EXACTLY. and like when the seniors were laying on stage our team would massage their heads bc we knew how hard they work. our team loves our seniors, and at our recitals we literally form a puddle of tears on the floor when the curtains close. i remember i couldn’t stop crying bc one of the seniors graduated. okay sorry for wasting ur time.
You should’ve done the one with all the props. One time at a comp a girl had so many props and ended up forgetting her dance within the first 15 seconds
I always feel bad for the dads. They can't do anything to help their child when the kids in the dressing room. My dad always wanted to help me get ready but he was never allowed in so he just stood outside the door awkwardly and every time a mum came out he'd ask if I was ok by myself.
"The one that's injured" I felt that on a personal level since I mostly 99.99% all the time right before a competition I injury myself and my dance teachers are always just like really again.
i’m a competition dancer too, i remember a few years ago i had a girl on my team who’s grandma was the ultimate queen. miss girl made sure she had your favorite gatorade, candy, chips, like she had everything it was iconic
Ikr they are so annoying, there was one studio that kept side eying us. We were dancing at a basketball court and there was some girl taking up the whole dressing room like the whole thing practicing her leg hold turns, layouts, tucks, all of that
(M not trying to brag I jus kinda feel proud of myself for once) THIS WEEKEND MY TEAM ONE FIRST IN OUR DIVISION WITH ALL OUR ROUTINES AND 2nd OVERALL AND ITS OUR FIRST YEAR GOING TO COMPETITION🥺💜💜💜💜 also we got back around 3 am it felt so early lol
I remember I had a competition where I had to change half way through the dance like a full strip down and I had to SPRINT back to our dressing room because the stage had took my costume which was back stage and hand taken my second costume back to the dressing room then I had to SPRINT back in my pointe shoes and a sorta long dress thing to the stage and I was barely on time big dancer vibes lol
i have competition this weekend and i am so excited i haven’t competed in so long and last time i had like barely any dances and now i have like 8 dances so i am so excited and yea i love your videos
for the first dance, my studio requires us to be there at 6:30, literally an hour before doors open😳 most of the time i don’t even compete till 6:00 pm!
this- *this* this is *perfect* the discovery of this channel is good karma for all the stressful essays I had to write lol 🤠✌ so mad at myself that I missed the premiere- UK time difference really coming in strong 🇬🇧👍
i feel so incredibly called out by the leotard, quick change, "good luck!" and "showed up 3 hours early" ones that i wouldn't be surprised if you were stalking me
i've never been to a competition where the announcer is not crazy energetic😂😂 8:17 i went to compeition in dallas a few weeks ago and this was the alumni talking to me before my solo hahaha
One time (I was four) I went into the wrong dressing room and my mom had to come get me (then I started crying cause I thought I was in trouble)😂. Fun times
OMG THE SENIOR AWARD ONE IS SO FREAKING TRUE, like it’s never stop fighting so see who gets the freaking award, but yet this is gonna be me in like two weeks, but like you can’t forget the numbers will all the props
I’m always freaking out before my solo. I once cried and my eyeliner went crazy and I had to go on in 2 numbers and my mom whipped out a makeup wipe and eyeliner and rushed it 💀
as a dancer who turned competitive after 9 years of training (so I was well a senior to the bunch of children when I started competitions) I can attest to being completely drained by the time awards come around, everything happens so late and lasts for ages 😭
So, I dance, but not competitively, *however,* I did do competitive cheer, and you absolutely nailed the peppy announcer, the one doing tiktoks the whole time, that one crazy group during awards, that one group that takes up THE ENTIRE HECKIN HALLWAY, the poor seniors during awards, and basically all of them lmao.
