Dancing with the Stars: The Next Pro will return on ABC this Monday night, as the remaining 10 contestants continue to compete for the chance to appear on Season 35 of the show. Dance styles and partnerships have been revealed ahead of the new episode.
What to Expect on DWTS: The Next Pro
For the second week of competition on The Next Pro, Brandon Armstrong will serve as a guest mentor and judge, helping the dancers perfect their storytelling abilities. According to an episode synopsis, the contestants “must bring a personal story to life through dance.”
The dancers will pair up for their performances. Three pairs will dance a rumba — Stephani and Tristen to “Dreaming of You” by Selena, Allen and Adele to “See You Again” by Charlie Puth, and Benji and Nina to “Sign of the Times” by Harry Styles.
Additionally, Selena and AJ will dance a jive to “Runaway Baby” by Bruno Mars, while Natalie and Erik will dance a Viennese waltz to “Hold My Hand” by Lady Gaga. Last week, two dancers were eliminated. It’s not clear yet if this week’s show will also feature a double elimination.
