"Dance Moms" is almost ready for its sixth season and has even released a promo video.

The Lifestyle reality show follows a group of children (along with their mothers) and their careers in dance with the guidance of Abby Lee Miller, chief choreographer of the Abby Lee Dance Company (ALDC) that is under Reign Dance Productions (of which she is director).

The show is in the middle of filming its sixth season and fans of the show are eager to find out what's in store.

Lucky for them, a spoiler site has been following and detailing the group's activities, including events and dances, and even posting clips online. The website also provides assumptions of what it thinks each episode will feature. It has gone as far as episode 8 as of writing.

According to the website, episode 8 will show the members of the Abby Lee Dance Company and its mentor/choreographer attending Dream NDC in San Diego, CA. It also detailed some of the members' performances as well as rankings.

Nia Frazer's dance number "Money Makes the World Go Round" reportedly ranked 4th in the teen division, but did not place overall.

Jojo Siwa's dance number "Mercy" ranked 3rd place in the junior division, but also did not place overall.

Mackenzie Ziegler got 1st place in the junior division for her "Can't Take My Fire" routine and even placed 2nd overall.

Meanwhile, the entire ALDC team ranked 1st in the junior division and overall with their rendition of "Seven Deadly Sins."

Maddie Ziegler (Mackenzie's older sister), known for her dance performances in singer Sia's music videos, will reportedly not be making an appearance in a few episodes because of a conflict in schedule. Ziegler had been filming for a drama film titled "The Book of Henry" directed by Colin Trevorrow.

"Dance Moms" season 6 will return to Lifetime on Jan. 5.
