Simply Irresistible was performed by Just For Kick's Senior Performance Team. It was choreographed and directed by mother/daughter team Jen and Taylor Scott. Amber is wearing pink, 2nd row (middle when it starts), 2nd from right.

Simply Irresistible
Hey Ricky was performed by Ethan and Amber's tap class. It was choreographed by the studio owner, Tanya Bleil-Johnson. Amber is second in from the left. Of course, they all look exactly the same!
Back in March/April, Tanya asked the three boys if they would meet with Ryan Posey and learn Smooth Criminal. Their friend, Jonathan joined them, and the four boys had a crash class on this piece. It was so fast and difficult. From what I understand, this particular number has been done quite a bit over the years. The one dancing closest to the camera is Ryan, who choreographed it for them this year.
A few weeks prior to recital, Christine Luders, the ballroom teacher, asked Evyn, Ethan, and Amber if they would do the East Coast Swing number, Crazy Little Thing Called Love. They would be dancing with the team. Christine used a couple of the other older kids from the teen class, too, who had done the number the year before. (It was being done because it was part of the anniversary celebration.) So, in about a day's time, Ian taught Evyn the moves, and then he picked up the rest at practices.
And that is all I have in videos from backstage. Enjoy :)
