Most directors do. They don't have time to choreograph everything and they also want some room for the dancer to put themselves into it. It's more genuine that way. And that is what made Maddie stand out. She would take it and add in her own stuff without fear and make it better than Abby or Gianna had choreographed it to be,
When I do my solos, and I think this applies to most people, my choreographer always likes to see what I'm most strong at, add those, and then lets me choose specific details like arms
【 Hollywood ALDC 】 I know right my dream was to be on dance moms I knew it would never happen but now it really can’t bc Abby is leaving Dance Moms forever
i wish that they showed this side of abby all the time, she gives really good constructive criticism and gives credit when the kids do things well,, it’s a pity that the show has become so driven by the drama
Yes! I agree! It is a great teaching technique that she uses but the producers choose to only show the drama and Abby's rudest moments. If you were able to see the true story, the reason she would be yelling would be understanding. Thank you for pointing this out.
She can be toxic at times, not that many of the original cast members even want communicate with her. So that is very telling and there is definitely animosity between former dancers, mothers, and even other choreographers who have worked with her.
@@melissav3894 I think some of that came from the mothers and the kids thinking they were more famous than they actually were. Or certain pushy stage mothers furious that their baby wasn't the star and the kids copying their example. Plus the pressures of doing an actual TV show together with unreasonable demands from production as opposed to being a normal student. Not to mention the jail thing would have put some parents off. Abby isn't faultless in that but I think neither party is faultless.
I dont know if it's just me but this clip seemed to feel like an actual rehearsal or practice, it was calm there was any screaming, crying or whatever. If only they would air this more
Yeah when Abby is yelling it's because she has a mother in her face telling her how to do her job or it's because it's the fifth time he's told a kid the same thing. You don't see the lead-up. In reality she wouldn't have the energy to be that angry all the time for every rehearsal.
Abby is a perfectly well rounded lady, she gives constructive criticism and creates the choreography based on the kids abilities. It’s a shame the show has been driven to drama, if more people saw this side of Abby, a lot more people would agree with her. Please make more of these extended rehearsal videos :)
i agree that this season isn’t very bad, but all the other seasons were child abuse on tv. she was a child abused she mentally abused them. but she has learned so that’s why this time she’s easier on the kids
We love seeing the ALDC dancers relaxed too! Check out the playlist for our series "Dance Moms: Dance Party" for more fun and less drama here - bit.ly/2L30ZwY
I think on the show yes. Because the producers tell her to be angry as often as possible. But off the show no. Because when she gets mad at a kid, like when she got a bit touchy about Pressley's foot, it's usually because she's corrected them multiple times or they're not putting in the work
The part when Abby was chasing the girls with the mask absolutely killed me 😂 they just ran like they’d seen a ghost 😂❤️ I would love to see more of rehearsal time
No offense but to Lifetime, but it’s dumb not to post the rehearsals. Only 20%, maybe less want to only watch the momma drama. But other than that people wanna watch the kids dance. They are incredible.
Maybe Joanne is rude but at least she only minds her own business most of the time and stands to Abby for her daughter, while Ashely and Stacy I think they are the fakest moms and most annoying they always like to put others down and think that they are above everybody else. They such a toxic women
I really like this kind of content (where it shows Abby teaching the dances) way more than all the drama bits. It's actually pretty interesting and genuine and it's a pretty nice break between all the nonsense of the adults fighting lol
It's obvious that all of Abby's struggles she went through between season 7 and 8 really changed her outlook as a teacher. Just these clips alone, to me, prove that she is finally able to put trust in her dancer's ability (whether or not this is solely because she can't teach the same way anymore)
This was a really nice thing that Abby did to let Pressley know she wasn't trying to be rude. "Okay, what you did wrong there, I'm just coaching you your alignment went over here instead of that went straight"
Abby can actually be a really good person and I know she is a good person because she just wants these kids to do the steps correctly and she wants to make them stars and it’s the best for them and if it’s their dream then Abbys just basically making these kids do what they want to do which is becoming stars in dance I’m also a ballerina and I started ballet when I was five years old and now I am 11 years old and next I’m in grade 3 ballet and next year I’m going to grade 5 ballet because I’m skipping grade 4 because I have a great technique so my teacher is just really doing the best for me and now I’m even able to skip a grade and become a professional ballerina so anything that teachers do is just for the best of you just exactly like what parents do
New episodes Tuesdays at 9/8c!
Love you
I Love DANCE MOMS
Can you please post Berkleigh's solo ? It would make everyone really happy
Looks like Pressley fell out of her turns. Time 9:18PM Sat 8/24/19
pls unlock episodes from season 7-8 on your website....PLSSSSS
Does anyone else notice how Abby leaves certain creative details up to the dancer? I would have never known that.
It's a really good skill for choreography
Most directors do. They don't have time to choreograph everything and they also want some room for the dancer to put themselves into it. It's more genuine that way. And that is what made Maddie stand out. She would take it and add in her own stuff without fear and make it better than Abby or Gianna had choreographed it to be,
When I do my solos, and I think this applies to most people, my choreographer always likes to see what I'm most strong at, add those, and then lets me choose specific details like arms
I like how they do that they have to think and represent their best and learn more and more
i noticed how she comes up with what move or trick, like put a turn then go into a jump, but she lets them do which turns and jumps they do
Love seeing Abby nice and calm and teaching them.
Yea she was going through a rough time at the time of filming
She actually starting to get agitated. And being a little passive aggressive.
This is how she always is, producers don’t show this tho
【 Hollywood ALDC 】 I know right my dream was to be on dance moms I knew it would never happen but now it really can’t bc Abby is leaving Dance Moms forever
Yeah I know
i wish that they showed this side of abby all the time, she gives really good constructive criticism and gives credit when the kids do things well,, it’s a pity that the show has become so driven by the drama
Amelia Perrau yeah but that’s what gives Dance Moms views the fighting
Ikr
If only the producers would air more rehearsal time instead of the moms fighting over a fruit basket
I agree with Kisha. They should have eaten the fruit.
It shows that Abbie gives them critiques to be a better dancer and isn't actually as mean as they portray her to be
@@littleghostie I agree they make us think that she's a monster but she really isnt
Sadly drama gets more views than rehearsal time
Then it wouldn't be a reality show it would just be a dance show which no one would watch
Abby is actually really good teacher but they just show the parts were she is fighting with moms or yelling at kids to correct them
Yes! I agree! It is a great teaching technique that she uses but the producers choose to only show the drama and Abby's rudest moments. If you were able to see the true story, the reason she would be yelling would be understanding. Thank you for pointing this out.
So true!!!They only put the drama in so it’s more interesting for the audience
She can be toxic at times, not that many of the original cast members even want communicate with her. So that is very telling and there is definitely animosity between former dancers, mothers, and even other choreographers who have worked with her.

