sleepyjean January 6, 2018 Share January 6, 2018 (edited) Let the 2018 games begin! There's no thread for the next season, so I'm putting this here. I trust the mods will move it to a more appropriate location, if necessary. Victoria has been working on her power. Dayton is in prep class, along with former Spurs dancers Minerva and Lindsey, who have also auditioned in past years. Minerva has a new look. Maybe it will help her stand out. I can't really tell if Dayton has been working on her physique but I'm sure she'll be on point for auditions. The blonde dancing behind her looks vaguely familiar. I am very interested to see if Ashley Gallagher, the powerful little blonde from last year will audition this year. Looks like she's in college in Houston now. Maybe she will audition for the Texans. ETA: Shelly's video. See anyone else you recognize?I think I seeDutchess (from TX Legends a few years back). Maybe just a girl with similar hair, though.

tinabee1967 January 6, 2018 Share January 6, 2018 Victoria is on fya! I think she's great. Very entertaining to watch. Dayton knows the routine, but she is at risk of blending. 3 Link to comment
UnicornKicks January 6, 2018 Share January 6, 2018 Who is the blond who looks like Cassie in that second clip with Dayton? Looks familiar. Link to comment
dreamcatcher January 7, 2018 Share January 7, 2018 Victoria still looks out of her league. She seems better in this clip because the choreo looks spastic on its own. But considering the girls they keep bringing on the squad...she won't look so out of place. Dayton needs to find her power. Her technique is great, but she just doesn't perform. And she has so much help from the inside so she needs to be outdancing the other girls at this point. I'm still bitter Ashley didn't even make it to semis last year. She outdances half of the rookies (well, half of the squad) and she is cute. 5 Link to comment

Mabinogia January 7, 2018 Share January 7, 2018 2 hours ago, dreamcatcher said: Dayton needs to find her power. Her technique is great, but she just doesn't perform. so true. Watching her I see she knows all the moves, she's doing them all correctly, but...she's so boring to watch. Maybe she's just marking the steps (I think that's what they say) and isn't really going for it, because if that is her going for it, she shouldn't make it this year either. Doesn't mean she won't, though. I do like her, I just think she needs to trust that she knows the steps and just let go and dance like she loves it. 2 Link to comment
EricaShadows January 7, 2018 Share January 7, 2018 Victoria looked out of control, even if the choreography was supposed to look like that. She needs to be more precise. I don't know if she has power or just too much enthusiasm/having too much fun to actually be paying attention to her dancing/placement. 2 Link to comment
DCC.Style.fan January 7, 2018 Share January 7, 2018 I missed Victoria, I will have to re watch. I think Dayton looks great, she looks slimmer and her hair has grown longer. The dance technique is spot on, but I agree the power and showmanship is missing. Is there any one from past years that yall can think of that had the whole package BUT the power and SMS (showmanship) I am gonna say SMS from now on... Seriously has there been someone who was boring and lacked power and then came around and eventually became a standout performer? I know Megan Sharp has issues here rookie year and she came around for sure. I hate to say this but, besides Dayton and maybe a few others I saw briefly, that whole group looked kinda , "getting cut at pre-lims". Link to comment
UnicornKicks January 7, 2018 Share January 7, 2018 Hard to tell what Victoria is doing bc her camera is so close up. Maybe Dayton is learning or marking a new routine, but yeah I'd turn up the showmanship if going to post on social media. The have a lot of boring, powerless people right now, so might not be a factor. 1 Link to comment

