It's going to utilize the talents of all of them to put this number together as choreographers."[18]Hough then went on to win the Emmy Award for Outstanding Choreography.[19]On September 12, 2015, Hough won his second Emmy Award for Outstanding Choreography, alongside Julianne Hough and Tessandra Chavez.

I started working on a very special routine that's not for the show [Dancing with the Stars]. I'm choreographing a number for our world champion ice dancers Meryl Davis and Charlie White to perform at the Olympics next year. They graciously asked me to do it, and how could I say no? It's truly an honor, and they're amazing.[21]
