The road has not been easy for “Dance Mom’s” star Abby Lee Miller. After completing her prison sentence last year, the famed dance instructor was diagnosed with non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma. But if anything, Abby has proven she is a fighter and is not ready to hang up the dance shoes. The new season of Dance Moms follows Abby as she rebuilds her dance company while battling the after-effects of cancer that has left her confined to a wheelchair. Abby is ready to get back to her life and do what she loves most…teaching students to dance! With the goal of putting her life, health and dance studio back together, Abby returns to where it all began – the Abby Lee Dance Company in Pittsburgh.

Dance Moms follows children's early steps on the road to stardom along with their doting mothers all under Abby Lee Miller's discerning eyes. Presenting a powerful cast of characters, the show immerses itself in the highs and lows surrounding dance competition season, delivering a captivating and dramatic look at the cast's intense pursuit of National Dance titles. Centered on the devoted Miller, who runs Abby Lee Dance Company with an iron tap shoe as she instructs her young, talented students while also dealing with impassioned mothers who go to great lengths to help their children's dreams come true, Dance Moms is about what really goes on behind-the-scenes in the fast-growing and controversial sport of competitive dance.

-Abby Lee Miller

For a dancer, that's beautiful.❤

[breakingfreedm]

aw leslie, i felt so bad for her this episode, abby too :( it’s so hard to lose a parent or ANYBODY, this dance was so beautiful <3

8:44 Maddie and Brooke should have had a duet together like they could do a front aerial in sync

This has to be one of the best dances the ALDC did on the show, and it NEVER aired. It is also the ONLY dance I can say, from all season (maybe along with the witches of east canton) that I felt they choreographed the dance so every single member was on a the same talent level. It was stunning. Everyone was beautiful in this dance and thats how it should be. I HATE Abby, but I felt bad for her in this episode. What honestly hurt my heart was Paige in this episode. They FINALLY showed Paige as the fun loving, happy girl she was, and when they called Abby on the phone and Paige said "this is Paige and I love you" hurt my heart. Because as AWFUL as Abby was to page for all 4 seasons, Paige still adored Abby, when Abby never deserved an ounce of love for Paige.

This episode was the most beautiful thing ever and the dance was amazing and I get how Abby could go and I support her and when Abby started crying it made me cry it was a lovely moment and I hope all the Dance mom members are happy and are living a happy life

Happy Mother’s Day to all of the Mamas! 💗

Only thing I have in common with Abby. My mother passed away 10 years ago this June. I miss her so much. Leslie's right. Abby would be "okay, " but it's extremely rough, even now.

[NOVATHEEARTHFAIRY]

Happy mother's day to all moms even to the moms who sadly past
Its ok to be sad😢 some of us feel your pain

[mehak]

One episode where abby was remotely human.

[leona]

So cute how they all feel for especially Leslie and crying
It's much nicer to see when Abby and the girls and moms get along well. If abby is nice then the moms will be nice back. If only abby could always be so friendly

[CassieEq]

this was such a gorgeous dance, and the girls look so beautiful

[caseymcparland]

I have two questions with this..
where was Chloe? She wasn’t in the dance. AND
why was Peyton and Leslie at the competition with everyone if Peyton wasn’t in the dance??

[Yourdancergirl]

This dance is BEAUTIFUL but they could have done the pink ribbon dance here. They both would have won!

[j-rodthelibrarykid]

My dad just passed away. It's something painful nothing really prepares you for

[alexabrierley]

I loved my uncle alot and I miss him dearly .

[evelyndunham]

[LottieHarper-vhsk]
