I wonder why that is.  If any dancers know, please chime in 🙂 .

Bad balance is typically due to an issue with weaker core strength or foot placement throwing off the centre of balance. 

Also less likely but very possible is really bad vestibular function

I'm so upset 😭 I've missed the first episodes of season 8 every single time. I assumed s8 would start today but when I came back it was on the 4th episode. Missed it again wtf

Does anyone have some sort of "guide" to when the episodes come out? This guessing game aint working for me

I know all this tea about VK and Lisa apparently in cahoots isn't supposed to be entertainment, but this is so juicy lmao and I'm over here sipping wine 8 hrs before I have to get up for work and waiting for more updates to fuel my neverending thirst for drama 🤣

Well they haven't said on the show in years that rookies on show group are only alternates. So perhaps it's changed! Either way who cares lol. They always pick and choose different girls for different things. 

I think you're right. This video is from a recent concert on July 23rd, after the SG squad was announced.

At the 5:12 mark shows Jalyn in the front row closest to the camera kneeling down. And I'm not good at distinguishing between all the blonde heads of hair, but from what I saw, it didn't look like VK was part of this group dancing??? Maybe the events of the SG episode were staged just for drama for reality TV, or nothing was actually set in stone? (lol either way I was happy to see my fave J looking cute and cheerful xD)

PS: my apologies if I messed up posting the vid. idk how to embed anything 🙃 I'm that one young'un who is eluded by all technology

Long time lurker, never made an acct until now lol. Long rant a-brewin'

I've been pretty ambivalent towards VK and the drama surrounding her (loved her bubbly personality last year, but was peeved by how disrespectful she was towards sweet Jinelle and got red flags on her behaviour behind the scenes when Kash made that comment about her not thinking before she spoke). Last year, she needed to get cut, but this year, from watching what I've seen of her, I think she is DCC material. She needs more maturity and growth, but her skills make her a good fit for the team. But not SG.

Jalyn is a favourite of mine, so the details of this rumour have me torn. On the one hand, I'm usually hesitant to believe rumours, but on the other, I'm furious because... well, Jalyn is my fave and I WANT VINDICATION lol. Even so, if Jalyn was outdanced this year (unlikely; she's a top 10 of the team and I watch the games; that much makes it clear) by a rookie, I would pick Lisa over VK any day. She's arguably the strongest of the rookie dancers I feel. Lisa hasn't gotten much screen time as of late, but she's been consistently good, consistently strong, and consistently noted as a powerhouse by Kelli and guest judges alike (reminds me of Jalyn last year in that respect; coasting by with no issues because she's great and decidedly a top pick for the team). So to me, whatever reason Jalyn isn't on SG anymore (even though she should be 😢), I don't think VK makes sense either. (Kinda weird how Lisa got no screen time during SG auditions either... considering how strong she's looked, I assumed she would be a shoo-in)

But whether VK is the reason behind Jalyn getting kicked off of SG or not, the favouritism VK has been shown is pretty substantial in this show. I can't help but wonder why Kelli doesn't see that this is going to cause tensions in the sisterhood. Not just in the team itself, but also in the relationship between VK and the girls. Idk if VK is as manipulative or deceitful as she's made out to be on this forum (I'm leaning towards no, but I do feel she might be the type to have gotten everything she's wanted on a silver platter and might behave in ways to keep that), but regardless of that, the adults in her life really aren't doing her any favours by putting her on a pedestal for DCC and shielding her from any and all critique and/or punishing anyone who doesn't cosign with that. That's the fastest way to get VK isolated from the deep friendships with other girls.

Does anyone have insider info on what the locker room environment is like or the camaraderie between the girls? Is VK generally part of the little side pictures and hangout groups? I'm not the type to follow anyone on social media, so I just wanted to know if there was any info on possible tensions in that capacity.
