    I've been separated from my family due to the lockdown and have been forced to stay on a different continent for some time now due to travel restrictions and borders being closed . Watching your video's, listening to your positive energy has pulled me through many, many dark days. Thank you for sharing and thank you for the inspiration. You are touching lives in a very unique way.

    I always feel better after listening to you and watching you dance. Since my husband died I have had a hard time just leaving my bed. It's been a year and a half. Just listening to you makes me want to "get it off my head". Thank you for helping me to start again (or at least starting to think about it again)!

    I am an older person (female). I fell in love with Dancing with the Stars and I think you are INCREDIBLE! Thank you for your wonderful dancing and for this channel! I loved seeing this and hearing about your life. Looking forward to more exercise and nutrition tips. I really like what you said about the 'active body' and the 'still mind'. Made so much sense and I am actually going to actively practice that. Thank you!

    I love watching you and partner dance. I have always wanted to learn to dance, but I'm too heavy and I have a really bad back. Watching you/partner dance let's me live vicariously through you/partner. I use to watch ballroom dancing competitions and loved every minute of it. Keep moving!

  • @rebeccajacklin3976
    @rebeccajacklin3976 5 ปีที่แล้ว

    I love how real you are! First off, I too have to say working out gives you energy. There was era in my life I was really sick, doctors couldn't figure it out. Chronic fatigue was one of 25 symptoms. I prayed for answers and one answer came in the idea to start working out, so I did and I noticed I could endure longer and had more energy. I have my diagnosis now and am managing an autoimmune disease, but I'm so healthy! I even TEACH Zumba classes!!!
    This is so funny/awesome about you building a house. Just a few days ago I told my friend my husband is building a mother-in-law suite from scratch. He asked, "Is that pretty common for Mormons to build houses cuz I know another Mormon couple that did that and they have chickens." I had to laugh because we had chickens at one point...but then they turned out to be roosters! They had to go, we took 'em to a farm. The point is we love to learn and develop our talents. It's AMAZING what we're capable of!! Luv ya Derek! I hope to see you here in Sugarland, TX!!!

  • @aphidbug
    @aphidbug 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    Derek, you're inspirational! You seem like such a down to earth person - willing to laugh at yourself, have fun, and prioritize your family relationships. Thanks for being a good example as a celebrity who hasn't allowed famosity to change you in a negative way, but instead push you to challenge yourself and grow as an individual! You've long been my favorite choreographer on DWTS and I'm so glad to see you on the panel for World of Dance. Keep doing life well! ~April

  • @HeatherLovesLife
    @HeatherLovesLife 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    Loved everything you mentioned, especially spending quality time with family - I visit my parents weekly and take a trip with my mom every year. I’m so thankful for the time we get to spend together.
    I’d like to learn how you create balance in your life while being so busy. Would love to see some of your workouts/routines & healthy recipe ideas /meal planning.
    Seeing your house come together would be really interesting too.
    It’s refreshing to find channels focused on healthy living and motivation to live your best life, so thanks for taking it on!

    I love it Derek and would love to hear more about your exercise and pushing that mindset to get you up and moving. Being able yo do those things even when you don't want to or don't think you have the energy for it. How to get up out of bed. PS love hearing how you personally apply some of those Tony Robbins concepts.

    Hello, I saw one of your videos "Derek Hough's Gymnastics with Nastia Liukin." It was amazing. I am original from Germany and sometimes when I get homesick, I look through TH-cam videos. I knew you from dancing with the stars, and thought; hey let me check it out. It was the best thing I could do. I have to say that you are an inspiration. I saw you and your sister in 2017 on your Move Beyond Live Tour; May 2017 - Houston, TX. It was phenomenal. I cannot wait to see you in 2019. All my best wishes to you and your loved ones. You are indeed an inspiration. I actually started walking/running again because of you. After watching your video, I said to myself, he is right, move your body to clear your head. It is difficult here in TX because, during the summertime (daytime), it's pretty hot and humid, but in the evening and early morning, I started to walk. I walk/run 9 miles. Thank you for your new channel, and all the great advice. You might put out some of your favorite dishes; Salats, grilled chicken, seafood recipes, or even some diet and healthy ideas that can be fixed in 15 min..etc. I love your energy and your attitude. Watching you always put a smile on my face. Stay like you are, you are one of a kind. God bless you and your loved ones. :)

    So excited for what you are doing! I love to dance and am a big fan. I currently work as a software developer, but I also love to dance. I have been dancing since I was 7. Started with breakdancing, continued on to hip hop, and cultural dancing. I just graduated college and after getting a job I decided to double down on dancing. Started taking ballroom lessons, ballet lessons, and more. I honestly tell myself every day, I don't know what I would do without dancing. This connection between the music, your emotions, and your body to me is just amazing. And I love to teach it as well. Hence why I am just so happy to see you on here sharing your story and lessons. Thank You! 😊

    I can only add i am so in love with Derek Hough, loved you since you first began Dancing with the Stars. I am 80 but spent menyyoung years dancing. Any program that has dancing in it, is where i land. Keep up all the good work you do . I did end up with 2 total knee replacements and a pin in my back.........that is how i was introduced to the Golden Years. I try to keep a smile on my face...........and watching you dance has certainly filled that bill...and you and your sis..........all i can say is AWESOME. You make an "x dancer " so happy..

