On the second round of qualifiers on Season 2 of World of Dance, judges Jennifer Lopez, Derek Hough, and Ne-Yo meet the married champion ballroom dancers Pasha & Daniella. They started dancing together in January 2009 when Daniella Karagach from Brooklyn, New York was 15, and Pasha Pashkov from Perm, Russia was 22. Together they went on to became 3x US National 10-Dance Champions. In 2014, they married. They continue to keep things hot on the dance floor. On World of Dance there are a number of “hot moments” when they perform to James Blake’s song “Limit To Your Love.” See below.
According to Brooklyn Reporter, the former Bath Beach resident Daniella says she was diagnosed with “very high ADHD” (attention deficit hyperactivity disorder) when she was 6 years old. When doctors prescribed medication, Daniella’s single mother who worked three jobs said no and got her daughter into ballroom dancing. “I started focusing better. I did better in school. It just helped me overall in life,” says Daniella, who obviously likes to turn lemons into lemonade. World of Dance airs Tuesdays at 10pm on NBC, right after America’s Got Talent.
