DANCE MOMS EPISODE 1 (PART 1) **reaction** l Abby Lee Miller

[@therealabbyleemiller]

Thank you for watching! Please don't forget to like, subscribe and turn on those post notifications! I have some big projects I can't wait to share w you all. In my life I have learned many lessons and I'm so thankful for the Dance Moms era; a show that will live forever. I may have earned many trophies before the show, but the greatest gift is sharing my students and their talents with all of you. Trust me when I say, this is just the beginning and my next chapter in life is a big one. Keep watching my weekly videos here and I'll see you on your televisions soon enough.

[@DreamDeva]

Sharing your life brought my girls and I back close after moving separate from their Father. We started season one. All the renovation studio shows , the snippets. ...I wrote a letter to you and felt stupid mailing it. Please stop trying to be like "oh they made me do xyz" I feel you are the type to not let anyone make you do anything. Your big personality and caring heart is why we are fans. I also know your perseverance with (clink clink), cancer, and a come back honestly your story . Shows. While I sank in deeper into depression. Your shows and you, gave me some joy when I needed it. Took me 3 months to get through Dance Mom's series. Thank you again for sharing

Hearing Abby's perspective now really drives home that the show's stressful format ruined her relationships with all the girls. The stress of being on camera, learning new routines every week, trying to do school, and making time for everything else was too much to handle...and that made the moms lose it...which ultimately led to Abby losing it (and saying things she shouldn't).

I think Abby is the true definition of tough love. You can see her dedication to these girls and how she wants them to be successful more than anything. She doesn’t sugarcoat the truth, and tells them how it is. And when it comes to the performance industry, there’s no other way to teach young people discipline and technique than using tough love. One of the entire methods of dance is discipline, control and professionalism. Abby taught that entirely and I feel like the kids who couldn’t handle it and the parents who were offended that their kids were crying weren’t cut out of professional dance material like they claimed. I hope you continue to react to the episodes, as I would love to see more of how you felt about the show. Much love!💕

They believed in you and didn't let you slide because something was hard. I love you. And the show. But it's time for the show to be about YOU. It's you that people are fascinated by. Your work ethic, your charm, your elegance, your fire. And your knowledge. I'm so glad you can look back on these shows and be so fair about everything. Your fairness - that too, is a huge draw.

Dance moms was really my show. It’s the only show I’ve rewatched. I found dance moms at a friends house and after that I was in love. At that time I think season 4 was out. This show really made me want to dance. Although I couldn’t dance like I wanted to (ballet, contemporary…) because I didn’t have those opportunities, I did try step in 5th grade, I danced in 8th grade which was mostly hip hop and high school as well I did Afro dance cause that was the closest I could be to dance and I loved it all and I was pretty good at it too. I do wish I could’ve done more dance cause I love it but life didn’t pull me in that direction. (I’m Muslim so my parents didn’t really like me doing it so I stepped back from it) If I ever have kids and they want to do dance, I’ll 100% let them. I really want to know more behind the scenes stuff and you should really make this a series. And maybe do AUDC too.

Same, my dad didn't want me to because I'm Muslim also it is kind of an expensive hobby, but I always wanted to learn dance. I thought ballet was the most beautiful thing. If I have a kid that wants to do it, I would be so happy. I even still kind of want to learn just for fun.

@@emaan7023 Same. I think if I was given a chance to learn dance without it interfering with school and religion, I would 100% do it.

Loved this video Abby! It was entertaining to watch and gave some insight on the show itself, I never knew that it really was not the “first episode filmed”. Keep up the great work

[@melinat_a]

please tell us more this is actually really interesting and it teaches so much more about the dance world than the show could ever do

[@KatieandHelena]

I love how she is so open about how it was showing it in a different way than it actually was

[@meganmary92]

Have you ever seen Olympic gold medalist get trained? Their coaches do the same thing. Except they were editing like a week into 30 min’s so the heavy editing didn’t show the warm and fuzzy stuff it compiled the breakdowns and the intense coaching. ❤ the reactions Abbey! So glad I found your channel.

Omg yes yes yes! More please and thank you Miss Abby!! I miss watching you on tv so much! You look beautiful 💛 hope you are well and can't wait for a part 2!

I would absolutely love to see more! I am from Australia and a big fan of Abby and the show! 😊❤️

[@jackihayden6642]

Loved this!! Its refreshing hearing you talk about your craft with passion, the kids that were on the show so respectfully. The line about how the concept of the new routine every week breaking your relationships with the girls and mums was so open and honest.

[@alyssagraham4123]

This is the most interesting thing, I love hearing Abby’s point of view on everything

[@DanielleMarie2010]

the fact that my mom was a nurse for abby in 2013 lol

[@meganmichaels9510]

Was abby nice?

[@lostcontrol1981]

Love hearing the background of the show!! Looking forward to more! ❤️❤️❤️

[@dork3132]

Ok, yea there were corrections. But there were so many moments with adults including Abby. Where the yelling had nothing to do with corrections, and was incredibly harmful on the girls.

[@annalupton9284]

Seriously. MackZBoss really goes into detail about a lot of the horrible things she did.

dear god i love abby. i had contoversial thoughts about her teaching but im so happy she told us the truth of the show. despite some of the lies of the show, i still love it so much.

[@jackiedoyle1145]

I was born in Pittsburgh and knew who Abby Lee Miller was. She really does tell the truth. I would’ve loved to be taught by her

[@sergemendoza4259]

Y’all can say what you want about Abby but when I was little and I heard “second is the first to lose” that line got stuck in my head that I always aim to be the best that I can be! I’ll forever be thankful for that quote because it has gotten me so far!

[@HeyScarlettTV]

Dance Moms was my childhood, I love the show, it was the best Dance Show that I ever saw ❤️💃🏼

[@delaney8949]

[@cbm7173]

Yes Abby! Bring us more!! No amount is ever too much when it comes to Dance Moms! The more, the better in my opinion! Sending lots of love your way from Ontario Canada!💜💜💜

Thanks for being transparent and truthful in this video

[@otaku11bts23]

You explained a lot, and I understand the show so much better now. Makes sense
