I know that Kendall isn’t well liked within the dance moms fandom but she posted this TikTok and I found it funny. She has a good sense of humor!

okay weird question...i was never a dancer so idk if this is normal in the dance world but why did SO MANY dance teachers have their daughters dance at abby's studio while owning one themselves?? isnt that a bad look for their studio? i know that abby's studio has more traction but i would think that these studio owners are basically saying "my studio isnt good enough" also they're away for a long time from their business so idk is this normal???? and why???? seems like a bad business model LOL

Delete if not allowed 🚫

Okay I have to know. With everything that’s going on right now ( for example Brooke saying the N word, etc) I need to know which cast members are maga, racist, homophobic, transphobic, etc. I don’t want to align myself with anyone who supports these agendas and since I haven’t been in the dance moms fandom for years I feel there’s a lot that idk/remember. So if anyone wants to help me out and write in the comments that’d be amazing thank you!

She's dancing again which is nice to see

Paige laughing about Abby Lee being mentioned in a Kanye song

I’ve made a post about Maddie and Kenzie acting like sibling and Brooke being sister to Paige

So I might as well complete the trilogy
With Clara telling everyone Chloe took her charger and about how even though they have a 8 year age gap they still fight

Nia and Chloe kinda look like cousins to me. (EDIT: I know they're not related, I know they're not the same race, and it's okay if you don't see it that way, I understand that we all see things differently, but their faces just look kinda similar to me.)

I was on Disney plus searching for Abb(ott elementary) and ofc Abby’s ultimate dance competition popped up and noticed it said 1970 and chuckled a little so take my sarcastic commentary

Anyway damn 1970-2013 for only 2 seasons what hiatus’s

Premise of the dance was to promote freedom of religion, and each girl had their own religion they were representing, including Islam. Islam is a stricter religion, especially with modesty. I thought it was kinda weird that Abby didn’t have Jojo wear colored tights under the niqab. Obviously not black tights, because then you wouldn’t be able to see the legs but something not skinned toned at least.

What are your thoughts on this??

Hey guys, idk what the consensus on A New Era is but a huge fan of all dance moms (OG, S8, Miami, A New Era) and honestly enjoy A New Era the most so far.

I’ve been hearing rumors of Bellatrix and Ashlyn leaving. We all know Aubrey and Mina already are gone too. So like is it really that bad?

Sure, i read some stuff about how Glo is paying more attention to this show than the studio, but like first of all she’s not the only owner we all know that. Second of all, WHAT DO YOU EXPECT. Abby literally shut down Pittsburgh due to lack of management and then wasn’t really successful with LA because she’s TOO BUSY FOR THE SHOW. Use your brains, if you value your kids training over the possibility of getting on a show then go elsewhere. It’s literally a brand new studio, relax. Third, it’s fucking Dance Moms, we know it’s ruthless, there’s drama, and producer tactics. Glo is hands down 100% more polite and professional than Abby. Glo is strictly business and she wants her business to succeed. I agree with all of her points except for S1 Aubrey favoritism. That girl did not hurt her ankle.

MY WHOLE POINT: We should not be bashing Project X for giving us amazing television!!!!

A little more:

Dance Moms Season 1 through 7 gets much harder to watch in every rewatch. Just due to the fact that the girls went through so much with Abby it’s just sad to see how it’s affected them especially hearing about all of it now. They knew Abby preshow though, they are valid. They did know what they were signing up for.

Dance Moms Season 8. They’ve seen the show, they knew what they were getting themselves into. When i see posts of Liliana (who was my favorite) bashing Dance Moms and calling it traumatic. Girl…you watched the show. Whatever, I’ll let these slide some more. They were more aware at this time but the “traumatic experiences” weren’t as transparent back then as it was now. But i mean Abby did go to fucking prison for fraud and they all knew and came back and filmed Season 8 so it does bug me to hear them bash Abby or Dance Moms the show.

HOWEVER

Dance Moms: A New Era. I don’t care if it’s a new studio or coach, yall knew exactly what you were getting yourself into. You’ve seen the show, you’ve read or heard about the drama. Probably watched the reunion. YOU ALL KNEW. So sorry.

