Derek Hough’s Nastia Liukin Interview | Life in Motion

[@LifeinMotionwithDerekHough]

What would you put on your vision board? 🙏🏼

[@jadyndavis2268]

Life in Motion with Derek Hough to be very successful

[@christieinaz2923]

Life in Motion with Derek Hough To be on Dancing With The Stars. I'm always dancing and people ask if I went to dance school (which I hadn't) because I am creative and it looks like it was choreographed. I just do what feels right for the song.

[@clarissaplaatjies]

My main goal would be to be happy, its finding that happiness that's a bit of a struggle. Slowly figuring things out though, one day at a time. I'm in the process though. 😊✌🏻

[@galewohlf4729]

I would put on all my future monetary goals, career goals, and emotional goals

[@shamellelopez9784]

Higher Honors in Med School!

[@adrianops7]

Two very inspiring individuals - most certainly the most beautiful couple of DWS EVER! Love seeing how the friendship between you two has flourished.

[@Flareboxx]

You guys were my pick to win that season! Dancing with the Stars isn't nearly as enjoyable without you Derek. We miss ya.

[@handzmagic]

TRUE THAT!!! There are so many Great Dancers BUT Knew it wasn't going to be the same w/o Derek.... and I'm sure THEY (ABC) Knew it too.

[@erinvaughn3739]

Derek is such a well balanced Soul !! 💪👍💖

[@lauraelizabethgoodyear31]

He & sister Julianne are both so Real, grounded, humble, positive, dedicated to continual growth & expansion, &, multi-talented. Plus, they seem to just Adore each other.. pretty rare for siblings.

[@ilovetennis1691]

i was in the arena the day nastia fell on bars in 2012. it was such a magical moment seeing everyone on their feet cheering for her and supporting her. so special. i love you nastia❤️❤️

[@babygirlgibbs]

Wow, that was a great interview. When Nastia was talking about her Mom hanging her Dad's gold medal next to the picture of the gold medal she would end up winning gave my stomach butterflies. Oh, and if I saw yo falling down the stairs I would have been yelling NOOO! NOOO! too. You're the one my Mom and I always choose to win. We always hope you'll be one of the pro's dancing every season. The vision I have for myself is so simple for other people but I haven't been able to do for 14 years. To not only go but want to go anyplace around people alone.🙏

[@LifeinMotionwithDerekHough]

You've got this! Start with little things and work your way up to the things that are most intimidating. Trust yourself!

[@babygirlgibbs]

💓

[@Shaggygoingscoob]

The way she told it is what really got me. Girl is gifted in public speaking

[@MeganWoodard1984]

[@miscellaneousgirl5574]

I had always wanted to ballroom dance but never had anyone to dance with so I just left it alone. After watching you dance and listening to you, Derek, for the past few years got me motivated and last fall I started a class so now I have been ballroom dancing for almost a whole year and I am so glad I did it. Thanks Derek!

[@LifeinMotionwithDerekHough]

Thank YOU! People like you are the reason I am so passionate about what I do every day. It is my ultimate goal to inspire through my dance, so I can't thank you enough for sharing your story.

[@Elong.]

Loved hearing Nastia’s story and how you related to it! You both are such inspiring ppl. I hope you’ll interview more former partners:)

[@LifeinMotionwithDerekHough]

Thank you! You'll have to stay tuned and see 😏I will say that I've got a lot of great guests coming up!

[@mommabear5059]

He seems like such a pleasant, kind person.

[@rachelanne234]

I love Nastia's testimony that life is about struggling and emerging ❤

[@tamara4.9]

You guys inspire me every day. You Derek,you are just full of positive energy that you spread everywhere you show up. I love you so much.

[@LifeinMotionwithDerekHough]

Thank you so much 🙏

[@533134]

Great interview!! Derek, you have a real knack for interviews!!

[@DragonandSwan]

I'm literally teary right now because I've been struggling with a goal and you've given me a tangible solution to helping myself achieve it finally after 6 years of trying! Thank you.

