The Next Step Live - The Movie The Next Step

I think I'm looking forward to the very first moment

when we walk out on stage and we just experience the fans.

When the lights come up, the very first,

very first moment that the fans are going to see us because they have

no idea how much we appreciate them

and how much they actually mean to us.

The Mall Tour last year, we were expecting 500 kids at each city

and we walk in and there's like 1,200 kids, 2,200 kids.

Like, 3,000, 5,000 kids. We were blown away.

Today is the day.

Today we are in St John's, Newfoundland,

and we are having our very first show.

Of our first ever Next Step Live tour.

It's super, super exciting.

-I'm very anxious.

-I'm kind of overwhelmed.

I'm getting emotional.

And I'm excited.

I'm a little bit nervous but I think my excitement overpowers that

and it's just going to be amazing.

I think it's going to be pretty epic

because the venue we're in is huge and

the stage is massive. We're going to have so much space to tumble and do,

like, big tricks and stuff.

It's going to be crazy, I can't wait.

We've done a whole bunch of preparations, rehearsals,

tech runs and today's actually the first day that we get to

go on stage and perform in front of all the fans.

I'm just excited for that first moment where we walk

out on stage and see, like, the entire crowd and the screaming.

I know my adrenaline will go up

and all of a sudden we'll start killing the dance.

I feel like, in that moment, it just really,

really reminds me of how truly blessed

and grateful I am for everything that I've accomplished so far.

One, two, three, The Next Step.

CHEERING

As you can see, it's a very rainy day here in St John's.

Today is definitely not the day for the beach but we went.

We did manage to get to Middle Cove Beach

and see the furthest east point we're ever going to be on the tour.

I've never experienced anything like it.

It was freezing cold and windy as ever.

It was beautiful, even in the rain.

I can only imagine how beautiful it would be with the sun

and warm weather.

I threw the rocks. I wanted to see how far I could throw the rocks.

I tried to skip some rocks.

You don't get to see a lot of those kind of rocks where we're from.

I mean, we're from the city, so you

don't see any of that stuff very often.

Guys, I'm pretty sure we found an olive. I'm almost certain.

At the beach, you have to take a few selfies,

so, yes, we took some selfies and some group shots.

Guys, I want to take a picture. You got it?

At least pull your hoods back, so we can see who's who.

We were trying to take pictures

and you can't even see half of our faces because

our hoods are up and we're, like, trying to smile

and, like, get in the frame of the camera.

Newfoundland on three. One, two, three.

Newfoundland.

It's really rainy!

I picked up a really cool stone, actually.

I'm going to bring it with me all the way to Vancouver

and maybe like trade it off.

Drop one there, bring one back with me.

So I think it's going to be cool.

It was extraordinary, all of the mountains and the water

and, even though it is raining, it was still really, really nice

and a nice moment for all of us as a team to

kind of take in where we are and what exactly we're doing here.

-OK, ready?

-One, two, three.

To get ready for this tour, we've done a lot of prep work.

I mean, it's just mostly rehearsals.

Like, we've been rehearsing this past month.

# Na-na na-na na-na-na... #

A lot of review and we've also

come up with a whole bunch of new routines

and stuff like that for the fans to see.

It's been a lot of work.

Rehearsals was a lot for us.

We learned so many dances in such a short amount of time.

And just running through the show every day continuously

and, like, doing it full-out without an audience was, like, hard for us

and I feel like, with the audience,

it's going to be a little bit easier.

Before a show we just like to warm up and get together as a group.

Do some stretching and stuff.

In a typical warm-up, we start with a little cardio, like jogging,

jumping jacks, that kind of stuff.

Sometimes I lead it, sometimes other people lead it.

Er, Jordan actually lead it the other day

and that was pretty intense.

You know, we're all from different studios, so everyone

has, like, different exercises that they do in their warm-up.

So when each person gets to lead their warm-up, it's cool to see

the way each person has trained and, you know, what they focus on.

Is it the breath you're putting into the stretching or is it the,

you know, the alignment of your body, making sure you're

stretching the proper muscles or is that the conditioning?

I remember the first day we had rehearsals,

Jenny did abs with us and we were dead.

Jenny got up she was like, "OK, let's go."

We were all like beat on the ground, like, my stomach

was like throbbing it hurt so much.

Warm-ups before we do the show, they're pretty intense.

I love them, actually, because it makes sure that we're nice

and warmed up, it keeps us in shape throughout the whole tour.

So I'm really looking forward to being in top shape once this

tour is done.

So my solo in the show is called Showstoppa.

It's from season two of The Next Step.

It's the solo that I performed at Nationals

and I love it. It's so high energy and it's so much fun to do.

