TV dance stars Daniella Karagach and Pasha Pashkov have opened Dancing Pizza, a delivery-first restaurant brand, with Kitchen Data Systems, according to a press release.

Karagach is the winner of Dancing with the Stars. Pashkov is her husband and a fellow DWTS pro dancer.

Prepared by KitchPartner Restaurants, Dancing Pizza is available via Uber Eats at select locations. The brand hopes to roll out nationally by 2023.

The dance-themed menu was created in collaboration with KDS' culinary team and a group of dance's most award-winning talent, representing all dance genres, including ballroom, ballet, salsa, contemporary, hip-hop, jazz and Broadway. All of the pizzas were created by and named after dance pros.

"Dancing Pizza combines two things I'm passionate about," Karagach said in the press release. "When you think of pizza and dancing, you always picture good times, a fun party. Pizza is my favorite go-to for my 'cheat' meal."

"Dance is money-making magic, a phenomenal pop-culture trend," said Michael Jacobs, KitchData CEO, in the press release. "The Dancing Pizza brand is a winner. These dance stars are avidly followed on all social media platforms with 20-plus million followers across socials and a 150-plus million TV reach. They bring positive vibes with profits. What could be better?"