[@beomyous]

Great interview! You two are one of the most positive and inspiring people ever. Love you both ❤️

[@incogneter]

this was great! you should do more interviews with former DWTS partners

[@1Kakini]

And this is why I like Derek, he is so animated and funny, it's awesome!

[@dancer-ij8kc]

The thing I'm most passionate about in life is dance....I would absolutely love to work for a dance show somewhere when im older....like DWTS or something like that. And you Derek have been one of my biggest inspirations for the the last 3 years.

[@mccdreamys]

NASTIA IS THA QUEEN

[@UnitedRedDevils]

Absolutely awesome!!! That's a couple of the brightest lights on the planet! Huge fan of Derek's, not just his skills and entertaining personally, but also his enthusiasm and encouraging nature. I've seen a lot of Olympics, and many epic battles. But Nastia vs Shawn Johnson for the overall Gold, was one of the most enthralling things the world has ever been privileged to witness:) well done you two

[@karenbradley4080]

I love how positive you both are and that you have found what is so important: vision and the journey. On my vision board is me writing a novel. I want to spread hope and stories of redemption to as many people as possible.

[@wacorbetts]

You two are just beautiful. You were both able to articulate your journeys so we'll and that's incredibly valuable and kind to share. THANK YOU!

[@shellzzabat5950]

There have been several times throughout my life that I felt just like Nastia when I had accomplished something then, I didn't know what else would be next. And the wonderful thing about life is that you can keep creating and following your bliss until your last breath.

[@aphidbug]

So awesome to hear more about Nastia's story. Amazing to think that her standing ovation defining moment was the very moment she fell the lowest she could. I think you both have a wonderful perspective in life in that it's not all about results and "winning," but truly living the life that God has called you to live and being the best human being you were created to be!

[@Maria-kg1nh]

Remember your why...find yourself! beautiful words of wisdom. I enjoy both of their sports and crafts. God's love and blessings!!!

[@lynneadale2759]

I've loved watching DWTS ever since I was a little kid, and you were always one of my mom's and my favorite dancers to watch! I always thought going on DWTS would be the absolute coolest thing, and I wanted to learn to dance, but I felt like I would be starting too late to ever be any good, so I really put that on hold. Now that I'm at college, I found a ballroom dance club that I'm joining, and I'm super excited about it!! I'm finally trying something new that I've wanted to do for over ten years!

[@CodySDivineCreators]

So inspiring! Love the manifesting bit. More Nastia videos please!!!

[@shawndarixey4678]

When Nastia was talking about what happens after you get your dream, I relate to that because I acheived my goal and now I have thought "now what?". The vision board will help me figure it out. Thank you Derek and Nastia.

[@soulaesthete8563]

That was such a great interview! Nastia brought me to tears as she shared how the love and support she received after falling was more special to her than when she didn't fall. She is truly a beautiful a person. Her "vision board" will definitely inspire many people like me! Thank you for sharing her with us, Derek. I know you can relate to the pressure of delivering flawless performances.

[@LifeinMotionwithDerekHough]

That is my goal with this channel- to inspire you and share some of the beautiful people in my life with you. I'm so glad you enjoyed 🙏

[@soulaesthete8563]

A great concept and a great channel. Thank you, Derek!

[@LORRAINEM1965]

I would like to travel and be able to see amazing places, I’m starting Ballroom classes next Monday to start getting back in shape. Thank you Derek and Nastia for this amazing interview you are both so amazing and inspiring, love you both.

[@cjinpa5713]

Stopped half way through and watched all your dances. So beautiful. My two favorite things - dancing and gymnastics so I always enjoyed the gymnasts on dwts. Had my own dance and tumbling studio and traveled competing in ballroom comps during that time. It was the time of my life! Really enjoying this channel btw. Great stuff and thank you for taking the time to make them and to connect with people. ❤️🙏🤸‍♀️🥇🥈🥈🎼

[@joysiedlecki9595]

👏💜 it! I've wanted to make a vision board for a long time. I just need to do it.