OMG SAME AND THE BOY ISNT EVEN GOOD AND THEY GAVE HIM EXTRA POINTS AT AN AUDITION AND THEY GIVE HIM SPECIAL ATTENTION AND PUT ME IN ALL OF THE LOWER CLASSES WHEN I WORKED MY BOOTAY OFF FOR 8 YEARSS (and a lot of people left bc of it) TEEHEE ok yea i had a lot to say 😂😂
@@genevieveross5007 oh no. Well as long as she tried her best. I forgot half of my routine and just stood there for a few secs lol. Then I did an old dance to finish.
I had a dance recital and I had a hip hop costume on that had a jacket, shoes, tank top, and sweat pants. I had ballet soon after, 2 dances to be exact so me and my friends had our ballet costumes on underneath our hip hop. It was really hot that day and we we’re sweating.
I'm the "internally freaking out but complimenting and comforting everyone else because I'm the 2nd oldest so I literally feel like their mother" (they only allow people to be in my comp tap group til end of 8th grade so rn I am 2nd oldest cause my friend is in eighth grade and I'm in 7th)
Ok the injured one is just accurate. My friend broke her foot in 4 different places and only found out weeks before competition and it had been broke for a while but like first night of comp and they had to take her to the ER because her foot turned blue. Long story short she was fine and was in a boot all competition and the we did our dance and she broke another bone it her foot.
Omg I had a time where I got off stage for ballet , and the second I got in the wings I was pulling my bun out putting it in a high pony and trying to change from pink tights to black tights while walking 😂😂
5:41 at the most recent Competition I went to, there was a dude in charge of the right side of the wings, and let me tell you, he was singing ALL the songs, he even FREAKING KNEW SOME CHOREO FROM WHEN PEOPLE WERE REHEARSING, and he’d hug us when we got offstage. I wanna be his friend.
i’m not a runner... until i have a quick change. then i’m an olympic sprinter.
yup
exactly
Bahaha so true
Yea one time there was literally like 3 dances in between and like we had to to put our hair in a bun and change our eyeshadow color like...
@@crazykidstar6047 yes the hair changes are the worst. especially if you already have a bunch of hair spray and then your styling crunchy hair...
The announcer is so true “hiiiiGGGHHHHH gold”
EXACTLY. and like when the seniors were laying on stage our team would massage their heads bc we knew how hard they work. our team loves our seniors, and at our recitals we literally form a puddle of tears on the floor when the curtains close. i remember i couldn’t stop crying bc one of the seniors graduated. okay sorry for wasting ur time.
At one I went to it was "ULLLLLLLLLLTIMATE VICTORY!!!"
Yeah like why are they so exited about it haha
“p-p-platinum!”
ahh omg no when she was doing the awards she literally said all dances that i hav had ☠️
You should’ve done the one with all the props. One time at a comp a girl had so many props and ended up forgetting her dance within the first 15 seconds
:oo TYSM FOR THE LIKES
We had a dance that was 3 minutes long, like 7 girls, and 5 props
Megga oof
Or the girl who has 20000000 props for her petite solo that is 1:57 seconds long
The backstage crew at my regular comp is literally so nice
Yo memento Mori my dude
i always feel like im in the wrong place and they always look so mad and im scared their gonna yell at me
Nice pfp🖤
Same I go to LADM where do you go??
Most of us are friends-
Or we ARE friends in class🤣
And they receive a…
ALUMINUM FOIIIIIIIIIIIIILLLLLLLLLLLLL
BAHAHAHA
Oml I’m a huge fan of u
Hi princess royal 😁
What about the 18 group dances that do “love shack” or “to build a home”
or "hit the road jack"
Yes
Omg yes 😂🤣😂
I DID TO BUILD A HOME AND I HATED IT HELP
dhdhdhchcjcj my theatre brain just thought of bridges for to build a home (unless it is bridges of madison county)
the awards speaker one got me!! 😂I’m a competition dancer too and that’s literally them all weekend!!!
