Cast

Couples

The celebrities appeared at a press conference on May 2, 2011, this season featured only eight celebrities unlike past seasons. In the first three weeks, the competition was between teams formed by two heroes and four dreamers with a respective choreographer, representing different regions of Peru. In each week, the team with the lowest score was sentenced and one of their dreamers was eliminated, determined by the individual vote of each of the team members. From the fourth week, each hero danced with only one dreamer of his team forming eight couples. Due to the drastic change, since of the remaining 14 dreamers six of them were eliminated, the production decided to call them for the next season.