[@hannahrachelxo2281]

My favorite gymnast of all time!!! Yaaasss. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[@mylifejustinbieber3]

Love the friendship you guys have. This was awesome!

[@georafa95]

I start Ballroom dancing 3years ago because of you and your sister!I know that I can’t be a pro because I’m not that young but I would love to see how far I can go!

[@themoonatnight1868]

More of them please!! Ahhh 😌 love them lol

[@kathleenc4471]

My passion is all about Nutrition and being healthy and strong, not only physically but mentally as well. I want to have self confidence and teach others how they can be healthy and live a long life. It's about what you eat and what you do. I love your show, it's very inspirational. Thank you for putting your passion here for us to learn and enjoy.

[@KSfan4ever]

This is so interesting listening to the beautiful Nastia's personal insights and how her vision board focused her mind toward winning the gold. She is such an inspiration and I'm a huge fan of her gymnastics. I'm also a huge fan of Derek's dancing and choreo but he seems like a manic Tony Robbins wanna-be in this video. His speech is so fast and pressured.

[@marceloluizmoreno1996]

She is truly an inspiration!!!!!!!!

[@NJSportsGirl2]

I just love how open they are with is conversation and that makes me happy as a person. I have loved you guys since I was a little girl. You both make me so happy.

[@sandierads4223]

This is such a beautiful and profound message. I love this channel Derek! I am dealing with a new incurable disease in my spine that is quickly paralyzing me and I was born with Spina Bifida which didn’t paralyze me and I am having to learn how to deal with that which is scary. I am trying my hardest not to let it define me and the rest of my life and your channel is helping me do that.

[@Saraseeksthompson0211]

This is so inspiring. It’s so amazing to see what ppl can do when they set their minds to it and have support. Really needed this right now.

[@wendymathews1030]

I love Nastia! She is beautiful, inside and out.

[@bulmaroperez2250]

Gosh! Love love love Derek! I pray that my boys too one day have a big ol beautiful heart like yours! I am going to start with my vision board!😵 i made a small one last year took it down cause my hubby painted our room. And as i look back i realize that I've accomplished most of them except for taking to kids to Disneyland! So it works! It kept me focused now i just have to do a new one!

[@LifeinMotionwithDerekHough]

That is so awesome! See, when you put it on paper it can become a reality. I hope your next vision board is just as successful!

[@jeenamorelli]

LOVE WATCHING THIS SERIES!!

[@laurenschneider4769]

I have been dancing since I was 3 years old and one of my dreams has been and still to this day is to meet you and to also dance with you. I love you so much Derek 💞💞

[@mmgibson1]

I can really relate to not knowing that you have broken a bone. I recently ended up having hip surgery because I had managed to break my femur all the way through, after sustaining what they think was most likely a stress fracture caused by an over-use injury from working out so much. I remember it feeling sore while I was out for a run and thinking it was a pulled muscle or something, but later in the week while I was just doing ordinary errands I turned around, pivoted on the boo-boo leg, and totally messed it up. They think the only reason I did not fall down in the store is that my muscles are so strong, but I did start to sweat inside an air-conditioned building which was an indication that things were not right. So I am now trying to be patient, as It has been not quite 3 months and I still have a pronounced limp, but it surprises people when they see how far along I am and not even using a cane anymore. I credit getting a lot of exercise before that happened - I was into yoga, pilates, HIIT, and running. I've gotten to the point where I can do some of the yoga (I have to modify a lot of it), and I am more conscious now of using my core and strengthening my lower back and quads, but I am coming along. One of the most challenging parts of this whole experience was having to lie still in bed or sit and do nothing, and be okay with that. It made me aware that part of me always wants to be doing something all the time so I can avoid really thinking, and I get busy becoming a human doing instead of a human being. Not sure what I would put on my vision board; I will have to meditate on that. I have a lot of time to relax these days.

