This season the new 'Dance Moms' cast includes five girls: Lilly, Hannah, GiaNina, Kamryn, Pressley and one boy: Brady. If you are wondering what you can expect from Miller and the rest of the 'Dance Moms' cast this season, the series released a sneak peek where Miller says, "I've been given a second chance. A second chance at life. I've been given a second chance to become a dance teacher."

And if you assumed that because of all the trials Miller has been through that she will be mellow and would soften her teaching styles, then you are so wrong. Miller is back on track just like her old self ready to give these kids the training they need.  After the series of promo videos and previews 'Dance Moms' shared on their social media page, fans cannot contain their excitement for the series to premiere.

Adding to that, another fan said, "if you ever need me on a Tuesday night, just know I’ll be reliving my childhood and will be watching the new season of dance moms ... #DanceMoms @Abby_Lee_Miller."
