mmm October 12, 2017 Share October 12, 2017 I am not sure if this have been said before but I hate Jen K, she's beyond OVERRATED , overrated doesn't even come close to describing her . I think she's average at best and her pom dancing was super spastic and her facials were INSANE.(I use to run this DCC photo blog and I was doing retirement segment the year Emma retired I had to edit all Emma's photos bec Jen was behind her facing horrible faces). She's the worst point ever IMO since i started following DCC. I think she's a teacher pet and that annoying teacher pet who asks for more homework and stitches on her friends. Honestly, I don't know who she's related to but I think any other team she wouldn't have even made it. I totally boycott DCC last year after i found out she's the point and only came back after I found out she's leaving. Good riddance !!!!

I'd love to hear your reasons why. Personally, I think she is perfect for what they ask her to do: be totally unfiltered and detached. Kelli has to manage personalities and egos, while Judy is more concerned about the dancing and has to be more critical, but still has to be supportive as a coach. If Kelli is the good cop and Judy is the bad cop, then I'd call Kitty the KGB (dating myself, I know). She can come in and say and do the things that perhaps Kelli and Judy wish they could say and do, but are prohibited from doing so by their relationship with the girls. I don't think Kitty would succeed in Kelli or even Judy's position with her methods, but they seem to work in her current role. I looooooooove Kitty, especially this season. She says what we’ve been SCREAMING on these forums all season 6 Link to comment
raindancer October 13, 2017 Share October 13, 2017 I really love Kitty so much, but it's not the "mean" I love her for. She has a genius for taking dancers to the next level, and she doesn't pander to anyone - she is hard on the girls because she knows that at the level she teaches at she's not doing anyone any favors by sending them out the door at anything less than the best they are capable of. I also have an idea that when you've been through it yourself, and seen others go through it over the years (as she has), she may feel honor-bound to armor everyone she teaches the only way she can - with honesty and skill. The kind of vestment she has in people makes it understandable to me that she'd have zero patience for anyone giving her less than the kind of total commitment she's giving them. But beyond that, I've heard so many stories about how amazing and supportive she is beyond the studio, and that she is very kind and trustworthy. Mentors and teachers like that are hard to find sometimes and it makes me happy for the girls that they have the chance to learn from her. 7 Link to comment

I love Yuko. 3. (I don't think this is an unpopular opinion, probably more like a popular "statement") If Gina rises her left eyebrow to the camera one more time I swear... 4. Based on what Holly presents to the camera, she seems pretty humble and nice to me. Of course she made a mistake but I still love her. Same goes for Erica. 5. I HATE BRENNAN. Her face is just so off to me, as is her personality. Not a DCC now nor will she ever be. 6. Vivian might've been one of the worst TCCs ever. One of the most self-absorbed girls I have ever seen. 7. Chelsea was always very fake and try-hardish to me. Maybe she was trying to cover up the fact that she is an awful dancer? 8. Kashara can be a bit much sometimes, but overall I think she's a good girl and I like her. And I think she might be the best point for right now (other than Jenna of course) 9. I love Jinelle's personality. 10. I'm not sure if there is a single girl in TC this season that I think is the total package (ie- looks, dancing, personality, leadership, poise, etc.) or that I really like a lot at all... I agree with you on #1. I love Jenn K. I also love Brittney Schramm, and Courtney Cook., Mackenzie ( the cute little one with the ankle weights). Yukos fine, too. I think she belongs there. 5 Link to comment

Yep, honestly don’t know why we haven’t seen weight talks with her. Her solo at finals was awful too. She must be one hell of a talker or something, I don’t see the appeal. While Christina and Taryn both had questionable kicks, I heard from more than one person that Kelli was not a fan of Taryn's "look" (she did mention in one episode her face shape or something) and just could not get past it and it's not something she can change, like a hairstyle; they did really like her as a person though - sweet and hard working. I guess it's one of those to each their own - I think Taryn is gorgeous. Is Jessika one that was a rangerette or whatever, with the super amazing kicks? I keep thinking that is part of her appeal, they never have to worry about her flexibility. 2 Link to comment

I just feel like they’ve done a poor job of explaining the rationale behind the cuts. What does Christina have that Brennan didn’t? Or that Taryn doesn’t? Why keep Alexandra around? I just don’t feel we’ve seen the explanation. 2 Link to comment

I see she tried out many times for DCC...I think i liked her hair best in 2014 but if she had it that dark she'd be one more for me to confuse with Rachel and Molly. I honestly think she is gorgeous and she had some beautiful pics from the calendar shoot. I just wish they could figure her look out because that's not really her fault. 3 Link to comment

RazzleberryPie October 13, 2017 Share October 13, 2017 Jessika is very beautiful, but not a 'wow' dancer, and she definitely looks thick this year.

I don’t mind them, but I’m always baffled by how people on the boards give them passes for doing antics that others get crucified for. They’re two beautiful girls who are fully aware that they’re beautiful, hence the constant blowing kisses to the camera (which I cant stand). Vivian used to do that too, and people would go berserk over it. Their social media is full of “look how pretty I am” just like Jenna’s, but only Jenna gets blasted for it. To me they’re just as self-absorbed as others, they just try to hide it better. 8 Link to comment

sleepyjean October 16, 2017 Author Share October 16, 2017 I wonder if this is meant to be original choreography. I've seen a lot of these moves before. It's kind of weird that she would throw in that one move they use when they're heading out on the field for pregame, the one where they're marching in place for a few counts with one and on the hip and the other punches out at a low angle, then back to the hip, out and back tot the hip. That's an odd-looking move without poms. I guess it doesn't really matter if it's recycled moves, since it's pro prep class. You might as well do the same moves as the "real" cheerleaders, LOL.

And just like any other class at any other studio, the teacher and assistants get a flat rate, not the full amount of what each student/participant is paying.
