\"Tonight's Dance on @dancingwiththestars is about life and how it's not always perfect and when you think it's impossible to move mountains and you're at your lowest moment and you think all doors are closed you need to rise up and rise unafraid and move mountains,\" Umansky wrote.

The dance earned the pair a score of 24 out of 30 from the judges.
