Ralph Macchio has found his dancing mojo once again.

The original Karate Kid star earned top scores -- tying with competitor Hines Ward -- on Monday night's episode of ABC's Dancing With the Stars, which featured Donnie Burns as a guest judge/coach.

Macchio started off the season as a front-runner but had fallen behind in recent weeks. He and his professional partners Karina Smirnoff earned 36 out of 40 points, tying with Ward and his partner Kym Johnson.

Chelsea Kane, who has in recent weeks become a front-runner herself, and her partner Mark Ballas earned 34 points out of 40.

Kendra Wilkinson and Louis Van Amstel nabbed 31 points, with Kirstie Alley and Maksim Chmerkovskiy one point behind. Coming in last pace was Romeo and Chelsie Hightower, with 29 points.
The episode also featured a twist as there were two team dances: Team Chelsea (which consisted of Kane, Ballas, Macchio, Smirnoff, Romeo and Hightower) and Team Hines (Ward, Johnson, Alley, Chmerkovskiy, Wilkinson and Van Amstel). Each team scored a total of 30 points.

Also serving as one of several guest coaches on the episode were Ballas' mom, Shirley.