hhhiiiiiIIIIIGGGHHH GOOOLLLllllddd
Same I dance too
a PLaTiNuMmmmMmMMM
Hi SSISTER arE YoU rEAdy For AWarD
SaPppHIire
Sneaking behind the team that’s taking up the whole hallway is so relatable 😂
Lol true after you get hit in the face cause they are doing an
Team. Artwheel
Cartwheel
Alternative title for the first one- the one that takes their cat to a competition
“going home with a PLATINUM” the accuracy i-
as soon as you said “the backstage crew” all the great memories came flooding back😭
same I was a stagehand for 3 years and I remember all the dance comps I had worked so many memories
to the people who bring the good snacks to all the comps have my heart
I always feel bad for the dads. They can't do anything to help their child when the kids in the dressing room. My dad always wanted to help me get ready but he was never allowed in so he just stood outside the door awkwardly and every time a mum came out he'd ask if I was ok by myself.
yeah, my dad always did my hair so we’d have to stand in the halls and do it or go to the bathroom if it was unisex
@@queenv22 aww, thats so precious
Yea i needed help vos my mom was gome and my dad was the onily perent there
he wasn't aloud in so i had to ask other moms for help with stuff
my dad was only the prop dad
my dad NEVER came to any of mine (sorry if this sounds like trauma dumping)
“Aluminum foil” wow that’s...
It’s the supreme award category
the backstage crew is so accurate 😭😭 it’s always that outfit too!!!
I was literally like waiting for the “injured”ones! 🤣
"The one that's injured" I felt that on a personal level since I mostly 99.99% all the time right before a competition I injury myself and my dance teachers are always just like really again.
i’m a competition dancer too, i remember a few years ago i had a girl on my team who’s grandma was the ultimate queen. miss girl made sure she had your favorite gatorade, candy, chips, like she had everything it was iconic
If I was a dancer I know I would want to be the one passed out on the floor but would actually be the hella nervous one lol
the musical theater productions take literally 10 minutes and the backstage people are always lit😂
Title that needs to be heard “the loud mom going, “yesss get ittt, woooooo!” Every five seconds while her daughter is dancing” lol
the way they say "plAtinUm" LMAO
the way out announcer says it is “ppppppppppppplatinum”🤣
ppplaaatinuuuummmmm!!
the way THAT mom was dressed was so accurate omg😭💀
As a comp crew member I feel called out in the most hilarious way 😂 that really is us the whole time lol
I would hate those people practicing in the hallway like people need to get on stage
Agree. I hate those people too.
I agree they’ll eat running there dance in the middle of the hallway and a bunch of girls who had a quick change will run into them like can they move
ikr, especially when the teacher was out there nitpicking them too so it was even slower
I got kicked in the stomach once bc of a girl practacing on the hallway
Ikr they are so annoying, there was one studio that kept side eying us. We were dancing at a basketball court and there was some girl taking up the whole dressing room like the whole thing practicing her leg hold turns, layouts, tucks, all of that
Related to the “no you go up” “I’m not going up” we all just passed out loll
THE MOVING THE HAIR AS THE STUDIO OWNER WAS SO ACCURATE
shoutout to the people that chatted in the premiere :))
THE BAND APP
WOAH. LIKE HOLY COW THIS IS MAGIC I SWEAR
“Aluminum foil” I am dyingggg 😭
Lol one time at a dance comp there was an announcer who would always say AH-MAH-ZING. honestly though I love MT
The alumni...you didn’t have to call me out like that 😂😂
(M not trying to brag I jus kinda feel proud of myself for once)
THIS WEEKEND MY TEAM ONE FIRST IN OUR DIVISION WITH ALL OUR ROUTINES AND 2nd OVERALL AND ITS OUR FIRST YEAR GOING TO COMPETITION🥺💜💜💜💜 also we got back around 3 am it felt so early lol
(I know this was 4 months ago, but) YOOO GOOD JOB! IM SO PROUD OF YOU FOR WINNING THATS SO BIG!!!
I KNOW THIS WAS 7 MONTHS AGO BUT AMAZING JOB! YOU SHOULD BE SO PROUD OF YOURSELF!!
