fun fact, this was actually nia’s first winning solo but they changed the name of it and the music on Dance Moms. nia performed this at the DEA nationals and placed 3rd with this! it’s so sad that the producers would cut out the best bits of the dance and not air her win. this solo is actually more advanced than they showed it to be
@@madisonjay8008this is true , but they didn’t have to change the moves though 🙁 many people don’t know she won a title with this dance and that she was much more advanced than she was made out to be
this isn't just true of Nia, but I love it when a dancer truly enjoys the dance they're performing. they light up the stage, in a way that is just not possible when they don't dig a song. I've seen several dancers dance songs very well, great technique hit all their tricks everything, but you could tell they weren't truly enjoying themselves, they were doing what they had to do.
shes such a performer and a star! sure she doesnt have perfect technique but she absolutely sold the piece and i cant stop smiling when watching her dance. absolutely love her and wish she was given more solos
Jonathan M. That was long before this dance, she just lost her flexibility as she got older which is very common and her technique was always so once she lost her flexibility she wasn't close to as good as she used to be.
She is actually such a good acrobat like looking at this now I never knew nia could do loads of these tricks dance moms doesn’t include these bits about some of the girls and Nia is an amazing dancer and performer
Why can't Abby just give her good solo's anymore? She's always giving them to the other members or quests. I mean, Nia has been there the longest and the fact that she's driving her and Holly away just like Christi and Chloe is TERRIBLE!
Veronette Legeon Because when she does give Nia a solo Holly's mom complains about the dance. It can't make teaching it very fun. And Nia isn't capable of the more complex solos that some of the other dancers can do. Plus the producers pick who gets the solos now.
Veronette Legeon Yeah it depends on what plot they want for the episode. If they want to build a storyline around Maddie vs Kalani then Abby has to give them the solos.
Veronette Legeon Actually they get solos we don't see all the time. They don't show them for drama but we see them when they do unaired solos and group dances are someone uploads them from their camera or cell phone.
I hate when people on the show make it look like Maddie is the only one that "performs" for the judges. If you clearly watch Nia, Chloe and Paige, it is very obvious that they are performing and giving personalities to their numbers. Maddie isn't the only that "knows" how to perform.
Maddie was the most musical in her performance, regardless of whether it was an upbeat number or something more reflective. It's one thing to do the facial expressions but another to perform with the detail of the music down to your fingertips. Plus she had the technical side relatively down. Not that the other kids are bad but Maddie does what some adults can't do
Abby gives her lots of chances it is just she needs to impropve a little more i bet if you give her a year of improving it will look like abby is setting her up to win.
That wouldn't go over well with Holly. None of the ethnic solos she gives Nia have really Holly always has something to say about them. Even if Nia gets 1st with them.
So proud of you Nia u go girl we miss u and Holly here in pittsburgh and I haven't seen ur gram for a while at church! !! Anyways I pray u all are doing well! !! Go get em in LA!
How did they kill this spirit? The confidence, strength?
with abby
fun fact, this was actually nia’s first winning solo but they changed the name of it and the music on Dance Moms. nia performed this at the DEA nationals and placed 3rd with this! it’s so sad that the producers would cut out the best bits of the dance and not air her win. this solo is actually more advanced than they showed it to be
to be fair with the name and music, they had to use copyright free music and shakira music is definitely copyrighted
@@madisonjay8008this is true , but they didn’t have to change the moves though 🙁 many people don’t know she won a title with this dance and that she was much more advanced than she was made out to be
Yeah they changed the song for like Copyright or something
Nia was WAYYY better at acro than she was ever given credit for
Nia wasn't ever given credit or shown off to her full potential
wdym?? she is literally doing a chin stand in 80% of her solos...
