This is such a beautiful duet. Maddie was so little here. I think this is why Maddie was always Abby's favorite. She was a great dancer from the very beginning. And it's not just her technique, it's also her emotions. It makes the whole dance a lot more enjoyable.
This one was from the color movie where Patty Duke played Anne Sullivan, as opposed to the early black and white version where she made her film debut as Helen. Both are admirable in my opinion. The Miracle Worker was done many times by different theaters and film companies. Any version you see will have a great deal of emotion.
The storying telling in this dance is just exquisite, the vulnerability is breathtaking, technique is just outstanding and their emotional connection is just so precious, this is by far my fav duo before the show xx
This was amazing and told such a great story. I actually took a class from Brittany Pent and I just found out she danced at the ALDC and now She did a duo with Maddie! So cool
because jump don't let any camera men (besides their own) film at competition, and there's no way lifetime would've been able to use this song due to copyright.
Maddie was truly amazing for her age. Or at least at that time. If she would just continue to grow she would be so much better than what she was in s6 of dance moms. (No hate intended i love maddie still)
Yes. She really would but the numerous job offers and not getting challenged made her worse (still good). But after she left and focused on hip hop she really improved in that sphere. P.S I know you commented 2 years ago
she is still incredibly flexible right now. but younger people are supposed to be more flexible. something about softer bones and muscles or something.
Yeah, in her Over the Rainbow solo she could get her heels to touch her head doing the chin stand, but as she got older she could barely get her toes to touch, if at all.
I'm not a great Maddie's fan (I prefere Mackenzie) but she's a very good dancer and in this duet I can't stop watching her!! (Sorry for my bad english)
This dance is older than disappear. DM was originally only supposed to be six episodes, so Abby reused old solos/groups for those episodes. That's why, if you search hard enough, most likely you will find dances the girls did when they were young that are the same choreo, but different music to the dances in the first six episodes of DM.
Before dance moms Abby was just the studio owner and there were other teachers that come in and do classes and choreograph dances before competitions. Then dance moms and it was mainly Abby and just Gia who choreographed the dances.
One thing I never understood about this dance, as beautiful as it was, why they made Maddie’s face look so dirty. Hellen Keller was a rich child and very well taken care of, definitely not dirty 🤣
That's because most dances from season 1 are other dances but they have to change choreography or the song for copyright reasons. Like the cry solo was actually somewhere over the rainbow
It's about Helen Keller and Anne Sullivan. Anne taught Helen how to communicate by teaching her sign language.. the dance is basically showing young Helen and Anne when Helen was first learning.. i think the dance may be based of the book/movie 'the miracle worker' too
Dance moms was originally only meant to be 6 episodes, so Abby tried to save time and have the girls do old routines instead. This duet was done before the show even started, and Abby decided to revise it into a solo for Disappear.
Did they use a lot of the choreographer for her later Helen Keller solo? It seems like it. Either way, this proves how awesome the duets on the show could have been if they every put more than just the same few steps in >.> even Maddie's duets turned to blah after a while, because its the same things. Same emotions, same steps. This shows how little creativity Abby has honestly.
It's weird how they are in the corner for a full eight count just standing there...yes, Maddie is doing the sign thing but it brings nothing to the dance. She could have done a 3 letter word and no one would have known the difference and it wouldn't have mattered... (around 2:40)
They should have showed how good she was at this young on those other videos, when they showed her doing that awful ballet dance cell then started Chloe out at 9 years old so she would look better ! Maddie is definitely the better dancer then and most definitely now ! Winning teen choice 3 years running! Rachel Cole under my husbands screen name sorry!
I feel bad for the older girl, this is a super lame dance for teen division. The choreography isn't good and the music sucks. But at least there's more documentation that Abby recycles costumes, concepts, and choreography.... they didn't do a bad job it's just boring.
Can you explain why you'd respond to my comment with that? I'm aware of the Helen Keller and Ann Sullivan story. It's great that they did well with it. It's Pittsburgh competition so that's not terribly surprising but I didn't say anything about their scoring or anything either, good for them. I was just saying I didn't like it and found it boring to watch, and wanted to note that this choreography and concept was used by Abby on other occasions. So I'm not sure why you're trying to respond in a cruel way or act like I'm stupid haha.
The back story isn't what makes this lame haha, it's the choreography that I didn't like. What's your deal? Yeah I'm fine with people disagreeing with my opinion haha I'm a big girl, I can handle it. If they won with this multiple times good for them. I still didn't like it and everything I didn't like about it is an insult to the studio, not the dancers. I'm not going to stop expressing my opinion but when someone tries to respond to it in a way that doesn't make a whole lot of sense, I'll usually respond back. I'd rather have like, a normal grown up conversation about it than even respond to someone that's attacking me about my opinions though haha...
I look like dissapear at the beginning but over all this dance was amzing.
Anise Irving it essentially is, just as a solo.
Yeah
It has the same costume
The Choreogrophy was re-used
Yes Maddie was amazing in this I definitely won't deny that but is no one going to talk about Brittany's leaps,turns and tilts they looked beautiful
Yes! Brittany was really good too!!