I KNOW THIS WAS 10 MONTHS AGO BUT CONGRATS BOO!!!
I know this was 11 months ago but congratulations
I know this was a year ago but congrats 😌
the alumni crying while hugging a nine year old after her solo (lyrical or contemporary) and saying how proud they are and how much she’s grown
The seniors at midnight killed meeeee😂😂😂😂
The peppy awards announcer was SPOT ON
The way she said
“Can you say on band for everyone to be here early for production that would be great “ the band is the from of communication😂❤
I remember I had a competition where I had to change half way through the dance like a full strip down and I had to SPRINT back to our dressing room because the stage had took my costume which was back stage and hand taken my second costume back to the dressing room then I had to SPRINT back in my pointe shoes and a sorta long dress thing to the stage and I was barely on time big dancer vibes lol
Yes the award speaker!! Every time they say high gold just gets me - number 265 imagine revives a HiGh GoLd
i have competition this weekend and i am so excited i haven’t competed in so long and last time i had like barely any dances and now i have like 8 dances so i am so excited and yea i love your videos
yay!! good luck!!
I had two comps this past month
for the first dance, my studio requires us to be there at 6:30, literally an hour before doors open😳 most of the time i don’t even compete till 6:00 pm!
It’s the having 5 solos for me!!!! 😂😂😂😂
I am like a person who always is doing acro backstage lol
Coming from a dancer this is so flipping accurate 😂😂😂😂
this- *this*
this is *perfect*
the discovery of this channel is good karma for all the stressful essays I had to write lol 🤠✌
so mad at myself that I missed the premiere- UK time difference really coming in strong 🇬🇧👍
the "hey >:)" at the beginning is immaculate
The "higgggh gold" always hits different.
i feel so incredibly called out by the leotard, quick change, "good luck!" and "showed up 3 hours early" ones that i wouldn't be surprised if you were stalking me
All of those are so accurate especially the announcer
I MISSED THESE SO MUCH😭😭😭
If you make another one there should be “the one who keeps touching up their makeup”
My fav is the seniors at awards because it’s so accurate
i've never been to a competition where the announcer is not crazy energetic😂😂 8:17 i went to compeition in dallas a few weeks ago and this was the alumni talking to me before my solo hahaha
THESE ARE SO INSANELY ACCURATE I WAS LAUGHING THE WHOLE VID
2:45 LMAO ONE IF THE SENIORS FROM MY STUDIO HAD A SOLO TO A DERMOT KENNEDY SOMG AT COMP SUNDAY IM CRYING
omg yass i love this what about the sassy jazzer mini! lol
One time (I was four) I went into the wrong dressing room and my mom had to come get me (then I started crying cause I thought I was in trouble)😂. Fun times
The dance mom is on point XD
OMG THE SENIOR AWARD ONE IS SO FREAKING TRUE, like it’s never stop fighting so see who gets the freaking award, but yet this is gonna be me in like two weeks, but like you can’t forget the numbers will all the props
I’m always freaking out before my solo. I once cried and my eyeliner went crazy and I had to go on in 2 numbers and my mom whipped out a makeup wipe and eyeliner and rushed it 💀
as a dancer who turned competitive after 9 years of training (so I was well a senior to the bunch of children when I started competitions) I can attest to being completely drained by the time awards come around, everything happens so late and lasts for ages 😭
Carissa randomly giving a awards speaker audition 😂
So, I dance, but not competitively, *however,* I did do competitive cheer, and you absolutely nailed the peppy announcer, the one doing tiktoks the whole time, that one crazy group during awards, that one group that takes up THE ENTIRE HECKIN HALLWAY, the poor seniors during awards, and basically all of them lmao.
