Allison Holker Says It's 'Important' for Her Kids to See Her Cry: 'We're All in This Together' (Exclusive)


Allison Holker, a pro dancer and judge on FOX’s 'So You Think You Can Dance,' is partnering with CorePower Yoga in honor of Mental Health Awareness Month in May.

The dancer, 36, is mom to children Weslie, 15, Maddox, 8, and Zaia, 4 (with her late husband Stephen tWitch Boss), and in the wake of his death in 2022 Holker says that the “biggest conversation we have as a family is to talk.” And I think that really stems from me starting those kinds of conversations and honestly me just being vulnerable around them and exposing a little bit more of what I'm feeling as an adult and not being scared to show that sometimes I am low, or sometimes I don't have an answer for something, or sometimes I need help,” she adds. Holker, who says the “non-negotiables” in her own mental health tool kit include activities like “a cold plunge, a sauna, yoga sculpt, pilates and weight training,” is equally as focused on establishing healthy habits with her children — and others.
