:40as each person
32:41has to be hyper-aware
32:42of not one,
32:44but two other people's movements.
32:45These three are perfectly in sync
32:47the whole time though,
32:48even throwing some lifts in
32:49for good measure.
33:01Number 3.
33:02Beneath Your Beautiful
33:03Kelly Pickler and Derek Hough
33:06For a supersized freestyle,
33:08you might expect the dancers
33:10to throw in everything,
33:11including the kitchen sink.
33:13But as Derek considered
33:14ways to wow everyone,
33:16he realized he only needed himself,
33:18Kelly, and a solid routine.
33:28He stripped everything down
33:30to focus on the dancing
33:31and show off Kelly's strengths.
33:33He even mentioned
33:34that some of the moves
33:35were ones he'd never even attempted
33:37with other pros.
33:47Luckily, Kelly had the talent
33:49to pull off even the toughest steps
33:51and enough raw emotion
33:53to truly sell the routine
33:54and capture the audience's hearts.
33:56This approach paid off big time.
33:59They walked away
34:00with that season's mirror ball.
34:15If you want to talk about chemistry,
34:17we've got to go back
34:18to Meryl and Max.
34:21You, you enchant me
34:24Even when I'm not around
34:27During their amazing championship-winning run
34:30on season 18,
34:32the two performed a freestyle dance
34:33in the finale
34:34that left viewers stunned.
34:36Each dance move
34:37is more impressive
34:37than the one before it,
34:39showing off the long,
34:40beautiful lines
34:40that both Davis and Schmierkowski
34:42are able to make
34:43with their bodies.
34:44Now I've got you in my face
34:48I won't let go of you
34:53The pair displayed
34:54incredible grace and strength
34:56as they lifted,
34:57swung,
34:57and twirled each other
34:58around the floor.
34:59Carrie-Anne Inaba,
35:01who was brought to tears
35:02by the performance,
35:03said it best.
35:04First of all,