rehearsals don’t really seem that bad unless you do something bad with your foot
Yeah I think a *clothing hanger* has a degree to do that
Dancein
I mean, besides all the cursing, she is a normal teacher-
I love watching the actual rehearsals and how they choreography to the child’s abilities 💗😀

It is an actual rehearsal
i love how she simply says "im yelling at you" lmao
HAHA

Everyone at aldc would of improved loads more if dance moms never happened
i agree that this season isn’t very bad, but all the other seasons were child abuse on tv. she was a child abused she mentally abused them. but she has learned so that’s why this time she’s easier on the kids
Pansy!? What are you doing here?
this is better than the moms drama 100%
Agreeddd!
I could literally watch abby choreograph dances like this from start to finish all day
I love it how they do the whole rehearsal and we dont see abby shout I used to hate abby but she isnt that bad luv u abby
Am I the only one that thinks that Abby has too much fun in her wheelchair 😂
I really appreciate these extended scenes and rehearsals

@@Lifetime yea cause u totallyyy don't make fake drama, and heavily edit the show, AT ALL 😂
I love how she was talking about some iconic ALDC dances and she named Lizzy Borden and Helen Keller which we’re both of Maddie’s solos.
Sienna Aburto when did she said that
Amy_ Castro in the confession
yes! This is my favorite thing! I love seeing the rehearsal behind the scenes
Me too!
Me too
Personally Hannah is my favorite. There has been no one like her, she is quiet and calm. I have loved her since the beginning ❤️
She is my favorite from this group but Nia is my favorite OG
@@weirdforlife_9865 Very true! Both Nia and Holly were very classy and Nia was so under appreciated.
Lol, they way how Hannah and Presley ran away from Abby 😂
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I know. It was funny. From Hannah's run, you can tell she was running as a joke.
Dancer 101 when?
Dancer 101 me too 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

love your work in Barney and Friends
Thank you so much. If you want to listen to me all day, heres the song for 10 hours:
i love abby's teaching a lot, it's refreshing to see this instead of drama
It’s so funny when Gianna try’s to make a rude comment to be mean but you can’t take her seriously
Yes I am glad that Hannah and Presley are going head to head together and their doing solo’s with their teachers ms. Abby and ms. Gianna.
😂😂😂😊😊😇😇

Ale T.V. Pressley she looked so pretty during her solo
The likes are always more than the comments anyway🤦🏾

I think Ashely and Stacy are the most toxic moms, they are smart they know how to be on Abby’s side but also know how to put other moms and kids down

Who else wonders if Abby feels slightly bad after screamin at a dancer?
She gets pressured into it and paid
Thank y'all 4 the info!😊

