Synopsis

edit

Dance Revolution was hosted by DJ Rick (a.k.a. Rick Adams) and the Slumber Party Girls (Caroline Scott, Cassie Scerbo, Karla Deras, Carolina Carattini and Mallory Low).

Every half-hour episode started with music from the house band, the Slumber Party Girls. Then DJ Rick would introduce the "Dance Crews" (the teams of contestants) and the judges. The Dance Crews would then start to perform their own dance routines. When they were finished, choreographer Leah Lynette would come to teach the Dance Crews some new styles of dancing. Finally, the Dance Crews would have a dance off. The judges would then declare who the winning Dance Crew was and the winners would move on to the next round, leading up to the finale, which awarded. $25,000 scholarship to the winner. Although Dance Revolution was inspired by the video game series Dance Dance Revolution, there is nothing similar between the two except for the name.