[@crg5460]

Derek should have an interview with Bindi

[@lauraelizabethgoodyear31]

Next Lifetime: DANCER, FOR SURE. I Know I was, probably in Many lives before, otherwise these things wouldn't have been used in this one as motivations, creative outlets & 'rejuvenators' throughout my years of education: Tap @ 5yo, baton captain in middle school, cheerleading in HS, ballet & gymnastics through College/Nursing school. I CANNOT keep my body still when it 'hears'/FEELS great rockin' tunes.. Impossible! Very often I'd get up & dance in my LR during certain inspiring dances on DWTS- fo sho any of your stuff, plus Mark's Amazing jams w/ Kristy Y. & Shawn J. Please know, you guys brought me out of a Very dark time after total exhaustion & depression/despair from raising a son with autism. Now I'm dancin again! #BORNAGAIN Infinite Love & Gratitude Derek (& tell Mark too, since you guys are essentially like twins!)

[@handzmagic]

YES Wish Bindi would come join in with Derek! 💕👍

[@matthewkretschmer7010]

You and Nastia Liukin look nice together, especially after dancing to with her on Dancing with the Stars.

[@bloomany]

Such an inspiring video, got goosebumps 😃 you both are amazing

[@tiyaniwhidbee7021]

I love this series so much, you inspire me

[@kendrao9647]

Excellent interview!!

[@budgetingwithkate]

What a great video! My daughter is a competitive Irish Dancer! She definitely needs a vision board!

[@Alteregodezines]

Great inspiration! My dream is to be able to inspire others through creativity. I have created character sculptures to put smiles on children with special needs and have found my something special.

[@swirlyful]

he always says it like she just chose a random stage name or something but nastia is just like the regular russian nickname for someone named anastasia... like if she were named katherine and competed as katie or something

[@hs489242]

So inspiring!!

[@francescavaccarezza618]

Love those two 💛

[@marlybeske3053]

Years ago in my community there was a class where we made visual boards. (A picture is worth a thousand words.). There were about 9 goals on my board. It took a few years; but, because i could SEE my goals (we used magazine pictures) they were kept in forefront of my mind and each one got accomplished. It really works. Derek, sounds from the comments, that you’re getting to be good like Anthony Robbins, at motivating others to reach their passions. Also, in this day of competitiveness, so nice to see a loyal friendship, as yours with Mark.

[@DeidraDianeWallace]

This is SO great!

[@anthony5570]

These vlogs are awesome buddy. See you at your PA show 😀 Peace Ant

[@oda304]

Nastia is just the shortened version of Anastasia - it's not a totally new name like the video implies. Just like Joe is short for Joseph, Alex is short for Alexander.

[@rubbersole79]

Wow. She's so adorable.

[@Hans6789-j9t]

My vision board would be to be ballet critic for a major news organization as ballet is the love of my life. But I would only review the dancers that left me feeling something special. I do not have the heart to write negatively about a dancer. There are so many amazing dancers but very very few who are gifted with something that goes way beyond technique . Many dancers have moments of brilliance but few are brilliant dancers. Example: gelsey Kirkland and misha Baryshnikov Such a positive person derek😇😇😇🙏🏻

[@dogzrzosmz]

this is incredibly inspiring, gave me goosebumps

[@jennygirl8849]

Awesome interview!

[@Carriedawayncaffinated]

These two make a beautiful couple

[@lep6214]

Nastia is sooooo pretty!!!!❤️❤️❤️💁🏼‍♀️

[@laneynicole7108]

Thinking about my vision board now

[@feniecalibuag6201]

I enjoyed watching and listening to you both.inspiring message and motivational too.thank you!!

[@josephstevens9888]

If I ever have a son or daughter, I hope they have that attitude that Nastia displayed in this interview.

[@cannedheat300]

You both are terrific athletes and people. Keep up the great work! For me, Mikhail Baryshnikov aka Misha popularized Russian or Ukranian nicknaming practices in the 1980's so learning Nastia was Russian just prior to the 2008 Olympics, I assumed her name was also a diminutive.