I love watching Abby teach!
Ok but can we talk about HANNAHS EVOLUTION TO HER CONFIDENCE YESSSSS GO QUEEN YESSSS
“Scary like Ann” I love Abby. She’s so shady 😂
I’m shocked that Hannah didn’t at least become second next to Lilly (I think Lilly 100% deserved 1st because it’s my favourite solo of hers)
Wth in all of the behind the scenes abby is so calm and nice it just shows that the producers rlly live for dramaa
we need more of this content-
I feel like this is the nicest I’ve ever seen Abby and it makes me happy to see it
Maybe Joanne is rude but at least she only minds her own business most of the time and stands to Abby for her daughter, while Ashely and Stacy I think they are the fakest moms and most annoying they always like to put others down and think that they are above everybody else. They such a toxic women
I really like this kind of content (where it shows Abby teaching the dances) way more than all the drama bits. It's actually pretty interesting and genuine and it's a pretty nice break between all the nonsense of the adults fighting lol
I love this video how Abby is so chill and nice and I wish the producers showed more of this nice side of Abby instead of all of the drama.
It's obvious that all of Abby's struggles she went through between season 7 and 8 really changed her outlook as a teacher. Just these clips alone, to me, prove that she is finally able to put trust in her dancer's ability (whether or not this is solely because she can't teach the same way anymore)
I love the atmosphere of abby planning at the start because its so chill compared to what they mostly show.
Presley is such a amazing dancer and I love how calm and proud she is teaching
Isn't it funny how it's called dance MOMS but they always say " it's about the kids not the moms" 😅
When abby went 👺😳 I felt that
Me in my head: I can do all of this
Me trying it: *landing on my head*
I’m so glad we get to see them learning it!
Gianna getting excited that pressley did the same kip up as briar Nolet was so cute🥰 we love dancers inspiring other dancers and choreographers
she's the best teacher with giving the best critism
This is actually really hard stuff these girls are doing. Kudos to them
Finally not seeing moms being crazy and finally seeing what it’s like to learn a dance
Abby's eyes are beautiful honestly when she said use your eyes for the mask my eyes when straight to hers and I saw how beautiful they were
""Oohh that's what briar does"
Minute?
Does she mean briar nolet?
Anyone notice how at around 5:47 Gianna quietly says “That’s what Briar does” about the trick, talking about Briar Nolet
When she said axel I thought it was figure skating
Sophia Chaudhri lol sameeee
6:56 Abby, bring maddie again cus you just HAD to mention something about her (her solos) 😂😂😂😂💕x
Abby is so nice
The producers think that people won’t watch if there is no drama but I really just love dance and Abby being nice to them
This was a really nice thing that Abby did to let Pressley know she wasn't trying to be rude. "Okay, what you did wrong there, I'm just coaching you your alignment went over here instead of that went straight"
I love that Abby was so calm
Wow this season is just wow 😮 ✨✨
It’s so calm and no screaming Abby
Contractually they cannot mention any of the previous girls or moms. Jojo being an exception.
abby was so awesome with Presley. it was so cool how Presley got to kind of decide the turns she would do.
The calmest I ever saw Abby
I have no idea why but this vid of no screaming and just dancing and rehires always is satisfying i ready don’t know why lol
I like these rehearsal videos it really shows the raw talent and athleticism of these kids
Hear Gia mention Briar Nolet at 5:48 🤓
these rehearsals prove that dance moms is STILL a dance studio that competes and they do practice and it’s not just a drama show
Abby was being really nice to presslly
I like this abbyshes so funny and just clam and playing and teaching the girls. If only they showed more of her nice side
Who here hates Ashley’s rudeness
This just shows how good a teacher Abby is
Abby is actually a good teacher. If producers show this more it wouldn't be so "problematic" it could be calmer.
I love how Abby is more patient when teaching the girls and brady.
RaeBantuganVlogs TikTok finally he’s not a joke to anyone anymore 😂😂😂
Pressely and Hanna. Great job girls. 👏👋🙌😍😍😍
I just realized that Presley’s back flexibility is insane
Abby seems so nice teaching them I thinks she loves her job and just gets frustrated easily
This is rare footage of Abby being nice
I love this! Thank you so much for posting more rehearsals!
Abby can actually be a really good person and I know she is a good person because she just wants these kids to do the steps correctly and she wants to make them stars and it’s the best for them and if it’s their dream then Abbys just basically making these kids do what they want to do which is becoming stars in dance I’m also a ballerina and I started ballet when I was five years old and now I am 11 years old and next I’m in grade 3 ballet and next year I’m going to grade 5 ballet because I’m skipping grade 4 because I have a great technique so my teacher is just really doing the best for me and now I’m even able to skip a grade and become a professional ballerina so anything that teachers do is just for the best of you just exactly like what parents do
I like how abby lets them do whatever they are best at
she seems so nice in this!!
This is the stuff I much rather watch over the drama that the moms bring along
I love seeing these kind of videos, Abby choreographing and seeing the kids do their best things. I love it so much
I wish in the episodes it would be more about dance and less drama
We love seeing what the ALDC can do on the stage too! Check out the playlist for more Season 8 dances here - bit.ly/2KXq9OP
I love how they show the full rehearsal
Hannah doesn't emote enough. She was supposed to be psycho. I like Hannah though.
We have the same first name and surname just spelt differently😂😂
@@Khadi0206 Eyyyy. As salaam alaikum.
i like how she gave her a choice on what to do other than telling her exactly what to do
