The whole show is based on a group of 5-10 girls who compete at dance competitions every week. With new dances every week, watchers eagerly await to see what kind of style of dance Abby Lee’s choreography will express. Each dance seems to tell a story, whether it’s through tricky and original choreography or heartfelt emotion. Their technique is top-notch, and I don’t think …show more content…
