It is unknown if she will be on Dance Moms as of Season 3, her mother stating in Reunion, Part 1 that she hasn't made a decision yet.

In Dance Moms
Brooke is usually in the middle of the pyramid, but has been on top a number of times.

Season One
Brooke suffered from back problems in Cheerleader Blues. Dispite being advised not to compete, Brooke managed to perform her routine. Brooke's former crush Brandon is brought into the group dance in Love on the Dance Floor. Abby sets them up on a date because she thinks the two don't have enough chemistry, but the date fails, being somewhat awkward between them, and the dance does not place.

Season Two
She has expressed a desire to quit dance to become a cheerleader like many of her friends multiple times, so, in Brooke's Turning Point, when she is offered a chance to try out for cheerleading which landed on the same day as a competition, she decides to audition instead. She gets on to the team, but soon finds out that she doesn't like it as much as she thought she would, so, in Brooke's Back, she asks Abby if she can come back to dance, and is allowed to only if her solo gets first place. It only receives third place, but Abby lets Brooke stay anyway.

In Night of the Living Dancers, Abby convinces Kelly to put Brooke in voice lessons at the studio. There, the instructor tells Abby Brooke wrote her own songs. In I Know What You Did Last Competition, she along with Paige were put on probation, but they have both been taken off.

In Maddie Has a Secret, Brooke's eighth grade formal falls on the same day as the competition, but she after informing Abby, she is allowed to attend, and Abby brings in Payton to replace her. In Break a Leg, Brooke experinced more back problems where it even hurt to breathe and her solo had to be pulled for her safety. Brooke recorded her song "Summer Love Song" and filmed a music video with the girls and Brandon and later she won Nationals with Chloe, Mackenzie, and the group.
