AJ's own new show/tour Get on the floor

upcoming next march :flutter:

She was brilliant this weekend. My 2nd favourite dance after Ashley. I even feel she was underscored

:love: :love:

she loves going to blackpool now, the place where AJ won his titles, which she knows how special that can be, winning titles for something what you are passionate about, and she is delighted that she can experience that now what it is like to be dancing in the tower ballroom


and also she's now to the point where Jonnie got eliminated last year, and honestly i think she can be here a few more weeks as long as she keeps working hard, their Chemistry is also getting strong now

viennese waltzes can be difficult (forward turns, reverse turns, fleckrls, pivots, and also worth a mention those tricks AJ put in the performance, which were also properly executed by Lauren with her strong core)


it has been a journey so far for me supporting her and aj

so possibly the Argentine Tango for Lauren this week, some hints AJ gave us on a insta story, i am 99% sure she has this dance, but no confirmation what dance they got on his radio interview this morning :(

latest vlog is up now

good luck Lauren & AJ for this weeks argentine tango

also cannot wait seeing them tonight on it takes two

and here's a lovely article by the express for Lauren

https://www.express.co.uk/showbiz/tv...-BBC-Blackpool

Strictly Come Dancing fans are loving Lauren Steadman and AJ Pritchard on the BBC talent show.

The pair have bonded well and appear to be performing well with each other.

Last weekend, Lauren and AJ got their highest score yet, bagging 34 for their Viennese Waltz.

They got very good criticism for their stunning routine, with Craig Revel Horwood saying it was the first time Lauren really “danced”.

The pair appeared on It Takes Two this evening to tell Zoe Ball how training is coming along.

But while they were there, Lauren dropped a big bombshell on Zoe and AJ.

The presenter asked whether she prefers athletics or dancing, to which Lauren said the latter.

“It might have overtaken…” she whispered as her professional partner erupted.
AJ exclaimed: “So great to hear that!”

Lauren went on: “The love for dance whereas now it’s like, ‘shall we try it like this?’

The pair will be performing an Argentine Tango in the coming weekend at Blackpool.

Their dramatic routine will be accompanied by River by Bishop Briggs.

Lauren gave an update on how rehearsals is going, telling Zoe she is already enjoying herself.

She said: “It’s intense and my brain feels a little bit like mashed potato.

“But I love the power and the intensity,” Lauren praised.


AJ went on to explain how there will be an added element of danger to the performance this weekend.

The couple are allowed to use lifts more so than usual, something the professional will revel in.

“The lifts are going to be something,” he teased.

AJ added: “I do go crazy when they say I can do lifts!”


yes the argentine tango is the most difficult dance with a huge variety of technique, but great to hear you like the power and intensity of it all :thumbs:

Lauren has been working hard in training yesterday :love:


i know her training footage at waite's warm up didn't look good, but that was at a different location, and they were just going through some random AT techniques at that day i can see that, and they have an AT expert with them anyway so what Ian said about the techniques she also knows and can advise Lauren to work on those mistakes, maybe she did that yesterday who knows, but anyway i am proud of Lauren no matter what, she's now got a fan for life in me

this fanclub i will remain posting in, also for the paratriathlon events, twitter messages from her and all that :)
