‘DWTS’ Alum Criticizes Pro Partner jan Ravnik, Sparks Defense From Jennifer Affleck

Former ‌ Dancing‍ with the⁤ stars professional Maksim Chmerkovskiy sharply criticized pro dancer Jan Ravnik’s technique ‌and‌ teaching⁤ ability, prompting a social ​media defense ⁤from his celebrity partner, Jennifer Affleck. The exchange, which unfolded publicly, has⁢ ignited debate among fans of the show regarding the standards for professional​ dancers and the support provided to celebrity ‌contestants.

Chmerkovskiy, who ⁢won DWTS in 2014, expressed his concerns following Ravnik’s performance with Affleck.‍ “No, we do not ⁣have to give him⁤ grace,” Chmerkovskiy said, responding to fellow judge Julianne Murgatroyd’s comment ⁢that Ravnik ​was still learning in his frist season. He continued, “I’m sorry, Jan⁢ has absolutely no business being a‍ pro on ​ Dancing with the stars. There’s zero‌ foundation, technique, quality, understanding of the partnership.” He‍ added he felt‍ “emotional” watching Ravnik, stating, “It is absurd…he had no idea⁤ what [a] foxtrot is supposed to look like.”

murgatroyd echoed‌ some of Chmerkovskiy’s sentiments, stating she ⁤felt “bad” that Affleck “is not‍ getting taught the basics,” and that the actress was at a “major disadvantage.” chmerkovskiy also revealed he had similar critiques “weeks​ ago” and hoped someone would intervene to help guide Ravnik. ‌He described Affleck’s casting ‌as “a missed opportunity,” noting she‍ has “no partner” to guide her.

Affleck responded to the criticism earlier ⁢today with a TikTok video. The clip shows her pantomiming typing furiously while defending ​Ravnik in ‍online comments. Text on the video reads,”Me when anyone talks‍ trash‍ about Jan.” The audio ​utilizes ‍the “Take It Down”⁣ meme from motivational speaker Dr. Umar Johnson, ‍with Ravnik lip-syncing, “Take it down. Take it down. Take it ⁢down. We need it ​gone. Take it down. ⁢That doesn’t ⁣represent me ​or what we ⁤need to ‌be doing.”‌

Dancing with ⁣the ‍Stars airs Tuesdays at 8 p.m. ET on ABC‌ and streams on Disney+.

‘Dancing With the⁤ Stars’‌ Pro Jan ravnik Receives Support ⁢From Jennifer affleck Following Criticism From Former​ Star Maks Chmerkovskiy

Jennifer Affleck publicly defended her Dancing With ⁣the Stars partner, Jan Ravnik, after former‌ pro Maks Chmerkovskiy sharply⁢ criticized Ravnik’s‌ technique and teaching ability.

Chmerkovskiy,⁤ speaking on ​the​ October 24th episode of the ⁣podcast, stated, “I’m sorry, Jan has absolutely no business being a pro on Dancing with‍ the Stars. There’s zero foundation,technique,quality,understanding of the partnership.” He further claimed Ravnik “had‌ no idea what [the] foxtrot is suppose ⁣to look ⁤like” and questioned how he could effectively teach the dance. These remarks followed Murgatroyd’s initial ⁢offer of “grace” to⁤ Ravnik, ⁣acknowledging ​it was his first season as‌ a professional.

affleck responded to the ⁢criticism via TikTok, posting a video on October 26th ‍where she mimed angrily typing on ​her ⁢phone with the caption, “Me when anyone talks trash about Jan.”⁣ Ravnik appeared ⁣alongside‌ her, gesturing that the anger was unproductive.

‘Dancing with the Stars‘ Pro Maks Chmerkovskiy Criticizes partnering​ of Jen Affleck‍ with Taylor ⁤Swift Dancer

LOS ANGELES, november 9, 2023 – Dancing with the‌ Stars professional dancer Maks Chmerkovskiy has publicly questioned the decision​ to pair contestant⁣ Jen Affleck with ‌Jan ravnik, ⁣a dancer primarily known for his work with Taylor Swift, calling the casting ⁤”absurd.” Chmerkovskiy and his wife,Peta Murgatroyd,voiced concerns that Affleck is not receiving adequate foundational instruction in ballroom ⁣dance​ due to‌ Ravnik’s lack of experience in ​the discipline.

The criticism stems from ⁣observations during⁣ Affleck’s performances, with Chmerkovskiy noting that she showed advancement with guidance but quickly faltered without it.”one dance delivered some sort of direction, like, okay … he is going the right direction as long as he has that help ​and foundation. And than it‌ just‍ [went] off​ the cliff,” he said, according‌ to People ⁤ magazine. While emphasizing he holds “zero against [Ravnik] whatsoever,” Chmerkovskiy labeled the pairing a “missed prospect.”

Murgatroyd echoed these sentiments,⁤ stating Affleck, 26, is at a “major disadvantage” and “not ‍getting taught the​ basics‍ that she needs.” She pointed to Ravnik’s ⁤background as ⁤a key factor in his hiring, stating, “They hired him, babe. They ​did it. They hired him. He’s a Taylor Swift dancer.​ It’s the obvious reason why he ⁢is hired.”

Despite acknowledging Ravnik as a “lovely guy”​ and “great dancer,” Murgatroyd ultimately argued that “hiring a non-ballroom dancer ⁢to teach‍ ballroom dancing to a‌ celebrity as a job is outrageous.” Dancing with the Stars airs Tuesdays at 8 p.m. ET on ABC and⁣ Disney+.