Ксения Рен that’s not just acro like she barely did any flexible stuff
@@Drew-Ui yeah because she lost her flexibility... but she was highly known for her acro in the early seasons doing duets with Mackenzie
@@КсенияРен-у6щ obviously she lost her flexibility. the shows been over for her and she hasnt done acro since maybe 2017
Omg I didn't know Nia was that flexible! She's amazing and Abby belittles her like she's nothing!! #teamnia
Haley Smith
Actually it's just really the show
@@laurenreyes1278 and Abby and Nia are more close then her and Maddie
She won this competiton, Paige got 2nd Chloe got 3rd And Mackenzie got 4th
M T she is
@@MR-ro6nf she said was
She just KILLED IT! This is the living proof that the show is edited in a way that it will make all of them look bad accept Maddie.
Emilly Zalayet because she’s the favorite and they are not made at to look bad that’s bs
The show made maddie look like a brat, they have to make every girl look kind of bad or really bad.
Maddie was better off the show aswell look at some of her solos from off the show the show made all of them seem worse then they actually we're
hanianh ❤️
They literally made Maddie look like a brat….
SOO cute! love her energy she gets so much height on her leaps & jumps! but wow big improvement since then!
Nia is amazing. This was right after she had recovered from RND! She rocked this dance. You killed it! Her stamina is amazing lol
Lol yeah cool videos and more importantly in you
RND? Is that something to do with Nia when she was in a wheel chair?
@@eddiethehead4791 yep she couldn't walk
@@hopitality3145 awww. This is extraordinary to do a dance with that energy after not being able to walk!
@@eddiethehead4791 i know it's so sad!
The producers always seemed to make Nia look mediocre when she's really soooooo good.
She was so adorable
She is so good plus I love this song by Shakira
this isn't just true of Nia, but I love it when a dancer truly enjoys the dance they're performing. they light up the stage, in a way that is just not possible when they don't dig a song. I've seen several dancers dance songs very well, great technique hit all their tricks everything, but you could tell they weren't truly enjoying themselves, they were doing what they had to do.
Huh
yes absolutely right, I could see how happy she was from the moment she came out
Legs were straight and everything. She is doing so good
shes such a performer and a star! sure she doesnt have perfect technique but she absolutely sold the piece and i cant stop smiling when watching her dance. absolutely love her and wish she was given more solos
this makes me so happy because you can tell how much she loves it the moment you see her
Wow this is so good dance moms did not do Nia justice, the producers were just obsessed with Maddie
She's so tiny....you forget how fast kids grow up!
Nia u were amazing hope u won 1st u did that solo like u own that stage love it so professional nia
she did win 1st
she didn't place 😂🖒
She got 1st and paige got 2nd
Sakura ALDC what solo did paige have
Macaroonlife 101 Boys, boys, boys is the solo
I wasn't even watching for 20 seconds yet, and I already thought: "This is so catchy!!!"
Way to go, Nia!! You rock =D!!
Rebecca Segal that's impossible, the actual song/dance doesn't start until 20 seconds into the video
PsychicKitties Art she means the first 20 seconds of the dance
i miss her acro solos sm! abby stopped them at season 4 but she shouldn't of
Wow! Nia is so talented!
for everyone in the comments that say that the show doesnt show how good she was, nia had to go in a wheelchair and relearn everything after that.
+Tierra Lester it was in her younger years but i dont think it was when the show was airing
+CrumpetSims abby already knew this a long time ago but they need a time on the show to talk about her
Jonathan M. That was long before this dance, she just lost her flexibility as she got older which is very common and her technique was always so once she lost her flexibility she wasn't close to as good as she used to be.
Probaly my fav Nia solo ever...or at least one of them
Aww fetus Nia😍💕 she's come so far! I love you Nia!!!!
Warehouse operative pank

I can’t believe that’s Nia she’s so much taller and older. She grew up so fast and improved so much.
I love Niall and holly there the most sweetest people on earth
NIA >>>
If Abby gave nia half the attention she gave Maddie or Chloe nia would’ve gotten so far in dance
She's so good
Maddie is sooo happy for her! Go Nia!
