Charity episode of Dancing with the Stars: how the show raises funds for the rehabilitation of soldiers.

According to ТСН: The filming of a special pre-New Year's episode of the show "Dancing with the Stars. The Move to Life" has finished in Kyiv, which will air on December 28 at 20:00 on the "1+1 Ukraine" channel.

Charity purpose of the show

This episode is not only festive but also has a strong charitable message — it is dedicated to raising funds for the Superhumans Center, which deals with the evacuation and rehabilitation of soldiers. Despite security risks, the show was recorded in advance in a "live broadcast" format, and viewer voting will take place during the premiere. Every vote will contribute to saving lives.

Light show and emotional performances

The evening in the legendary 12th pavilion of VDNH was decorated with Christmas lights. The festive atmosphere was created by thousands of lighting devices powered by powerful generators. Twelve star couples took to the dance floor, each telling a unique story of love, loss, strength, and hope.

• Passionate rumba by veteran Ruslana Danilkina and Pavlo Simakin;
• Foxtrot by Dasha Kvітkova with Zhenya Kot;
• Energetic quickstep by Nelya Shovkoplias and Max Leonov.

Among the brightest moments was the performance of Natalia Denisenko and Anton Nesterko, where after the samba, Yuri Savranskij unexpectedly appeared with a bouquet of white roses and publicly confessed his love to the actress, causing a storm of emotions in the audience.

The performance of Nikita Dobrynin and Anna Manzhula to the song by ADAM "Just as I am" was emotional, honoring the memory of the artist who recently passed away. The waltz by Hryhorii Reshetnik and Yuliia Sakhnievich was equally touching — Yuliia returned to the dance floor for the first time after giving birth to her daughter, and after the performance, she was congratulated by her three sons.

Judging panel and climax of the evening

The judges' chairs were occupied by significant figures: Dmytro Dikusar, who came from the front, Natalia Mogilevska, MONATIK, and ballerina Kateryna Kukhar.

The climax of the evening was a special number prepared by Olena Shoptenko together with the wards of the Superhumans Center. Veterans on prosthetics took to the dance floor with their beloved ones, telling a story about the journey home, faith, love, and the power of movement. This caused applause and tears from the audience.
