Sophia and Jake's Stunning Foxtrot On Dancing with the Stars: Juniors

Sophia Pippen and Jake Monreal wowed the Dancing with the Stars: Juniors audience with their smooth foxtrot! The pair danced beautifully to “Love Story” by Taylor Swift. The song tells a modern twist of Romeo and Juliet. We think these two dancers captured the youthfulness and beauty of this song’s story so well!


“We were both young when I first saw you
I close my eyes and the flashback starts
I'm standing there on a balcony in summer air
See the lights, see the party, the ball gowns
See you make your way through the crowd
And say hello”

Sophia Pippen is daughter of famous NBA star, Scottie Pippen. It’s clear that she has her father’s quick feet and ease under pressure! With each dance this seemingly reserved girl comes out with one stunning performance after another! Her dress for this foxtrot is absolutely stunning with soft blues and ruffles from head to toe. It flowed so elegantly while she danced with her dance partner, Jake Monreal. After performing as a contestant on So You Think You Can Dance, Jake went on to continue his ballroom training and brings an excitement to the floor in whatever piece he is performing.

Seeing all of these children dancing so passionately is always a highlight of our week. They truly love being in front of the cameras and taking on these new dance challenges with the new dancing friends. Dancing is not an easy feat and these guys and gals make it seem practically effortless. We love watching the twinkle in their eyes while they are performing and the extra big smiles on their faces when they accomplish a difficult step in their choreography!