The song is so catchy,

so every single time I perform my solo I come off stage

and everyone else on the cast is singing my song and I'm just like,

"Ugh, stop singing it because I already have to hear it enough."

# When we hear that beat... #

I have a blast when I dance. Dance is kind of an escape for me.

So if I am smiling on stage, it's not false, it's really true.

Because I just love it so much, it just makes me feel really happy

and, you know, especially on tour,

seeing all the kids smiling at us, it just makes me smile even bigger.

So, yeah, I have a lot of fun when I'm on stage.

Michelle, you're in the way.

-Her name's Victoria.

-Her name is Victoria?

-I like calling you guys by your character names.

-OK, Riley.

Don't call me Riley! Kidding. Don't do it to me.

I don't think I look like a Michelle.

-I don't think I look like an Amanda.

-Yeah, you do.

No, I don't see a Logan.

-What? That's my name.

-I know, I don't see it for you, though.

-I see you differently.

-I was supposed to be named Raquel.

I was supposed to be Alexandra.

I'm supposed to be named Lauren.

-Really?

-Yeah.

-You don't look like a Lauren.

-I like Lauren much better.

-Really? Than Victoria?

-I don't think it suits me.

What about the boys? Who's been helping with the boys... look good?

-They don't have to do anything.

-We pluck Trevor's unibrow sometimes.

Wow, exclusive.

Exposing everyone.

Flaws, like bathroom things, nobody wants to know.

Nine weeks is a long time, so it will be

interesting to see how we all work together and live together.

I'd be lying if I said that there aren't going to be little

arguments and we're not going to get sick of each other a little bit.

Hopefully none of the boys are too messy because I'm not very

messy and I don't think I'll be able to deal with the messiness.

Actually, the girls, they get pretty messy but

Myles and Lamar keep their stuff really clean.

You come to our room now, everything is already folded in our suitcases.

After we wear something, we'll fold it up and we have a routine.

I'm going to have to work on keeping my area clean.

I'm a little bit messy and so is Trevor.

Definitely, I can tell you, I am the cleanest one.

I actually live with Lamar and Isaac and I'm only one who cleans.

I think we'll still love each other even though

we might want to have some alone time sometimes. I know I will.

But we definitely will get along still.

Can I please have Logan and Samantha?

-Whoo!

-Whoo!

My role on the tour is I am a substitute.

OK.

So just in case anybody gets hurt or someone feels sick,

I would replace them in the group dances.

SHOUTING

My role on this tour is the understudy.

So if anybody gets hurt, any one of the boys gets hurt,

I'm going to go on and take their place.

It's a lot harder being a sub than some people think that it is

because I have to learn everybody's part in everything.

So, because... God forbid, Logan gets hurt

or Victoria gets hurt and they do two different sections...

So, in rehearsals yesterday, Victoria was getting a massage

by our physiotherapist, so when we were doing the run-through of

the show, there was a spot missing, therefore I had to fill in for her.

Which is kind of scary but it was fun, it was cool being on the stage.

# Everybody, lose control

# Everybody, lose control

# This dance is on fire and we own the world. #

Bowling was a lot of fun last night.

I never went bowling with any of the cast members,

so it was cool to just have fun and just unwind and just go bowling.

It was funny, because I was expecting the big bowling balls

with the three holes, they're like ten pounds.

We walk in, the balls are like this big and we were like, "Oh."

I'm not the best bowler.

I'll be honest with you, man, I kind of suck at bowling

but it was fun, it kind of just made us feel like a family.

SHE SCREAMS

I got one!

THEY CHEER

We're gone for two months and we've never gone for this long

period of time, so maybe someone will get homesick.

I mean, maybe I will get homesick.

I'm going to miss my sister, I think, the most

because I live with her and being away for nine weeks is going

to be crazy hard just because I usually see her almost every

day and I always tell her about my day and stuff like that.

I'm definitely going to miss my mom and my dad. They've always

been my biggest supporters, front row to every dance show I've ever

done, so it will be hard to not have them in the audience for every show.

I mean, I spend every living, breathing moment with my mom

and I know she's feeling it too.

I've already called my mother probably about twice already.

I don't go to sleep unless I call my mom.

She just helps me sleep at night, to know that she's still out there

somewhere. Just not with me.

There's going to be some time where I'll definitely really,

really miss my family.

They know I love them and, I mean, smartphones, FaceTime,

we've got texting. We're good.

I won. So it was guys versus guys and it was girls versus girls.

I won two times in a row.

The two games that we played, I was number one both times,

so I'm really happy about that.

Injuries are constant. It's a thing, it's going to happen. It really is.

You'll have like maybe a pain in your ankle or in your shoulder

but we have our massage therapist and she is incredible.

She somehow, like, massages the injury out of your body.

