Sabra Johnson became America’s Favorite Dancer

Sabra Johnson has been named the first female winner of the So You Think You Can Dance crown, earning $250,000. Johnson has only four years of dance training – something that impressed Dance judge and co-creator Nigel Lythgoe.

Runner-up Tidwell, who was praised by judges Nigel Lythgoe, Mary Murphy and Dan Karaty for his technical proficiency but often chastised by guest judges for his “arrogance,” happens to be the adopted brother of last year’s second place finisher, Travis Wall.
