"Honestly, the speed of it all. In gymnastics, I am used to a set routine where every move is locked in. On that dance floor, it felt like the music, the crowd, the cameras, all hit at once. The adrenaline was so strong. One second I was starting and the next it was over. I wanted to run it back."

"It has been amazing. Ezra is the right mix of patience, but he also knows how to push me. We laugh a lot . . . and I mean A LOT in rehearsal, but when it is time to lock in, he keeps me focused. It feels like having a new teammate, and that is something I love. The fact that we get to be on this journey together is everything."

Jordan Chiles made her debut on DWTS on September 16th, with the show scheduled to end in November later this year.