In my solo, yes, I did... I did hurt my chin a couple times.

They love the spider. Every single time I do it

I feel like it goes quiet like, they're like, "Ohhh."

I'm like, "I hope that's a good thing."

In Jordan's solo, she does a lot of salsa,

so we'll all go back and salsa dance with each other, look at her

and she looks over in the solo, so she can see us right in the wing.

We mess around with each other, you know.

Competing with the boys is always a big thing for me. You know?

Because they do their flips and so on but I have my flip, so...

I guarantee you, if I told Jordan to become a break dancer,

she'd be full-out battling, B-boys. Like, she's crazy like that.

Yeah, bring it, boys, eugh!

# Little princess got you running in circles

# Again, you know it's me

# And now you look like you're living in a circus

# Oh, I know you'll see

# Come here and show me all your moves

# The way you bump and grove

# I want to feel what you feel when you're on the floor

# Babe, he's got you running round and now you're falling up and down

# I can't let you see until I know what's going on and on

AND THE BEAT KICKS IN

# Want you to want me like I want you

# Cos I know what to do

# I bet you can't survive and here I'm more...

# Uh-uh-uh-oh, uh-uh-uh-oh

# Uh-uh-uh-oh, uh-uh-uh-oh

# Little princess

# Got you running in circles

# Again, you know it's me

# And now you look like you're living in a circus

# Oh, I know you'll see

# You'll see, you'll see you'll see, see, see, see... #

CHEERING

# Come on and take a chance and see

# Where is it now? Where is it now?

# Where is it now?

# Where is it now? #

APPLAUSE

-Done!

-45 more to go.

-27 more cities.

# From the first time that I saw you

# There was something that took me by surprise

# And then I fell

# Oh, yeah, I fell for you...#

On the bus, you're living very closely with all these people.

There's the front living room.

You know, we've got a couple of couches and a TV.

-We've got a fridge here, fridge here.

-Freezer.

-Microwave.

Yeah, thermostat, you need that.

We all have our own bunks and then we have the...

Tiny little bunks to just kind of lay in your coffin.

So we've got three here, boom, one, two, three.

On each side, three, three, so it's three, six,

nine, twelve people can fit in this bus.

-It gets kind of tight here but we only ever really sleep here.

-Yeah.

You know what?

-The thing about the coffins is...

-We're calling them coffins!

..that is your own space. You know what I mean?

So if you want it messy, that's fine,

cos that's the only space that's yours.

Much more comfortable than you would think.

Actually, believe it or not. Hey, are we in the back?

The back living room also has couches and a TV, so...

-It's not that bad.

-Yeah.

Boom, boom. We make it rain in here.

So here is our back lounge.

This is usually where the guys kind of hang out.

This is where we have, like, group movies.

-Lots of movies.

-Yeah.

-Every night, movies, movies, movies.

Oh, my gosh.

What I find difficult is like not having a private space.

Like, I like to read my book before I go to sleep but

there's always so much happening, people are watching movies.

The boys usually stay up late

and talk like either in the back room of the bus or the front room.

-There's been one, a couple...

-I mean, you know what?

..moments where we've been up too late

-and we've been kind of loud but...

-Yeah, yeah.

So, I mean, we've had to tell them to be quiet a few times.

Sometimes we'll be up at like, I don't know, really late

and the girls are trying to go to bed and we're just laughing.

Like the most energy, just cracking jokes.

Turn the lights down, can you guys keep it down?

How are you feeling? Are you blue?

-Or orange?

-Hmm.

When all three guys are together, we get on a certain, like, speed,

I guess. It doesn't stop.

We just get a lot of testosterone. We just need to

be like moving and cracking jokes.

I do have an older brother,

so I know what it's like to be around that teto...

-Excuse me, I can't say it.

-Testosterone.

-Isaac likes to sleep back here...

-Yeah.

-..for some reason.

Isaac sleeps until about 3.30 every day.

This guy will sleep in. When I say sleep in, it's like IN.

He's IN a coffin, like, literally.

This is my favourite part of the whole bus. This is the washroom.

-Luckily, there's been no stenches.

-There's been no stenches, actually.

-That is crazy.

-It's pretty small.

But, you know, we make it work.

-Maybe the girls have a different opinion but...

-Yeah.

There's no showers on the bus, so we've got to shower here

and we take turns. Whoo!

So whoever's the smelliest, they go first.

# Prime time, my time

# Turn it up... #

Where's my mascara?

It's kind of just been like a massive slumber party

with the whole cast cos we've been living together on the same bus.

Jordan takes the most body showers. The most.

And does not wash her hair, so...

I don't want to damage it.

-Jordan, cleanliness is key.

-Can you guys stop arguing?

