Nicole Candler:
Nicole is starting off this final round as the first act. If you remember from last time Nicole is a Lyrical dancer who performed a really gentle number. This time around she’s dancing to a lovely ballad. Looking at her perform on stage, I can see that she’s made use experimenting with her legs and toes. Doing this just adds to the majesty from the song. It’s like she’s creating, or enacting a story on stage.
J-Bros:
Jason and Johnathan are back doing their Jazz/Hip-Hop number. If you remember they gave a really energetic performance in our last live event. This time around they giving off the same energy as before. Jason is capturing everyone’s heart in the audience as he makes the stage his home away from home, and Johnathan is there complementing all the hard work these two worked weeks for. Truly entertaining! You should hear the audience, they love them!
Rodasii:
Rodasii is back and decked out in even more exotic bellydancing costumes than before. Seriously…that stuff looks cool. Heavy! But cool.
I’ll take a picture of what they’re wearing this time so you can see what I’m talking about. To match their costumes, their dance was just as exotic. They’re showing the audience even more of their skills. Amazingly, they’ve successfully incorporated some hip-hop dance music in their performance. Now that I look at it, it’s a perfect fusion! I mentioned wanting to take Bellydancing after this and made Dr. Anvari very happy!
Jessica Dover:
Dover is back in the final round doing her hip-hop contemporary number. Ok, I won’t comment on her flat belly, but she has made the audience take notice of all the moves she’s putting out there for everyone to see. She’s taken more risks with handstands, forward flips. If Jessica wanted, she could be a great choreographer. So I’m hoping she receives a scholarship to make her dreams come true.
Good Cookie:
These two may be young, but they knew about Crush Groove!
They start off with a loud and very supportive crowd here in the audience. Their a hip-hop duo whose outfit is inspired by America’s Best Dance Groups’ Winners Jabawokee. Right now these guys placed some Crumping, old skool hip-hop moves, and a wonderful stage presence as they’re interacting with the song playing. So they’re not just dancing, they’re truly performing for us, Yuma. These continually had screams in the audience throughout their number.
And now it’s time for intermission! 5 performances left!

even though good cookie didn’t win i heard they placed 5th out of about 17 they did good! Because they are just a couple of kids from SP who jush decided to be in that competition…the only places they to practice was on the side of manny’s house (the driveway) and our pe’s office…No mirrors….and only 4 kids worked on the dances…(good cookie and the two shloket donuts)… and we all started dancing since probably December…and its not pro dancing just…well you seen how they danced ……a lil bit like that and a lil bit extra…..

Haha, I loved how everyone screamed for their favorite dancer. But I think everyone took noticed to how Good Cookie’s support made their presence known!
I don’t know about them placing 5th as I wasn’t the person tallying the votes, but I wouldn’t doubt that they were up there in the top five.
