A Focus On the Finalists – James & Sharna (S23)


A Well-Deserved Focus On

Season 23’s Fabulous Finalists

– James & Sharna




Truly a Season that will be marked within the Ballroom’s history as one that was practically overflowing with incredible Talent, stunning Choreography, and fine Dancing, Season 23’s unique Finals was a rarely see phenomenon where any one of the Show’s 4 Finalists could have Won its highly sought after, glittering Mirror Ball Trophy and remained MORE than duly justified!

Certainly no exception to that expressed sentiment, James Hinchcliffe and his Professional Dance Partner, Sharna Burgess, will likely hereafter be remembered as one of the Shows all-time favorite Couples, and most successful Pairings, having amazingly managed to stand out - even among the fantastic Competitors such as this Season had to offer - and furthermore, having done so, with an almost effortless ability and the greatest of ease!

Here’s a look back at TeamStopAndGo’s spectacular Season:

With James, undoubtedly, having been the Leading Man of Season 23 (aided, of course, with his Pro, Sharna’s BRILLIANT Choreography!), Dancing with the Star’s Head Judge, Len Goodman, unequivocally paid James the highest compliment and honor that either he or the Show and its integrity as a Formal Ballroom Competition - of which Len encapsulates and proudly represents - could bestow when he remarked, following James & Sharna’s 24-hour Fusion,
“I can say no more than this, I wish I could dance like you.”

Finishing in a MORE than well-deserved 2nd Place overall, James disclosed of his time on the Show,
“It meant the world!  … I never would have thought at the start of all this that, you know, Sharna and I would be standing up here, finishing Second in this Competition!  Congrats to Laurie & Val – I mean, they were tremendous from Day One!”

Also taking a moment to thank his incredible Pro Partner and friend, Sharna (to whom he gave one of his most treasured possessions, the Racing Suite wore the day he got “Back in the Game”, following his terrible accident in 2015.), and others, James also added in closing,

“I’m so proud of her and the work that she put into making it look like I know how to dance!  … thank you to all of the TeamStopAndGo supporters, my family, Becky [Rebecca Dalton, his Girlfriend] … everybody!  It’s been a great time!”
