Physical Challenges Ahead of Icons Week
This week, participant Karen Carney opened up about her struggles with the demanding Rumba routine. Appearing on Friday’s episode of It Takes Two with Janette Manrara, Carney discussed the physical toll the dance has taken on her body.

Despite the intensity of the routine, she expressed her appreciation for the Rumba, stating, “I love it! I never thought I would enjoy it this much.”
