Other Information[]
- For the first time on the show, the winner of the group challenge did not win anything that affected the assignments (ex. winning a solo, picking their style of dance, etc.) and instead, Amanda C won two tickets to New York to see Cirque du Solei: Worlds Away.
- This marked the first time where both Amanda C and Brianna land in the bottom two.
- The group challenge was performed on a balance beam.
- For the first time, a dancer who has won the group challenge gets eliminated.