Txmomof2 January 7, 2018 Share January 7, 2018 Dayton is gorgeous, and i agree her style seems more technical and fluid. She's one I could see doing a lyrical piece and being amazing at it. If she makes it to TC I see her needing to work on the power. I also wonder if it's a mental struggle for her maybe. She has the steps, she has the smile but it's like you can see her struggling to project. She reminds me a lot of Brianna from last season. Minerva doesn't have the figure yet. She maybe able to get there but that outfit isn't doing her any favors. Which I probably weigh 10 times more then her so I feel like a hypocrite saying That! Victoria fits with the Michelle Keys choreography style. It's not my favorite and I think even some of the best dancers can look spastic doing it. No one in the group videos just jumped out at me, but I don't follow enough to pick anyone out either. 1 Link to comment

mmm January 7, 2018 Share January 7, 2018 (edited) I think Victoria is better . Am I the only one that thinks the offical prep classes are not worth the money dance wise , it's beneficial for giving inside information about the audition process and the fact that you can ask DCC for advice (also i heard the sometime teach kicks which would help people who never did them) but i think the classes with Michelle keys, Sarah E,Brittney Evans( I know that she sometimes does the DCC ones which would be the ones i would go to) , Ashton (classes she gave before she got pregnant), stephannie wheat and kitty prep classes are definitely better in helping improve dancing skills.

Victoria Kiki January 9, 2018 Share January 9, 2018 Victoria is total DCC material! I love her IG videos and she’s got the moves and technique. I love her finishes and her power.

She's a very fluid, precise dancer, but she doesn't have a wit of power. I hope she finds it quickly so she can practice her power moves before tryouts. I understand wanting to walk in the footsteps of her mom and dance for a team with the type of reputation DCC has. But Dayton doesn't have to be a mini-me of her mom. She may not be a power dancer, so her innate style isn't conducive to DCC. If she can't find DCC power, I hope she can find her own style, find her own dance experience outside DCC. 5 Link to comment
tobeyoungagain January 10, 2018 Share January 10, 2018 Not a fan of Victoria but pretty sure she will make the team. I don't think she's that great of a dancer and what was it that Kelli said about one of the dancers and being gummy? 3 Link to comment

Victoria Kiki January 10, 2018 Share January 10, 2018 Regarding certain dancers—Agree to disagree, I guess! ???♀️ Poor Hannah—she was super slender her first year, and the second year, who knows what happened. Probably stress, I imagine. I personally think it’s gross when they pick on others for their weight when other dancers obviously have a weight “issue” (quotations because it isn’t an issue—all of these women are beautiful and I would give up wine forever to look like any of them right now lol) I hope whoever auditions knows that the process is not meant to be kind and to keep their chin up when hit with critiques—especially from people like us. I genuinely enjoy watching dance audition processes of any kind as I have been dancing since I was little, and I’m 37 and dance pointe and contemporary for fun. I am more than familiar with dance and different strokes for different folks—that’s why DCC has so many judges, because even they can’t agree on who is DCC/not DCC. Hope the auditioners enjoy the journey to May and that they do their homework. I hope people like Dayton are auditioning because they want this—not to follow their parents history. At the end of the day, they all love dance and I hope that they do this because they enjoy the experience and dancing. Maybe we can all try a little harder to remember we are critiquing college age women and we should be encouraging of them—not so...dismissive? Oh trust, I’m currently trying to practice what I preach lol. 6 Link to comment

Other one year vets got cut for the same thing. I don’t personally recall hearing that Hannah was on weight watch her rookie year and it must not have been too serious since she was never benched. What episode the weight watch was referenced in during her rookie season? This way I can go back and watch? Sure, she was out of shape at auditions and she should have known better. However, she wasn’t the only one that was out of shape. The fact that other girls the same year who were supposedly on weight watch, were given the opportunity to try My Fit Foods to lose the weight in a “healthy manner” while Hannah was unceremoniously let go, says to me that it wasn’t fair across the board. They even told Paige that year that she had gained 13 pounds. Yet, Paige remained on the team. I do think Hannah took her warnings seriously and that’s why she stated she was “blindsided” when she was cut. Hannah said she was trying to lose the weight the right way as a representative of the organization. She did not want to condone, I imagine, starvation diets or extreme exercise. This is how girls end up in the hospital. There was clearly something going on behind the scenes regarding Hannah and her weight was just the scapegoat to cut her. 7 Link to comment
bigskygirl January 11, 2018 Share January 11, 2018 Kelli said Hannah was called out for her weight during her rookie year. She acted like she had no clue on why she was called out for weight when she was called into the office. If she was told to get it together and work on losing weight before tryouts, and she came in out of shape and was given a second chance by bringing her back to TC, she should have been expecting to be cut. Yes, there were other girls who were gaining and not losing weight, but they must have taken it more seriously and tried to lose it. Veronica came close to being cut, but she worked hard on losing weight. I personally do not see what was so great about Paige in the first place, so I cannot see why she was kept in the first place. She was a blender who got away with dating a player while she was on the squad. Link to comment