Don’t try to replicate the “OUTSTANDING DANCER” because you are already the outstanding dancer. (QUEEN) 💗
Okay but the seniors at awards was so true, once I started learning Russian on Duolingo during awards because it was taking too long haha
CARISSA NEEDS TO HIT 10K! this video is extremely accurate btw 🤪💖💖
I’m in indoor Drumline on the visual ensemble (we dance), but I can relate to a lot of these for when we have competition days. 😅 lol
The aluminum foil part was so accurate
Yesssss! I've been waiting for this :D
My studio has a boy and he is literally the star of the recital and the competition dances 😢
OMG SAME AND THE BOY ISNT EVEN GOOD AND THEY GAVE HIM EXTRA POINTS AT AN AUDITION AND THEY GIVE HIM SPECIAL ATTENTION AND PUT ME IN ALL OF THE LOWER CLASSES WHEN I WORKED MY BOOTAY OFF FOR 8 YEARSS (and a lot of people left bc of it) TEEHEE ok yea i had a lot to say 😂😂
Yesturday was my first comp of the year, and I cried backstage from stress and anxiety for my solo.
I’m guessing you did awesome
@@genevieveross5007 I got 2nd ://
@@hereiamaliveyetagain that’s good when my sister competed she didn’t get higher than 4th
@@genevieveross5007 oh no. Well as long as she tried her best. I forgot half of my routine and just stood there for a few secs lol. Then I did an old dance to finish.
@@hereiamaliveyetagain THATS AMAZING GURL
I'm an Irish dancer, so our competitions are a bit different but this is so t r u e-
I have a comp later today and i’m sadly the injured one 😂
this took me back to my comp dancing days
I had a dance recital and I had a hip hop costume on that had a jacket, shoes, tank top, and sweat pants. I had ballet soon after, 2 dances to be exact so me and my friends had our ballet costumes on underneath our hip hop. It was really hot that day and we we’re sweating.
Why is this sooo accurate
i literally have never danced a day in my life why do i relate so hard to these videos i love this
I'm literally all of these but they happen in a sequence
same
the awards announcer was SO ACCURATE
there is always SOMEONE that is injured at my studio 😭 and then we have to reblock the dances in like 1 week-
The senior is like me and my non existence friends at awards lol so accurate
Our studio is like super close with the Showbiz backstage crew, because our coach used to judge with them. So they’re literally so sweet to us haha
Showbiz crew is the sweetest!
I'm the "internally freaking out but complimenting and comforting everyone else because I'm the 2nd oldest so I literally feel like their mother" (they only allow people to be in my comp tap group til end of 8th grade so rn I am 2nd oldest cause my friend is in eighth grade and I'm in 7th)
The peppy announcer VERY accurate
The one passed out on the dressing room floor was my whole team last year
The kids going insane at awards is my studio 😂
I still love all of those crazy people though, they are like family to me.
Ok the injured one is just accurate. My friend broke her foot in 4 different places and only found out weeks before competition and it had been broke for a while but like first night of comp and they had to take her to the ER because her foot turned blue. Long story short she was fine and was in a boot all competition and the we did our dance and she broke another bone it her foot.

When you live with your dad so he's the super awkward dad T-T
i love whenever the little kids watch you backstage its so cute 😭😭
You don’t even need to replicate the perfect dancer everyone wants to be. You’re the perfect dancer:) but also why is this so relatable
hahahahaha I just found this channel, this video is so funny, I can relate as a dancer. New subscriber 😂❤️
9:50 NOT THE BAND APPPP
I LOVE YOUR VIDEOS! I'm a dancer and I can't compete currently because of Covid so I love watching your comp vlogs and other stuff :)
Early! This is my first time being early on your channel
one time the backstage crew didnt let me go to the toilet 10 mins before my ballet number and i peed my tutu😂
Watching this literally the night before my next competition, I better look out for these…
5:41 at the most recent Competition I went to, there was a dude in charge of the right side of the wings, and let me tell you, he was singing ALL the songs, he even FREAKING KNEW SOME CHOREO FROM WHEN PEOPLE WERE REHEARSING, and he’d hug us when we got offstage. I wanna be his friend.

Puttin on the ritz omg that brought back flashbacks 😭
