Summary
- Frech aims to change perceptions of disability through dance.
- He believes DWTS is more challenging than the Paralympics.
- His partner describes their chemistry as strong and protective.
Paralympian Ezra Frech is embarking on a new journey in the ballroom as part of Dancing With the Stars season 35. Frech, who has openly shared his goal of changing societal perceptions of disability, views this opportunity as a significant platform. He expressed that his life's purpose is to challenge these views, a mission he previously pursued through his athletic career in track and field.
Frech revealed that he finds the demands of ballroom dancing more challenging than competing in the Paralympics. Having grown up in track and field since age 8, he considers it his primary expertise. Now, he is dedicating several months to mastering ballroom dancing. He and his professional partner, Daniella Karagach, are developing a strong rapport, with Karagach noting her protective energy towards Frech.
Dancing With the Stars season 35 is set to premiere with a two-night event on ABC and Disney+ on Tuesday, September 15, and Wednesday, September 16, 2026. The preliminary shows have already highlighted the chemistry between Frech and Karagach, as they prepare for their first performance.