[@georgeroe9750]

It seems obvious that Nastia Liukin is not only a beautiful woman she's a beautiful person. Hopefully her bad experience has not left unrepairable scars.

[@Anne-nonymouse]

Wow! I really love your work and videos! You're so motivating and u have so much charisma! I definitely cant wait for more videos! I loved nastia's story! On my vision board my goal is to find a way to help others through medicine and research :)

[@Marisa4412]

Derek you are deep

[@jaykb6587]

I would just like to share a moment with you from my goddaughter's life and goals. She was always wanting to dance with you, Derek. Since she was good friends with one of the stars on DWTS, she was offered an introduction to you and a visit to the set. However, she tried to always succeed on her own and never took her friend up on his offer. Until she was engaged and ready to start a new chapter in her life. She ended up with tickets for the show and was going to accept the introduction to you that she always dreamed of. Now, this lady was a success in a field that successes come hard in. Financially, she was on the top of her game. But her goal was still... "I'm going to dance one dance with Derek Hough.". Everything was in place for her culmination of her life goal... Until her heart gave out just before her 40th birthday. But if she hadn't had that goal to share a dance with you.... I have always wondered if she would ever have achieved the success and happiness she did. You inspire so many people, Derek. Even though you probably never know it. Thank you for giving my goddaughter the vision of success and the ability to achieve it. All, that is, but her last dance... 😘💕

[@miriamb4962]

i wonna be on world of dance! but i dont think i have enough training :( you guys are amazing!

[@morgangreenlee2091]

I'm "old" now, a ripe 26 😂, and I'm going after my dream to compete in figure skating 🤗

[@destyneefloyd6804]

Derek Hough

[@sandgroper1970]

If you ever see Shawn Johnson's video's she also says the same , the Olympics were the goal, then what. Now she often says that the Olympics were a whole lifetime ago , a different life.

[@kaprantil]

Derek you should totally date Nastia! You both are such nice people and adorable together. My mom says so too❤️

[@multiyapples]

Nice.

[@heidiWava]

Nastia looks like Green Smoothie Girl (Robyn Openshaw) to me. She's also a pretty famous Utahn! For my Vision Board - it's got to be a close family. And to help others. I have some specific ideas, but working out details. Want to be in a music video I am going to get people together for? That is one of my daydreams too (Music Video). My real dream is to connect with people. I'm a fellow Utahn.

[@dannac_8888]

34,000 Subs internally scream, "NOOOOOOO" when you fell down the stairs...

[@ThatGirlLib]

The big question is after you achieve what you set out for, what’s next?

[@b3ngu1n]

Do a video with Nile Wilson

[@Shaggygoingscoob]

Yo. Nastia Liukin should give a Ted Talk

[@OKai26]

Anastasia and Nastia is the same name btw

[@danceballetacro]

When I was a kid I wanted to be her

[@frederickflavell6942]

I was a world champion

Skateboarder and world record holder and came to the wall of now what? I can relate, what will be the new branch of my tree?

[@2009ccastillo]

Am I the only one who want to cry right now?😫like ugly cryinh😢 XD...not again...🤦🏾‍♀️ Where does that driven person go? Will that ignition fire ever come back?...thank you guys for taking me there at least in my imagination. 😊🙌🙏🙋🏽‍♀️ I pray the Lord me and that person (my young self) get in peace with eachother. I am sure God will change this horrible feeling I have. I am numb. Thank you Kourt Cobain 🤣🤣🤣👏👍 The good thing is that I still can laugh. If you feel me. Cheer up. The best is yet to come for you. God bless

[@Ekone1991]

are you guys together

[@dtae7855]

Jose Burgos No they’re not. They both have partners, but I love their chemistry!

[@justbecause9645]

Jose Burgos no he hits on every girl he talks to.

[@frankpasquale3221]

Wonder if he ever got nastia with her?

[@ЕленаКошелева-р3б]

Сложно поверить что она когда то разговаривала по русски
