A bunch of questions. I've only seen the show once or twice, and I'm watching a marathon right now. So, tell me:
- Is Abby's dance studio actually any good?
- Why does Abby always sound like she has major post nasal drip?
- Was she ever a dancer?
- These moms...ugh. Most of them seem like they have nothing better to do, but Holly - she's a principal and seemingly well-educated and should be pretty busy. WTF is she doing?!
- How do these kids/families afford to miss so much school and fly all over the country all the time?

julez I can answer this one! Her dancers are all quite flexible and strong, but their technique is pretty sloppy (finishing lines and extensions, etc are atrocious at times). So I'd say, kinda sorta? Each of them would do better with an instructor who would focus on polishing and refining their technique.
The girls on the show are not her best dancers. They were casted based on the moms. The moms and their craziness is what makes for reality TV.
I have heard that Abby has had quite a few students go onto professional dance work. She has contacts and that helps her best students get some prime auditions.