I'm trying to do my hair.

We've never really had that moment where

we're like yelling at each other.

If there's something we want to talk about we bring it up

and we work through it.

Guess what? Tonight's the night I'm washing my hair.

Whoo!

Whoo! Jordan!

We definitely have become closer, believe it or not,

the amount of time that we spend together has really affected us.

They truly, truly are like my brothers and sisters now.

If they weren't before, now they for sure are.

The trio that we do... Well, at first, it was actually four of us.

It was myself, Zac, Trevor and Isaac but Zac's not on the tour,

so we made it into a trio, it's called Never Get Lost

and it was choreographed by Luther Brown.

Shoot, shoot, and then you're going to bring it in.

You've got to really like control that, bring it in.

Stupid question, do we look at that?

Look at that. That's like the power is coming out of that chest.

-You feel me?

-The trio is a good number for us.

We like to have a number with just the guys but Luther Brown,

he's a huge hip-hop choreographer, so we love to perform it

for that reason because he uses different choreography for us.

The thing about this is, if it feels good, trust me, it's going

-to look good.

-Yeah.

-Yes.

If it feels whack, you know what that looks like.

All of us kind of really wanted to work with him and, you know,

they made it happen, so it was great to get to experience that, for sure.

-Hello, everyone.

-Hello.

-Hey, guys.

On stage, I love speaking on the mic. I love that part of the show.

It's different for us.

We haven't really done, ever, performances on stages before

and we've never really talked on a mic before, really,

so that, I think, is probably my favourite moment of the show.

They were so good.

-So good.

-They were great but, erm...

I mean, I know I'm not a tricker, per se

-but I've been working on this trick for like the past year.

-OK...

And I think it's going to top every one of the tricks that they just

-did on the stage, so...

-Really?

-Wow.

Well, audience, do you want to see Brittany Raymond's new trick?

CHEERING

Ready, Britt?

Everyone, whoo, Brittany!

I was actually surprised when you came out with that front roll.

-My trick is amazing.

-That was insane.

-Yeah...

-I didn't expect that from you, man.

-I'm so...

You killed that.

Wait, wait, wait.

What just happened?

'Since the characters in the show are so competitive,

'we thought it would be fun to have the boys get

'upset at Brittany's somersault and start a competition.'

THEY ARGUE

Settle down.

Take a moment.

Audience, why don't we settle this with a friendly trick-off?

CHEERING

Whoa!

Audience, did you see that? Did you see the height that he got?

How great is that?

Thanks for warming up the stage.

Whoo!

Tell me he doesn't have springs in his jeans!

Can you please show them how it's done?

That's right. Trevor, everybody.

Guys, I've got to be honest.

-It's kind of a close call.

-What?

-What do you mean?

-Trevor, sorry.

OK, OK, I have another idea.

If you guys are up for it, what do you say to another round?

-OK.

-Yeah.

Oh, my gosh! Do you see that?

-OK, thank you.

-I'm amazed, amazed.

OK. Lamar? Lamar!

Whoo!

OK, Brittany, Brittany.

-Should I just wrap this up?

-Can you please wrap this up, Trevor?

Come on.

Give it up, give it up.

That is what I'm talking about.

I think it's pretty clear who wins.

Guys, you guys are incredible.

-Amazing.

-Yeah, they're kind of really good.

OK, ladies, can we huddle over there to discuss?

We're just going to talk about this for a minute.

Guys, guys, you guys over here, who do you think won?

Me, right?

-CHEERING

-Yes!

Let's just be honest, guys, who do you think won? Let me hear it.

CHEERING

-Whoo! Hear that!

-OK, OK, OK, OK.

Come on, really? Left side, who won?

CHEERING

I think it's pretty clear who the winner is.

Yeah, I know. It's me.

OK, boys, I think we have a winner.

It's a tough call.

It was a very tough call. Logan, can you please take it away?

Drumroll please, Jordan Clark.

Brittany Raymond, is our winner, her front roll was just amazing.

I worked so hard on that.

'It's so funny, because there was one show where

'I actually did the front roll on the stage'

and, like, I actually hurt my neck. It's hard.

-Actually, like...

-It's hard.

-Like, I bruised my neck.

-Not everyone can do it.

-I guess not.

Congratulations as well, but, actually, audience, I think

we're going to show them how it's done.

-Is that OK?

-CHEERING

I love this dance.

I was so excited because it's, like, my favourite dance in,

like, seeing it.

I remember watching and being, like, "Oh, I want to do it",

-and then I got to do it.

-I mean, yeah, it is a lot of fun.

There is a lot of head-whipping.

Yeah, I mean, you get some strains in the neck. So, um...

I mean, I actually texted Jordan one day and I was like,

"I think I might have whiplash."

