“Move Live on Tour” played the last of its 48-show tour in Los Angeles, California, at the famous Orpheum Theater on July 26…. an it was SOLD OUT (of course!). This was a homecoming for Derek, Julianne, and many of the dancers after an exhausting, yet fulfilling, two months of constant performing, traveling, and dancing. Many of Derek and Julianne’s loved ones and friends came to support them in this last show including their parents Bruce and Marrianne, Shirley Ballas; Julianne’s friends Cara Santana & Pia Toscano; and Derek’s DWTS Season 18 partner, Amy Purdy!

In fact… Derek, Julianne, and all of the MOVE dancers were very reflective of their last show in LA. They were all incredibly GRATEFUL for the experience and thankful to the fans. Check out their wonderful tweets and comments about this last show and the tour.

Even though this was the last show of the tour…. Derek has alluded to the idea that the tour was SO SUCCESSFUL that they could be going on tour again, as soon as “next year”. I am sure that this piece of news made many people very happy! So until next year…. 😉 But another small “Move Live on Tour” treat was that Derek and the MOVE dancers performed one of their numbers on the “Young Hollywood Awards”. I have a post coming up on that as well! =)

‘Move Live on Tour’ went down south to Riverside, California, for a SOLD OUT matinee and night show at the Fox Performing Arts Center on July 19! Since Riverside is so close to Los Angeles, many of Derek and Julianne’s friends came out to the show. We also saw our co-creators/directors Napoleon and Tabitha (NAPPYTABS) at the show supporting their beloved cast & crew. It was so good to see them again with Derek, Julianne, and all the MOVE dancers.

A great article from the Deseret News of Derek and Julianne’s visit to Primary Children’s Hospital!

The Hough siblings were en route to their live tour and agreed to visit Primary Children’s Hospital even after a traffic accident delayed them and their crew.

“The Houghs are kind of family friends of Steve Young, and so the Forever Young Foundation coordinated to bring them here and have them perform,” said Sandra Orton, the hospital’s communications specialist.

During the event, held in the hospital’s music-therapy area, the siblings performed a salsa dance, answered questions, signed autographs and talked with the children.

Julianne and Derek Hough provided such a distraction for each child in attendance.

“They went out into the crowd and they met with every single patient in that room,” Orton said. “They were cute with the children, and you could tell they really enjoyed being there. It was really fun to see them interact with the kids and how sweet they were with them.”

In conjunction with the superhero theme, staff members hung a poster in the playroom that read, “Spider-Man’s real identity revealed,” which featured the picture of a young patient.

“Derek noticed the connection,” Orton said, “and walked up to the kid and said, ‘Hey, can I shake your hand? It’s really cool that I now know who Spider-Man is.'”

It was a happy homecoming for Julianne and Derek as their successful ‘Move Live on Tour’ played the Maverik Center in West Valley/Salt Lake City, Utah, on July 17th! However, there was a setback in that the show had to be postponed by a day (original show date 07/17/2014) because the tour buses were delayed by a freeway accident. Julianne and Derek took to social media to let their fans know that the show would be delayed and gave their condolences to anyone who might have been affected by the accident.

‘Move Live on Tour’: Denver, CO (07/15/2014) – Miscellaneous Photos, Fan Tweets, Photos, and Videos!

Denver Bailey2

‘Move Live on Tour’ played a SOLD OUT show at the Paramount Theater in Denver, Colorado, on July 15th! Unfortunately, Derek was still feeling the pain from the injury he got at the end of the Grand Forks show and we found out that he had hurt his back. =( Derek also shared a video on Instagram of him getting treatments, including psoas and dry needling. Looks painful, but I guess it worked for him because he said that he “felt like a new man”! I hope that Derek truly is healing and not dancing in pain. Good thing the tour ends in 10 days!

PARADE MAGAZINE also did a recent interview with Derek who discusses the tour, his new book, DWTS, and other fun stuff. Read an excerpt below!

Right now you’re on tour with your sister. What’s your favorite thing about performing in front of a live audience?
“Everything! I mean that’s literally why we did that. It’s my favorite thing. We did it for a lot of different reasons, but there’s nothing like that quite compares to performing in front of a live audience. Even if you feel tired or don’t feel like you can do it, the second those lights hit you, you just find something and I like connecting and I love it. Things go so fast and it’s so much fun.”

Between DWTS, the Move Live tour, and your other projects you seem to be constantly busy. What do you do in your down time?
“In my down time? Well I have a book coming out in August, so I’ve been working on that the past several months, but I love adventure. I love scuba diving and rock climbing–I love things that make me feel like Indiana Jones, basically. I love to go snowboarding—all the things that my producers would be terrified if I told them I was doing.”

Speaking of Derek’s book… He has finally started promoting it on twitter! His book, Taking the Lead: Lessons From A Life In Motion will be released on August 5, 2014, and Derek will be promoting the book on a national book tour. Check out the details at PureDerekHough. You can pre-order the book here and on Amazon!

Now, for the first time ever, Derek opens up about his life and the lessons he’s learned on and off the dance floor, revealing how he went from bullied boy to ballroom boss. He details how his experiences have taught him to embrace a positive outlook, and shares the insights he’s gained working with celebrity partners, along with never-before-told, behind-the-scenes stories from the show.

Throughout, Derek spills the real secrets of learning to dance—connection, respect, and cooperative commitment—and demonstrates how he draws on the lessons of dance and competition to embrace and overcome the daily challenges we all face.

Lastly, check out these wonderful photos from the iCourage Instagram account. I am not sure which show these photos are from, but I do know they are from this past week. I am thinking Windsor, ON…. =P
