I think he is a wonderful choreographer and he always let Chelsee shine in his routines.I think that his routines are always full of content and yet very entertaining.He manages to find the right balance unlike others I wont mention
He seems like a great teacher also and I really hope he is back next year.

He's amazing. His routines have been so vibrant, he's pushes Chelsee to her limit, showcases her with style and she's performed well each time. I must also commend Ms.Rianoff, I didnt realsie how great her choreography was until this year. A real eye opener.

Btw I shed a little tear watching Chesee and Pasha's reaction to the 40....

I too love pretty much everything he's done with Chelsee;as you say,he showcases her very well and they are consistently entertaining and Pasha must take his share of the credit for that.
I wonder if he chooses all the music as I thought I heard him say he chose the big band piece for the quickstep and for me,the tunes have been just right every time.

Pasha has certainly been choreographing really well all series.

What I also like about Pasha is the fact that when the judges give Chelsee good comments he applauds her for her efforts. I'm sure he's boosted her confidence with all this encouragement.

I agree. As much as I find Pasha to be incredibly attractive(), when they dance it is always Chelsee to whom my eyes are drawn to and I think this is partly down to her being a fab dancer, and partly due to Pasha's choreography being designed to showcase her.

There have been a LOT of content-lite showdances with a bit of ballroom or salsambcha (thanks, Monkseal) chucked in for good measure. Pasha, includes a lot of basic, recognisable steps without too much of the flash stuff, he's great.

Aliona has calmed down her choreography of late and is including more content, and look how much better Harry's doing for it.

I whole heartedly agree. I've watched the Paso more than 10 times now and am left with goosebumps. This guy is amazing. He's allowed Chelsee to shine in her own right which is amazing.

He also seems a lovely genuine person just like Chelsee. They're a match made in heaven. Watching them dance makes me feel all warm and cosy.

Thankyou Pasha x

Believe me, I'm sure you were not the only one. I couldn;t help but shed a tear when they scored the four 10's and Chelsee aknowledged Pasha as a partner.

She was soooo emotional when she thanked him

I always think he includes too many steps for Chelsee, and that's why I haven't been able to take to her as much as I'd hoped to. I think when you've got a celeb who can create beautiful flowing lines, you should show that off rather than confusing them with too much to do.

I think he's been the best pro this year in terms of choreography.

Loving Pasha.....can't imagine SCD without him now he's slotted in so seamlessly. Not like that Jared odd bod from last year!

**Prays he's back next year**

And just to lower the tone......I would!

They really are the perfect team in every way.I also like the way Chelsee says "Thank you", and blows a kiss when she gets through every week.

I can't believe that I really disliked her when I first saw her, which I must remind myself of the next time I take an instant dislike to someone.

My feelings exactly......I thought she was a thick TOWIE type but from Rochdale. The type who trades on their thickness.....TBH she might not be Mensa material but she works hard, is supremely talented and has a huge heart. Love her to bits now!

Am I being a total arse wanting her and Pasha to find lurve with each other?

Just wanted to agree with this wholeheartedly - he really has given Chelsee the opportunity to shine. He keeps the focus on her. I think it's admirable that 'the new boy' has done that without trying to create a character for himself or show himself off. He's pushed her very hard - I was concerned at one point that he was making the dances too difficult - but the result has been beautiful. He also seems a very kind teacher - I get the impression he'll be really good with a less able partner as well. I wish we'd seen more real training footage as I loved the little bits of them we did see.

I think I remember him saying how he always dances to show off his partner rather than himself, which definitely shows through his choreography.

Not at all, I think they're getting there. There's something about the way they've interacted over the last few weeks that makes me think their hearts are opening for each other

** awaits wedding news and lovely, little dancing babies**.

She could do a lot worse than him.....I bet he's a keeper who would cherish his lady! I think she saw him as a bit uncool at the start but then she was used to hanging round with idiots like that Lucien from CBB.

I think so too - it`s also helps that Chelsee is very good

I love, love, love Pasha, but I think the only time that I have been drawn to watching him was during the Shrek dance and only during repeat viewings and just because he makes me laugh every time I see it. Otherwise my eyes are on Chelsee during a performance, sometimes I barely notice that he is there.

I am trying to enjoy him while I can however, because I doubt we'll see him next year just because I think he'll be in demand, and may have other offers.
Well done Pasha.

Totally agree, he seems like such a nice man, they would make a lovely couple. He would be so good for her.

He showcased his celeb partner so well. Yes, Chelsee is talented, but he doesn't go wild with esoteric stuff (except the between the leg throw of his foxtrot, which I can't still forgive him for) and generally aced the genre of the dance he's supposed to present with Chelsee.

BIB: who? Jared, that mormon boy???

He's great at making his partner look amazing, and at making dances that are compelling in their different shapes and feel. I noticed that quality before, week to week, but it really stood out last night with the float and grace of the AS and then the earthy Paso. For me there was no error in the Paso, only the completion of the move. Don't think symmetry was intended.

He seems deeply committed to the discipline and the tradition without ever being too strict and serious. The dream partner, I'd say.

I don't get any sense of romance brewing between Pasha and Chelsee, but rather a genuine friendship and dedication to the training (phone notwithstanding).

Hope he's back next year. He's made SCD for me this year (not that I've watched it before ). It doesn't hurt that he looks so shaggable, and carries himself with good grace and dignity.