She's like, "I think I have a concussion." I'm like, "From what?"

She was like, "Our trio." I was like, "Did you hit your head?"

She was like, "I don't know, the amount of head whips

"that are happening, I'm pretty sure I have a concussion.

"I can't see straight." I'm like, "Are you OK?"

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

So Lamar and I get to do a hip-hop / ballet mashup duet.

Yeah, it's just, like, a blend of who I am as a dancer

and who Lamar is as a dancer. Then we come together.

-We kind of just make...

-Do a dance.

-Make a dance.

It came from season one when Daniel and I,

we had a duet where we had to combine ballet and hip-hop.

You are going to choreograph a ballet routine for me,

and I am going to choreograph a hip-hop routine for you.

We actually got to do it on the mall tour which we did last year, so we

kind of went off of what Lamar and Brennan did,

but we made it more fit for us.

-It's a bigger version of what we did on the mall tour.

-Yeah.

What we do in the show.

I don't have very many tricks under my belt,

but we do do synchronised backhand springs. It's very scary for me.

I do not like flipping, I do not like going backwards

and not knowing where my hands are going. I don't like it.

-But I'm getting better at it.

-She does it every single show.

She does it every single show, and she hits it perfectly.

Ballet and hip-hop are two completely opposite dances.

It's two different worlds. It's like Vancouver and St John's.

-It's like two different ends of the spectrum.

-Opposite ends.

Yeah, so it's cool to kind of showcase that in the same number.

Yeah.

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

My favourite dance is called Smile At The End Of The World.

I guess I just love the musicality in it, just the accents they hit

and the swag of the choreography, the way it feels on your body.

It just feels like one of those dances you can kind of chill

and do some nice choreo without having to

worry about lots of tricks and things like that.

That's the dance I do that lift with Jordan.

I guess I don't really partner with anybody but Isaac,

and we do some pretty cool lifts.

It looks like I'm just literally picking her up with one arm

and launching her like that, but with partnering,

there's always technique to it and all that.

I always feel pretty cool, and secretly I make faces at Trevor

and Brittany and Vic when they come in, because no-one can see my face.

I'm like...

They just laugh. It's a good time. These are the secrets.

This is behind the scenes. Behind the behind the scenes.

Mm-hmm.

My daily routine is usually wake up, eat some breakfast

and then chill through the day.

I try and keep it, like, super normal through the day -

like, check my e-mails, catch up on everything outside of the tour.

If we have time before the show, we'll go, like, for a walk,

to a mall, like, to watch a movie or something like that,

just to get out of the venue and to experience fresh air.

But after that, we'll just come in and the girls will do their make-up

and the boys kind of just do whatever they want to do.

Then usually we go on the stage at around 4.

Then headspace goes into the show, "Let's do this, let's have fun."

Then we do, like, a mic check.

What's up, Victoria?!

A little stage rehearsal, get used to the space.

Then we always do a huddle before a show, always.

-ALL:

-One, two three - let's dance!

It happens pretty quickly.

Before we know it, we're on stage performing

and then we're on the bus heading to the next city. It all goes by.

Yeah, our days are literally just a flash.

-Let's go to bed.

-Pizza first, pizza first.

Pizza and then bed, because we have two more shows.

Pizza!

Whoo!

There's been so many cities I can't even remember where exactly

these things happen.

Well, we've done the show.... I don't know where...

We're travelling every single day,

and I can't remember which one is which.

There were times when I'd wake up on the bus, get off the bus,

get into the venue, not know what city I'm in, what time zone it is.

-Where are we? Oh, OK, that's where we are.

-What day is it?

When we talk about Montreal, I'm like,

"Wait, which one was Montreal?"

I don't remember that.

-We have to, like, say...

-Was that the one with the two...

-Yes, the two theatres.

-Oh!

-See? Like that.

Got it.

# Let's go out to see... #

Luckily, we have gotten some chances

to actually go out into the cities that we're in

and see some of the things that the city has to offer.

-OK, what do you guys want to do?

-Let's all go to the mall.

Let's go to the mall, let's go out and go to a movie.

Let's all go, you know, to dinner.

It was really cool for me, personally,

to kind of be in a place where I've never personally done a show before.

I never did a show in Montreal.

To go to Montreal, people that talk a completely different language,

to go to the show and understand what we're saying

and laugh at our jokes, you know,

I think Montreal was definitely one of my favourite ones for sure.

-Kitchener was huge.

-Vancouver.

-Saskatoon was huge.

-London was huge.

-London was huge.

-Red Deer.

-Red Deer.

-Sudbury.

-Sudbury.

-Medicine Hat.

-Medicine Hat, yeah.

Winnipeg. Was it Winnipeg? No, Saskatoon.