We have no idea how seriously Hannah may or may not have taken her weight warnings. She may have been warned to come to auditions at her fighting weight but Kelli, Judy and Charlotte all agreed to bring her back. Based on that fact alone, Hannah should have been given the same opportunity to lose weight that Veronica and Schram were given at My Fit Foods. It's absolutely unfair to cut one girl for weight and yet give others a chance. to stay on the team. I also respect the fact that Hannah stated she was trying to lose weight in a safe manner since the DCC are notorious for eating disorders and using other methods to lose weight. I stand by the fact that I think there was more to the Hannah story. 7 Link to comment

Kitty is awesome. :) I think the thing that is so crazy about Hannah is that she seemed like a star on Making The Team during her rookie year. She was always singled out in a positive way, and just made it all look so easy. If anything, I thought she was kinda thin - more athletic build than the usual DCC. I thought that she and Melissa were the standouts, and that they'd compete to be the point, or group leaders in their 4-5 years. Cut to a year later and Hannah is completely out. I would never have guessed. It also goes to show you how wrong Kelly, Judy and Kitty are in the rookie years: Mia, Whitney, Danielle were not standouts in their rookie seasons, and ended up all being 5 year vets, group leaders, etc. And they kept calling Heather O pastel last season... Melissa even called Kelly saying she didn't have what it takes. The next year, bam - Kelly is saying how Heather had a fantastic year, and she's a 2nd group leader. I'm interested to see what rookies this year come back next year and get rave reviews: I've never seen them live but I feel like Molly, Lexie, Miranda seem like they'll be there for the longterm and it's possible that Kalyssa may not have had as big of an impact on the team as I would have guessed. You can kinda see who Kelly likes based on the rookies she's chosen for the Podcast, and what girls are named DCC of the week. Edited January 11, 2018 by Stee 1 Link to comment

All of that weight training does burn calories like crazy for some, but not all; aerobic training burns calories like crazy for some (like me) but not all. I think Jay's philosophy was too "one size fits all." 3 Link to comment
bigskygirl January 11, 2018 Share January 11, 2018 What gets me about Jay is his we have the girls do the military style physical tests the troops do. The military did their own testing to find out the two minute pushups, situps and two mile run did not get the true gasp of how well the troops were when it came to staying in shape. Now if Jay had the girls wearing the usual military gear and were sent out on a ten mile march in their workout outfits, I would be more impressed with Jay's training than a two minute situps, pushups and two mile run. Plus the fact the girls do not do the proper military situps and pushups in the first place. Link to comment

Yeah, what is up with them doing those situps? I thought the way they're done on the show was a back injury waiting to happen. 1 Link to comment
tinabee1967 January 11, 2018 Share January 11, 2018 (edited) By getting in touch with Jay, if K&J know this, they see that the cheerleader in question is addressing the situation. If that cheerleader did not get in touch with Jay ASAP, K&J take a dim view of it. Plus, if they DO go to Jay, work out like crazy and get bigger/gain, it is a total Catch 22. @ByTor, @MrsEVH, @LMarchBand, I stand corrected. Edited January 13, 2018 by tinabee1967 Link to comment