  • @carmalee2584
    @carmalee2584 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    Hi Derek! Your words are so powerful and really resonate with me. The part about being present and in the moment is something that I "subscribe" to. It truly reduces that overwhelm feeling and the anxiety that follows when you try to get to everything all at once. For me, I realized it was a prioritizing issue because I believed everything had to get done NOW. So long to that kind of thinking as it does not serve you. I LOVE watching you on World of Dance. As a former competitive dancer, it brings back so man memories. Presently, I teach dance in private schools and preschools. I absolutely LOVE it and it doesn't feel like work when you are blessed to do what you love! I would like to hear how you balance work/play/relationships? Balance is key, in dance and in life!

    Howdy, Derek! I enjoy watching your dancing. You were my favorite dancer on DWTS due to your amazing ability, but also your choreography. You were able to teach those who did not know how and those who knew some and make them in to wonderful dancers. I am interested in your channel. I had been bed ridden for 3 years and am now learning to walk for distance again. I walk 5 houses away from mine and then back for a total of 10. I achieved this recently. I find I have to walk on 1 day and relax the next or else I hurt myself. Sometimes I get so frustrated! What you said has encouraged me to keep on and not give up. Thank you.

    Hi Derek! This was really awesome. I agree with you about the body being still and the mind being busy it can get that way because of the things going on in our lives that cause us to get overwhelmed. I appreciate what you said about compartmentalizing. I can see where one can achieve the best results that way. I find walking is great for me as well. Bravo 👏 to you. I really enjoyed this segment and look forward to the next one. Congrats again on the tour👏👏👏

    @NONDUALITYtheopenway 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    Hi Derek.. I love your "way of being".. Of course I know your "story" and amazing how you have transcended that.. so to speak.. just want to share.. that as we know.. it is about reorientation.. how we are oriented. And as you know.. there is a deeper more stable aspect to our being beyond the conditioning. I have found that through something that not many people know about called "nonduality".. (but that's just a label as well as it is more like "Awareness") seeing that boundaries are just concepts, even the personal boundary. So for me, anything that loosens the sense of identity/boundary in that way is good. I on a venture to share this.. I have hosted many teachers etc already yet have a vision. Reorientated who we know ourselves to be essentially is the greatest gift. Just sharing that with you is a blessing. I love who you are... and... if you would be interested in sharing more and perhaps supporting my vision that will lift the consciousness to see through our storylines of who we think we are as identity, that would be great!! Let me know here or find me on FB Cory Bright. We can change the sense of orientation at it's core for all who are drawn to this.. I have a way of sharing this that is just amazing... would love to share with you further.... Thanks Derek! Enjoy the ride!! :)

    Derek, THANKS SO MUCH for reappearing in my life by starting your own YT channel. Have Sooo miss you on DWTS & JUST 'happened' to find your channel by some fluke bc my primary use of YT is for spiritual anything (yoga, chants, becoming Authentic, etc). SO to me, it wasn't a random thing but synchronicity.. Hey, we live totally connected (by the unseen energies in this Intelligent Universe, so there are no random coincidences!)
    Your departure fr DWTS was inevitable to be sure (you & Mark both are waaay too creative 'outside the box' innovators for Len's stuck in the past curmudgeon ways, though you, especially,' always showed him respect). Clearly it was time for you to move onward & Ever upward; I applaud you for following you heart's GPS, as you so clearly do Naturally. I Always knew you were special from that show. (e.g. Never saw you be mean to a 'star'-partner like some other pros & you were Always positive & upbeat!)
    Now you're taking part of your valuable time to connect with all of us & not for anything close to gaining 200K followers or any of that fluff. You sincerely desire a connection/ r'ship w your old & new fans... Way Cool 'Indiana Jones'! I enjoy finding out ab all your interests & diff activities.. Yet another synchronicity: I am a Nature junkie (it's my 1st home & major Source of comfort & 'Reset' for an over vigilant nervous system).
    Your easy connection with everyone is done beautifully by being Authentic- you don't appear to have ANY problem sharing your vulnerability, which may be due in part to 5 sisters keeping your feminine aspects well balanced with the masculine, yes? Gorgeous family btw.. Not at all surprising that all sisters are like Energize Bunnies (they're all as beautiful as J). Your parents must just be phenomenal, &, now you're Making time to create not just more dance memories, but memories w/ 'Indiana J' Dad! #PRICELESS
    SO I'm looking forward to having more 'chats'with you & your guests; your a Very giving & support Present host Derek.
    Again, thanks for sharing your life, experiences & cool adventures with us all. Can't wait to hear your inevitable TED Talk soon.