This is such a beautiful duet. Maddie was so little here. I think this is why Maddie was always Abby's favorite. She was a great dancer from the very beginning. And it's not just her technique, it's also her emotions. It makes the whole dance a lot more enjoyable.
Umm, Maddie wasn't the favorite back then. It was Brooke who was the favorite, Maddie was like 6 here, Brooke was 8-9-10 or something like that
Lýnn Maddie was 7/8 Brooke was 12 one year before dance moms
@@beckyy584 she still was the favorite at the time cz she has something none of the others had
@@robloxdudevevovevo9745 how about Chloe she told the story through out her dancing too
Maddie turned 8 here
1:38 I can’t believe she did this, even thought mostly in her solos she doesn’t do a chin stand or elbow stand like Kenzie
So amazing
The beginning was from disappear!! My favorite maddie solo
Costume and hair looks similar too
Yeah
Fun fact: Brittany is actually the sister of Brandon, the boy that was in Snapshot that Abby paired up with Brooke
Oh wow that's crazy
This reminds me of Maddie's solo Helen Keller because both dances are a tribute to Helen Keller and the costumes are similar 😍
I think it was the same costume as Disappear
I think some of this was from Helen keller (or these moves were in Helen keller) but Abby has had done Helen keller on another student prior to Maddie
This is the story about helen keller and her teacher
@@clementineroberts6055 and some of the Choreography, especially the beginning sequence.
Awwwwww....Maddie is so tiny there
this routine makes me want to go and watch the movie ... this was beautiful
This one was from the color movie where Patty Duke played Anne Sullivan, as opposed to the early black and white version where she made her film debut as Helen. Both are admirable in my opinion.

Britney is amazing and soo nice I’ve met her
this duet is about Helen Keller and her teacher anne
lover dancemoms 1 I saw the movie “The Miracle Worker” and I saw Maddie’s solo “Helen Keller.”
i know
@@salomonjrmiel5834 Well I didn’t because I can’t hear anything right now lol
Anne Frank lol😂
This dance was just glorious and very well told thorough dance
The best dance I've ever seen!
I agree
This is a long dance for maddie to learn
Real
This was amazing and told such a great story. I actually took a class from Brittany Pent and I just found out she danced at the ALDC and now She did a duo with Maddie! So cool
Jump everybody, jump everybody JUMP! :D
I wish this dance found it’s way on the show, It’s one of my favs
why’s no one talking about how amazing Brittany is???
This is stunning
maddie was amazing, she was SEVEN
In 2011 she was 8 or 9
y’all are acting as if 8 is so much bigger than 7..
Both dancers did an excellent job! Great choreography. I wonder why we didn't see this on the show??
This duet was done before the show even began. Maddie was probably 7 when she did this duet with Brittany Pent, and the show started when she was 8.
Actually, she was nine in this performance.
because jump don't let any camera men (besides their own) film at competition, and there's no way lifetime would've been able to use this song due to copyright.
@@Hereismytwocents2011 She was 8.
I wish we could see that duet on show, it was a such beautiful duet
That’s actually kind of beautiful 😭😭
I learned about this girl in school
Maddie was truly amazing for her age. Or at least at that time. If she would just continue to grow she would be so much better than what she was in s6 of dance moms. (No hate intended i love maddie still)
Yes. She really would but the numerous job offers and not getting challenged made her worse (still good). But after she left and focused on hip hop she really improved in that sphere.
P.S I know you commented 2 years ago
bro Brittany is amazing
I loved that dance it made me want to cry in a good way😀😃😄😊😌
this is amazing I can’t stop watching it
Maddie is so tiny awww
How old was Maddie here? She is AMAZING was ans still is
she was 7
Thanks. I love both of her Helen Keller a lot. She just a really good dancer
yeah, she´s such a special dancer
She was eight this piece was performed in 2011
8. This was in 2011 the same time the first season of DM came out.
She was so young here and so gifted
the perfect pair for this dance
If Brittany and Maddie did a duet despite their age differences, why didn't we get a Brooke Hyland and Kenzie duet??😥
I loved it! Maddie was so much more flexible back then. Wow!
I think she's probably still pretty flexible and we just don't get to see it on the show anymore
she is still incredibly flexible right now. but younger people are supposed to be more flexible. something about softer bones and muscles or something.
Yeah, in her Over the Rainbow solo she could get her heels to touch her head doing the chin stand, but as she got older she could barely get her toes to touch, if at all.
Because bones are softer when you’re younger. She’s still flexible but it’s not as easy for her to do it now.
@@mindyschocolate She got her heels to touch her head in Freak Show, and that was S5
I want to do a duet with a little girl now!!
Well I'm short! :D
The beginning with Maddie was exactly like Disappear
Beautiful, too bad they never showed this on the show
misfit4229 It happened before DM
@Jojo siwa hairline Derv Saying* happened* dance* happen* are*
@Jojo siwa hairline Derv It actually WAS before dance moms.
