The show saw dancers go head-to-head as they hoped to snag a coveted spot on the team. Those individuals went through supportive and emotional journeys as the show featured less-than-average catty drama. After the show, the winners joined her dance crew and were welcomed warmly by fans. However, the crew at large hasn't been heard from in over a year after a farewell post on Instagram signifying the end of the tour. Where are they now?
