Henry Byalikov is familiar to Dancing with the Stars fans as a pro in Season 18, where he was paired with Diana Nyad, and for his six seasons in troupe. After Season 20, he made a big change in his career path and headed to New York to chase his Broadway dreams.

He's now entrenched in the musical theatre world and has done national tours of Dirty Dancing, where he met fiancée Kelsey Kramer, and The Bodyguard. He is currently a swing on the My Fair Lady National Tour.