    Thank you, Derek, for the Arts that you create! You have such a shiny bright Personality! You easily talk about such a pretty symple geniouse things, that comes out from the bottom of your hart and goes directly to the minds and souls of the people, who appreciate your brilliant talent! I've got such a great pleasure of watching everywhere you appear (not such a long time ago since now, but still...). God bless you! (I'm really sorry for my grammar mistakes.... I'm a choreographer from Russia, actualy ;-), but all my words are truly warm, sincere and grateful for you).

    I admire your courage! It's not easy to be this open and exposed. I enjoy listening to you because I find you to be very encouraging and intelligent. I am not in the best physical shape and have found myself getting lazy as I age. At 50, it's harder to get to the gym after working all day. But, it's never too late to turn over a new leaf. I liked when you talked about more physical movement bringing more mental stillness. I really need some of that and a good walk along a trail could be just the ticket. Thanks for sharing with us. I enjoy watching you on WOD because your overall enthusiasm is so uplifting and your attention to little details in each contestants routine is amazing. You are a beautiful person through and through young man!

    Derek, I first off want to say that you are incredible and an inspiration to what I hope are to millions of dancers out there who will one day thank you for giving them the inspiration to do what they love.
    I don't mean to upset you in anyway, but I want to tell my story....
    I'm a 46 year old man who once dreamed of dancing in front of millions. I grew up watching, Jean Kelly and Fred Astaire movies, especially, Singing In The Rain, and various other old classical musicals with my mother, who absolutely adored the art of dancing and singing as well. I remember sitting in front of that television as a toddler even, watching these dancers and just wanting to be them.
    After I turned around 12 or so years old, I began dancing in my room with headphones on and trying to imitate various dancers and musical artists, such as; Bobby Brown, Paula Abdul, Janet Jackson, Micheal Jackson, etc... Every single day after school, I danced. We lived in the country, I would walk through the woods with my headphones on and just dance and feel free!
    Through the years I hid my love for dancing. Not knowing how my family would accept that idea of their son, brother, uncle, being a dancer. When I was about 15 years old, my brother walked in on me while I was dancing and stood there and watched me imitate dance routines. He then asked me if I would choreograph his wedding. I did! Then I was asked to choreograph parties, and such... I did! School pep-rallies, etc...I became a local dancing fool!! I danced well into my thirties, teaching family, friends, some strangers, and even my own kids, how to dance. Just for me and my two sons, we created our very own dance routine for, Chaka Khan's - I Feel For You. I miss even being able to do that with them.
    When I turned 40 years old, I decided to get my first ever complete physical done. During the stress test, I popped my right hip out of socket. Upon trying to get my hip back in its socket, I learned that I had been living with a very genetic disease called, Degenerative Disc Disease, along with a few other illnesses not worth mentioning here. But, my world and my love for dancing instantly came to a screeching halt! Upon more examinations, my back specialist said that I was on the brink of becoming paralyzed from the waste down, by how severe my disease had progressed and me not reporting it before hand. Truth is, I never felt any of the pain until my hip popped out of socket.. I then, had went from dancing almost every single day to not being able to dance at all.
    Depression, anxiety, the feeling of worthlessness had began to set in and my dreams and ambitions vanished. Out of depression, I quit seeing my back specialist. He wanted to put an eight inch plate in my lower back and I couldn't face the reality of it all being final.. Without my wife or kid's knowing, I still to this day, go outside every so often in my very dark backyard with my MP3 player and headphones and I try my best to get as much movement of dancing as I can get. I don't want to stop! It's as though I can't stop!
    I have been watching various videos of yours when your dancing.... Jealously and envy are a real thing, Derek. But, now I find myself watching you as well as various other dancers on TH-cam, television, or movies, and it makes me happy to still watch the beautiful art going stronger than ever. The Step Up movie series are my favorites!
    You are awesome and I have so much respect for you for keeping the art alive! So, thank you, Derek!
    Sincerely, Paul

    I'm very happy that I stumbled upon this.
    In your 17 seasons on DWTS I admired your ability to motivate the stars you worked with and I'm sure that was an amazing challenge!
    I was injured on the job and am now disabled. I cannot return to work and am now on I disability, that is a fate worse than death!
    I feel I can work again but after all these years of not being able to move I gained 100 plus pounds. I lost 60 but still need to lose a lot more and move!
    So I'm hoping you give some motivation for those of use who really need it. At times when you were so encouraging to the stars you taught I imaged those were also meant for me to get up and move...I would love to hear those words again as they did help me with losing those 60 pounds!
    After hearing you tonight I think I'm going to challenge myself to get up and move everyday even if only to walk around the block on my bad days. Then if I do it everyday to Christmas I'm going to get myself a ticket to your show...if I save enough for it that is!
    Wish me luck and please help keep us all motivated!

    I’d love to know more tips about how to increase dancer flexibility. I try to cross train as much as I can but I find when I have an imbalance with eating or weight loss I can lose flexibility or increase my injuries. Any tips you can give are greatly appreciated! Also you and your sister have been an inspiration to me since I started dancing at age 12!💛
