As most of the world is already aware, Shawn Johnson earned the coveted mirror ball trophy on this season of Dancing with the Stars. Congratulations to both Shawn and her partner Mark Ballas. It was a well deserved victory.
For those who aren’t addicted to the show, here’s my favorite of Shawn’s dances from the season — the freestyle:
No doubt Shawn was already admired by many for her athletic ability and work ethic. We now also stand in awe of her willingness to step outside of her comfort zone.
Win or lose, Shawn, we’re always proud to have such a strong and inspirational young woman to represent Iowa.
