SYTYCD: The Next Generation LA Auditions

There is a lot of young talent out there and honestly I’m glad that SYTYCD has decided to share it with us. First off I enjoyed the new intro for the show, but still missed the so you think you can dance at end. How else am I supposed to know when the show is starting or back from commercial.

Los Angeles is the first stop on the audition process. Like before the dancers perform in front of the judges to move on to the next round. So instead of a ticket to Vegas, they get a ticket to the Academy. I’m not sure what exactly what the academy will be like but I have an idea. Then the All Stars have the task of picking who will be on their team.

I can honestly say that these kids have impressed me…lots of talent in many genres of dance. Their personalities are great too and add in embarrassing parents usually leads to entertainment.

Hard to pick out a favorite just yet, but I did enjoy the ballroom dancer Lev and the tap dancer Ava.

Dance is one of my biggest passions. I grew up dancing at Augusta West Dance Studio (the same studio that Kathryn McCormick). I have a BFA in theatre/dance from Valdosta State University. Tap is my favorite style of dance.

SYTYCD Season 13…Starts Tonight!

SYTYCD: The Next Generation is then new title for season 13. This season is all about the young dancers between the age 8-13 competing for the title of America’s favorite dancer. Can’t say I’m surprised by the format change and from what I’ve seen on social media so far it hasn’t received good feedback yet. I’m choosing to be open minded and look forward to seeing what the Next Generation has to offer. Something tells me we are in for a surprise. Nigel, Paula, and Jason are back at the judges panel and Maddie Ziegler from Dance Moms will also be a judge during the live shows.

Look for my initial thoughts later and the full list of All-Stars that will be participating in this season.
