It’s always cool to see more talent being showcased in reality TV outside of the usual drink-throwing and weave-pulling so I tip my snapback to Lifetime for allowing these ladies to shine, peep the teaser for ‘Step It Up’ and more from the YCDT Supastarz below..
-Lifetime reports;
In the all-new Lifetime docu-series “Step It Up,” Traci Young-Byron, a former Miami Heat Dancer and longtime team captain, is the owner of the elite dance company, the Young Contemporary Dance Theatre (YCDT). Traci’s competitiveness, especially her fierce rivalry with “Bring It!’s” Miss D and her Dancing Dolls, leads her to use unconventional methods to motivate her co-ed dance team.
For this company, the biggest competition isn’t other teams; it’s each other, as they must dance their hearts out to earn a coveted spot in a high-stakes performance each week. “Step It Up” (#StepItUp), premieres Friday, September 25th, at 10pm ET/PT following the “Bring It!” season finale. -Lifetime
