Holly Hatcher-Frazier

Holly Sabrina Hatcher-Frazier is the wife of Evan Frazier, Sr. and is the mother of Evan Frazier Jr, Nia and William.

Holly frequently argues with Abby about the lack of attention she gives Nia in the studio and the uninspiring choreography Nia is often assigned, which Holly feels isn't at a competitive standard, as well as her displeasure with Abby's tendency to typecast Nia in various ethnic roles, particularly in the first two seasons.

However, Holly has gained a reputation for keeping a calm attitude in most situations, completely refraining from the use of profanity, and willingly serving as the mediator in many conflicts, earning her the title of The Rational One among the dance moms.

Early in the history of the show, Holly finished her Doctorate in Education from the University of Pennsylvania. At times on the show, she is named Dr Holly, using her academic title.

Holly and Nia were original members who remained on the elite team from the very beginning of the series until season seven, when they left the ALDC with the other elite members (expect for Brynn). to form The Irreplaceables in Ashlee's Big Decision Part 1.
