Dancer | Status | Joined | Left | Notes |
---|---|---|---|---|
Tayluer Amos | Inactive | S1E0 | S2E8 | Tayluer is often referred to as the "UK Maddie" due to Jennifer's favoritism towards her. Since day one Tayluer has proved herself to be a hardworking dancer who craves perfection. Tayluer remained on the team until the show's conclusion. |
Eleiyah Navis | Inactive | S1, E0 | S2E8 | Eleiyah is Tayluer's biggest rival and is determined to come out on top instead of being second best. She practices day and night to make she's always on her A game. Eleiyah remained on the team until the show's conclusion. |
Chloe Fenton | Inactive | S1E0 | S2E8 | Chloe is the youngest dancer on the team but despite this, Jennifer describes her as a being her "prodigy". Chloe has shown that she doesn't let anyone get in her way when it comes to first place. Chloe remained on the team until the show's conclusion. |
Aleah Simpson | Inactive | S1E0 | S2E8 | Aleah is evidently the weakest dancer on the team, due to her lack of experience. However, this doesn't stop Aleah from working her hardest to try and improve. Aleah remained on the team until the show's conclusion. |
Leah Rose Kennedy | Inactive | S2E2 | S2E8 | Leah Rose was first introduced at the crisis auditions in One Man Down: Crisis Auditions, however, this was her only appearance in the first season. Leah Rose was later brought in as part of the reserve team in season two. After impressing Jen in the Work group dance, she was added to the main team the following week. Leah Rose remained on the team until the shows conclusion. |
Harry Smallman | Recurring/ Inactive |
S2E1/S2E8 | S2E2/S2E8 | Harry was added to the team after auditions in the first episode of the second season. However, Jennifer announced in episode four that Harry had to leave the team due to school commitments. Despite this, Harry and his mother returned for the season finale. |

Molly Thorpe-Franklin | Dismissed | S1E0 | S2E8 | 9 | Molly had been part of the team since it's creation but was dismissed prior to No-one's Safe due to her being one of the bottom two on the final pyramid in It's the Dance World Cup. |