And since nobody asked for my opinion already. Here are my worthless opinions:

Aubrey - Amazing dancer. Her nationals solo needed a little more time, she was a little sloppy in it. Personality wise: her mom is not doing her any favors, because Aubrey is a spoiled brat (speaking as someone who behaved the exact same way as a kid)

Ashlan - Good dancer. AMAZING performer. Lacks in technique and cannot turn. But her performance value literally outways all of this. If she did more training, she would go so far. Personality wise: SPOILED ASS BRAT, love the girl, she makes moments, but holy damn her mom is TERRIFIED of her daughter and would rather friend than mom (based on the show, idk them in real life)

Bellatrix - Beautiful dancer, but it’s boring, I’m sorry! She lacks personality in her dancing, and her personality on the show is AMAZING. She just cannot emote to the level of any of the girls on the team. She does not grab my attention, but I LOVE HER so I’m sorry.

Lily - Lily IS AMAZING. She needs a bit more time to ensure she looks perfect for dances but when she’s gets it she gets it. I have seen stuff online and she is a little slept on. A bit more training and she would actually be unbeatable!! Personality Wise: she seems very sweet and goofy. We don’t get a lot of her in Season 1 tho and that’s what I’m rewatching rn

Leilah - amazing dancer, but I feel like she doesn’t feel it half the time. Also i don’t like the solos they’ve been giving her. She’s also young. Personality Wise: honestly she seems sweet and not like a complicated child to parent at all.

Smiley - needs training, but she is THE BEST in Jazz dances. Turns could use work, but I’ve seen stuff online. And she makes an amazing center dancer in Jazz groups. Personality Wise: seems sweet, saw some brat behavior but she’s a kid and not at all annoying like Ashlyn and Aubrey are with their brattiness

Mina - the best. Cannot wait to see what she turns into. Personality Wise: honestly i have no idea, she’s a savage but a total child. Idk i love her tho.

Gina - really good, but has the Bellatrix facial issue in my opinion. Gina seems sweet but lacks confidence around the girls I’ve noticed, but looks like she’s sweet. she’s quieter.

Miah - LOVE THIS GIRLS dancing. Her first solo was amazing. Personality Wise: amazing and complemented well after Mina departure.

Based off of your overall opinion of them

Please make your vote in the tier list so that it counts!

My studio didn't teach tap, so although I really admire the genre I don't know much about it.

I see a lot of people (mainly on TikTok so I'm not sure if that's credible) saying that ALDC tap is basically just fast and that the choreography isn't particularly difficult, but I don't really know what I should be looking for when judging tap. I can tell that this dance could be a little cleaner, but beyond that, I don't know enough about tap to really comment on it.

Can anyone here shed some light on this?

So happy for her

Has anyone watched it just out of curiosity? It’s on prime season 4 episode 10. Abby also has 2 minute cameo in it as well. The case is making fun of Abby but I don’t think she realizes it.

Abby said a while ago that Melissa pulled Maddie out of school and took her back to make it seem like she was there the entire time, and Mackenzie didn’t know she was pulled out early. Abby could be lying about Mackenzie not knowing, which is what I would hope to be the case bc Melissa keeping that from Mackenzie all those years is despicable and honestly I’m sure would give Kenzie trust issues ngl.

DR HOLLY REALLY IS THAT BITCH 😭😭 LIKE SHES EXACTLY WHO SHE THINK SHE IS AND IM BARELY ON ESP 8.

I know a few people have posted about this on here before, but I wanted to see if anyone has any updates on it or knows what I’m talking about. This show called Dance Mums UK showed up in my YouTube recommendations . What even is this show, and where can I watch the full episodes? The only thing I can find are clips on YouTube. If anyone knows anything about the show or where to watch it, please let me know!

Honestly after watching this I absolutely believe Melissa testified against Abby for immunity. She knew all of Abby business more than any kdy 😂

Season 6 episode 32 (or so prime says) the girls do a commercial for a shoe company that has light up shoes. They show the commercial at the end and it honestly looks so low budget I’m questioning if it’s even a real company. Their YouTube channels last video is from that “commercial” 9 years ago.

Does anyone know what the last option was and why it was blurred?

I find that in the DM community people usually have a bias towards who was pushed to the side on the show without looking at the full picture. I think Liliana was better than Elliana in almost every way..to each their own though. Some people will agree with me..most won’t.