Sakura ALDC this one was but there is another one that happen on the show
Im reading that book, this is so beautiful
I'm not a great Maddie's fan (I prefere Mackenzie) but she's a very good dancer and in this duet I can't stop watching her!!
(Sorry for my bad english)
Beautiful dance!
This is like a sweet story it gonna make meh cry
Wonderful
This is so cute
I just realized the beginning is the same from her disappear solo.
this was so pretty
The beginning is disappear mad does old other solo❤️💛💚💙💜
This dance is older than disappear. DM was originally only supposed to be six episodes, so Abby reused old solos/groups for those episodes. That's why, if you search hard enough, most likely you will find dances the girls did when they were young that are the same choreo, but different music to the dances in the first six episodes of DM.
BRITTANY!!!
She was so little.
Where did they place?
1st place in teen division (platinum)
Jump competition in Pittsburgh 2011
Before dance moms Abby was just the studio owner and there were other teachers that come in and do classes and choreograph dances before competitions. Then dance moms and it was mainly Abby and just Gia who choreographed the dances.
this duet was unaired at the episode of bullets and ballets
One thing I never understood about this dance, as beautiful as it was, why they made Maddie’s face look so dirty. Hellen Keller was a rich child and very well taken care of, definitely not dirty 🤣
100th comment also the beginning is choreography from Disappear
Is one of the talkers is kristin chenoweth
This is the white dress Maddie wore in her solo
I -l-I-v-e-d t-h-a-t d-a-n-c-e I-t m-k-e-s m-e w-a-n-t t-O c-r-y 😔😊☺️😃😀😃😄😳😃
what does maddie fingerspell into brittany's hand at the end?
sign language but i read helen's book where she also learned braille code
Same choreo as dissapear in the beginning
I thought I was the only one who noticed that!
Amanda Nance I almost turned it because I thought it was Disappear until the other girl came out :-D
I noticed that too!
That's because most dances from season 1 are other dances but they have to change choreography or the song for copyright reasons. Like the cry solo was actually somewhere over the rainbow
And Chloe's solo Baby Mine was actually Ma, He's Makin' Eyes At Me.
2:49 Amanda Thripp? 😭😭
LMAOOO
it’s the same dance maddie did on the show. it’s weird how abby says all dances are new
What happens at 1:11?
Fabiana Aranda, she's spelling out words using sign language
Does anybody know the name of this music?
Chloé Shelley I think it's "Jeux D'eau" (at least that's what youtube claims it is)
The background music is Jeux D'eau, and they took some sound snippets from the hellen keller movie and put it in it, too.
thank you!! :)
you're welcome! :)
What is the story behind this dance?
It's about Helen Keller and Anne Sullivan. Anne taught Helen how to communicate by teaching her sign language.. the dance is basically showing young Helen and Anne when Helen was first learning.. i think the dance may be based of the book/movie 'the miracle worker' too
Okay thanks i rewatched it and i get it now because you explained it thanks
futuregymnasts_edits the movie made me cry bc this story is real😭😭
there are snippet of disappear in it all over… interesting
Dance moms was originally only meant to be 6 episodes, so Abby tried to save time and have the girls do old routines instead. This duet was done before the show even started, and Abby decided to revise it into a solo for Disappear.
Is the audio from a movie ?? If so what movie
yes from the movie called the miracle worker
Is Brittany pent s8mehow related to Brandon pent?
Gabriella Penfold ya it’s his older sister
Alyssa Katz I know it
Didn’t maddie also use that for disappear ig she reused this coustume for dissapear
No this was first before disappear
WOW!!!! This SO looks looks like an Abby choreography though. Was it?
Yes it was
Everyone:Omg MADDIE!! and some other stuft about maddie
Me:OMG HELEN KELLER!!😍 ILYSM HELEN KELLER YOU ARE IN HEAVE NOW😭
the choreography is almost the same as solo 'disappear'
Helen Keller with another person
Did they use a lot of the choreographer for her later Helen Keller solo? It seems like it. Either way, this proves how awesome the duets on the show could have been if they every put more than just the same few steps in >.> even Maddie's duets turned to blah after a while, because its the same things. Same emotions, same steps. This shows how little creativity Abby has honestly.
Yes, she said that Maddies solo Helen Keller was inspired but this "undefeated duet."
It's weird how they are in the corner for a full eight count just standing there...yes, Maddie is doing the sign thing but it brings nothing to the dance. She could have done a 3 letter word and no one would have known the difference and it wouldn't have mattered... (around 2:40)
ConcreteAngelx3 n
It actually brings alot to the dance it shows that Maddie's character is learning the sign language and is actually a very important part of the dance
They should have showed how good she was at this young on those other videos, when they showed her doing that awful ballet dance cell then started Chloe out at 9 years old so she would look better ! Maddie is definitely the better dancer then and most definitely now ! Winning teen choice 3 years running! Rachel Cole under my husbands screen name sorry!
Kenzie no bailaba tan bien a los 7
I feel bad for the older girl, this is a super lame dance for teen division. The choreography isn't good and the music sucks. But at least there's more documentation that Abby recycles costumes, concepts, and choreography.... they didn't do a bad job it's just boring.
