The dancers are divided into 5 groups to attend class with each choreographer: Alex's salsa class, Brian's hip-hop class, Dan's hip-hop class, Mia's contemporary class and Mary's ballroom class. As the week draws to a close the choreographers meet with Nigel to decide who will be cut. The choices are made and announced to whittle the group down to 24 finalists.
