"Dancing With the Stars: The Next Pro" concluded with Adele Zaikman emerging as the first winner of the spin-off series. Executive producer Conrad Green confirmed that the finalists, Selena Hamilton and AJ Pritchard, both performed admirably during the finale, but Zaikman's journey to becoming the next professional dancer on the ABC dance competition proved to be the most impressive.

Zaikman, a Latin ballroom champion with no negative feedback from the judges, will be making her debut on "DWTS" Season 35, which premieres on September 15. The series' executive producer, Conrad Green, had high praise for Zaikman's performance, advising her to enjoy the experience and be creative. While Zaikman's celebrity partner has not been announced, Green hinted that he aimed to provide her with a fun and relaxed collaborator in rehearsals.

Green also hinted at the possibility of the "Next Pro" series returning for future seasons, stating that the show's success warranted a discussion with the network.