Saskatoon.

-Vancouver was amazing.

-Vancouver was incredible.

I'll probably always remember Vancouver.

Vancouver was beautiful.

Same with Banff. Banff, that was insane.

-Banff was crazy.

-Yeah, that was beautiful.

It's nice to have a day off and actually just realise

where you are, you know what I mean?

What's up?!

CHEERING

You know, I think we can all agree

that we absolutely love our fans so much. We love you guys.

We get a lot of questions over social media,

so we picked a few and we're going to get right to it.

Here we go.

Our first question - if you could have one superpower,

what would it be, Jordan?

Oh, gosh.

If I could have one superpower,

I would want to be able to turn into a mermaid.

LAUGHTER

You know? Do a little mermaid dance.

I've been working on it. I've been working on it.

But, Trev, what's your superpower?

Superpower? Um, I would want super strength, straight up.

I would want to pick up cars and stuff.

What about you, Isaac?

I want the power to fly.

CHEERING

It didn't work that time. Usually it does.

Usually I just kind of take off.

Next question - what's your favourite dance move? Trevor?

Yo, I like the running man.

I think everyone needs to answer this. Right?

Everybody needs to answer it. All right, Jordan,

what's your favourite dance move?

Well, I'm sorry to take this away from Vic,

but what's Victoria's favourite dance move?

CROWD RESPONDS

So Victoria and I are hair whip sisters. I think you should do it.

-Yeah!

-You know, it's always good to just do one hair whip,

then you've got to give it the look.

When the hair is not in your face.

Brittany, what's your favourite?

I've got hair in my face.

Um, my favourite dance move. Mine is a little weird, so bear with me.

It's two body rolls, and on the second one you

throw your arms down, so you go roll, throw, roll throw.

Then, as you do it, you have to do, like, a really weird,

ugly face with it.

So it looks like this.

CHEERING

Yeah, that's my favourite dance move.

Well, my dad is my number one fan, so he likes to think

he taught me everything that I know, but he really can't dance at all.

The only move he can really do is "raise the roof"

so that's my favourite too.

What about you?

My favourite dance move is the Carlton.

Do it, do it, do it!

CHEERING

Yes! That is my favourite move, I absolutely love that move.

Reason why is because you can pull it out anywhere

and people will laugh at you.

There it is, the Carlton, everyone.

Logan?

I'm a fan of the ponche.

Almost. You were really close, buddy. You were almost there.

And he's the calmest member. He's the calmest.

-I think I just tore my hip.

-You good?

Yeah, I'm good, I'm good. I'm kidding. I'm kidding.

Really took it that far.

What about you, Isaac?

OK, my favourite dance move, it's very artistic.

There's a lot of back-story behind it that inspires me to do the move.

It's called the pizza dance.

Here, I'll show you.

Five, six, seven, eight.

Serve the pizza. Serve the pizza. Serve the pizza. Serve the pizza.

BEATBOXING

Serve it up, serve it up!

CHEERING

So Isaac and I have been doing this duet for a couple of years now.

So the name of the song is Inside Out.

It's actually been playing on the radio, apparently, a couple times.

-Yeah.

-Which is crazy.

-That's crazy.

A couple of people told me that they heard our duet song on the radio.

I was like, "What?!"

I think for me, personally, just being a guy dancer,

it's nice to do some lifts.

And I love being lifted. It's so much fun. It's awesome.

You're like flying in the air.

That's probably my favourite as well.

Even if we are in the middle of the lift and it's not exactly

where it needs to be,

we'll always find a way to make sure it's right by the end of the lift.

I don't think anything has ever gone too wrong, knock on wood.

Even if the girl messes up, it's still the guy's fault.

It is always the guy's fault.

It is your responsibility to make sure the lift goes right,

so no matter what, you get her up there.

Isaac and I are really good friends. I feel like...

Isaac and I just have these jokes that we just take to the next level,

so basically before we go on stage...

It's either a really serious talk

or it's a really funny laughing session that we have.

We're just really silly together.

We have that sort of chemistry on stage

where it's good to work with each other.

-Yeah.

-Yeah.

-We like working with each other.

-Yeah.

CHEERING

SONG: Inside Out

# Bang bang

# The gun rang in my head again

# The light, it shines

# Nobody sees it

# A bird circling over my head yet

# The pitter patter

# It draws my halo

# Here your light is a ghost

# On my mind, you weigh the most

# Like a country at war

# Trading towns, keeping score... #

CHEERING

# Cracks in the glass when you're moving too fast

# And the time will turn inside out

# The moral isn't lost on me

# I know I'll never see the light

# If I was brave, if I was stronger

# Would you hold the candle longer?

# If I burned it to the ground

# If I fall, do I make a sound?

# I can see your head in the crowd like a soul through the clouds

# You're always turning me inside out

# Gonna fall through the cracks in the glass

# When you're moving too fast

# And the time will turn inside out

# The moral isn't lost on me

# I know I'll never see the light. #

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

My point solo is tiresome just because it's in the second act and

it's the first number, then right after that, I have my duet with Trev

and the finale, so I'm kind of like doing it so many times.

Especially on point, it's very difficult especially

because I haven't really been training in point as much,

but it's really, really fun and it's kind of awesome to do

something different because it's not as upbeat as the rest of the show.

It's actually a more intense number,

so it's kind of cool to have that contrast.

I'm a little nervous for my point solo, to be honest,

just because the stage is a little bit slippery.

I have this resin, though.

It's this rock stuff that you put in a container,

then you crush it and it makes your point shoes nice and sticky

so that you don't slide all over the stage, but still nervous cos,

you know, I haven't done it full out too many times,

but it should be good. Fingers crossed.

CHEERING

# So this is how it ends

# No worlds left to avenge

# All the talk of fire and brimstone has gone

# And now we make amends

# And all the talk of worlds we have to conquer

# We will fight again

# When the war is over

# Don't take enemies

# Don't take enemies for friends

# When the war is over

# When the war is over

# When the war is over

# When the war is over

# When the war is over

# When the war is over. #

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

The little solo I have, it starts the duet I have with Brittany,

another dance that we did at nationals.

I was given a little bit of freedom with that solo,

so I did the choreography for that.

I took a little break-dancing approach.

I thought it would be a cool moment to do a lot of floor work and stuff.

Hey. What are you doing?

I'm in the middle of an interview.

You're doing an interview without me?

Oh, like you tried to do the solo without me. OK.

We're going to just join in there.

What are we talking about?

-OFF-SCREEN:

-Your dance together.

Oh! Our dance. It's great, I love it.

He was talking about how much he loved the solo part.

My favourite part is when I come into the dance.

We were just talking about how much he loved the solo part.

Yeah, it's really awesome, because, like, when I come in,

fans don't expect it, so they just come out of nowhere.

It's the best. Like, they love it, cos, you know.

They love James, but James and Riley together is like...

-They get upset at that part.

-No, they love it.

-Have you ever dropped Brittany?

-Yes!

-No, I haven't.

-He did it once.

-I have never actually dropped you.

-I'm kidding.

-Don't lie.

-He actually hasn't.

This is truthful here.

We were doing a lift and I had to lean into it.

He literally didn't hold me at all. I just fell on the ground.

Oh, yeah. But, no, no, that was because

we were in the middle of choreography.

We were like, flowing, flowing. She was like, "Oh, yeah, boom."

-I was like, "What?"

-We were in it. We were doing it.

No, we weren't doing it full out. But you went for it.

We were. We were doing it.

He doesn't know what he's talking about.

What's your favourite part of the duet?

I actually kind of like one of the lifts that we do.

-Which one? That one?

-Yeah.

It's the last one, it's really, really hard,

so when it's done, it's like...

"Yes, we did it."

Right now, I'm practising my solo for Oxygen.

Oxygen was originally Isaac's solo song for season two.

SONG: Oxygen

But they gave it to me because they want to see what

I can do with the song and the dubstep-y feel to the music.

Depending on the city, I'll still perform the solo.

We kind of switch on and off depending on, you know,

if maybe Lamar's ankle hurts or my hip hurts today.

You know, we'll kind of tag on and off of who does the solo.

Isaac is all about spins, jumps, turns, legs,

whereas I have a much more street, hip-hop flavour when I dance.

So everyone kind of has their own, kind of, certain style.

Now it's my turn to bring my style to that stage.

You'll be able to do it.

'Lamar and I, we do a lot of choreography together,

'so when one of us has a piece to do,'

we like to just help each other, cos we get inspired by each other.

We have, like, two really different styles,

but when we collab them, we can work so fast.

He's just doing his solo just now,

I thought I' just come up and help him.

We get it done so quick. Plus, it's fun.

It's great working with Trevor.

We really excel in working together, you know?

That's why people love The Next Step,

because of how we come together.

-Hey.

-Yeah.

SONG: Oxygen

# Oh, I just can't complain

# I see the rain and watch my problem gets washed away

# Oh, the same day, same routine

# Oh, I just can't complain

# I see the rain and watch my problems get washed away

# Oh, the same day same routine

# All I need is just a little bit of oxygen. #

APPLAUSE

'You don't ever get to see us teach.'

-Both Isaac and I teach all the time.

-Yeah.

And it's something we really enjoy doing, so it's fun to go

all across Canada and teach everyone steps that everyone can do.

All right, you guys have been such an incredible audience

all night watching us dance.

Now it's time for you guys to get up and on your feet and dance with us.

-A lot of the parents are very hesitant.

-Yes.

You can see them, so I come in on the mic and I'm like,

"That means moms, that means dads..."

That means grandmas, grandpas, uncles, aunts, brothers and sisters.

Everyone on your feet, let's gooo!

'A lot of the cities, there will be parents that won't

'and they'll just sit there and let their kids do it.

'I saw a few parents sitting down and I was like,'

"Come on, guys," and instantly they were like, "All right, fine,"

and they stood up right away.

We are lucky enough to have the leader of the TNS Spirit Squad,

Miss Jennie Pappas.

Give her a hand.

And she was lucky enough to get us

two of the TNS Spirit Squad team-mates...

Can I have Victoria and Logan out on the stage?

We come out and we help...

-We assist them.

-It's pretty awesome.

Basically so the kids can, like, mimic us,

so if we go left, they go right.

The first move, we start with this arm

and all we're doing is pulling down and then we push down.

'Having them up there, it just gives us, like, a second...'

If we don't have to do this move, we can just watch and point at them.

Dougie and Dougie and Dougie and Dougie. Yes!

'Any time that everyone is just excited to dance with us'

is awesome and there so many people who don't dance

that come to see the show. Like, you don't have to be a dancer

to learn the steps that we're doing.

And now the fourth move in my section, OK,

it's very, very important, OK? It's my favourite dance move.

Do you guys remember what my favourite dance move is?

AUDIENCE CHEERS

Yeah, we're doing the pizza dance!

So we just Dougie-d, here we go. Serve the pizza, serve the pizza.

Is it Canadian pizza? Or Hawaiian pizza?

Are you going to add green peppers to it? Maybe add some bacon?

-Have a creamy garlic dipping sauce?

-Isaac!

Every time he gets super excited about the pizza dance

and then we get distracted, you get hungry...

-It's not cool!

-I'm sorry I'm hungry.

'Everyone wants to join in. I think it's, like, the first time'

where we kind of break the wall of dancers and audience

and it's the first time we get to be, like, with the audience

for something, which is really cool.

All right, DJ Junior, spin that track. Five, six, seven, eight.

'The pizza dance is going down in history, I feel it!'

It's going viral. It's happening.

The fans have been insane.

-FAN:

-We love The Next Step!

Every show, you feel the different energy that they give us.

It's just crazy, the energy that our fans have.

Everyone is just so excited to see us.

It so interesting going from city to city to see what our fan base is.

In every city we go to, there's the same amount of screams

and the same amount of appreciation.

CROWD ROARS

I can't even describe it.

It's so crazy that 3,000 people feel the same as, you know,

the 100 or 200 people.

Even in some cities, like, they're quieter

but you can tell that they appreciate us more.

Like, they are watching us and they are so into us, like this.

They are so intrigued. It's the most amazing thing.

I remember specifically my solo, I'd go into this one part

and I stay at this one corner and this one little girl was just...

staring, so I was like...

And she...just kind of had a moment like...

-"Oh, you waved to me?!"

-"Hi, hey, how's it going?"

You know, and that's just really cool.

It's really awesome just for them to see

and almost feel like they've met us because we are closer to them.

What's up, Saint John!

We're not on a TV, we're right there in front of them and for us

to see them and them to see us is just a really awesome connection.

It's really cool.

-Hi! What's your name?

-I like your hair.

-Oh, thank you!

What's your name? Oh, we're taking a photo? OK.

Hi, how are you guys? I'm Jordan. Nice to meet you.

And what's your name? Sorry, I missed it. Brie?

'Usually we don't leave the venue until, like, 11:30.'

-Yeah, we leave later.

-Yeah.

The fans have been waiting outside the venue sometimes near our bus

and we go out and we get to see them and actually talk to them and take

-pictures with them and stuff. That's been pretty crazy.

-Yeah.

And sometimes they even write on our bus.

Yeah, if the bus is dirty cos the bus is really dirty,

-they'll write, like...notes.

-"I heart Michelle, I heart Amanda."

-Stuff like that.

-It's really cute.

You guys have any questions or anything?

Anything that you've been dying to ask?

Want to come home with me?

Yeah, I mean, can I get a drive? We haven't slept in a real bed

-for a while.

-Yeah.

-We just slept in a real bed last night.

A real bed would be really nice.

'Our first show, the lights came up and it was just so large and

'enormous and I was so taken aback by it and I came off the stage

'and...could barely breathe because of the effects that they put on us

'and our tour manager, she was like, "Are you OK?" I was like...'

"Just, it's all good, I'm not going to cry, that was amazing!"

I remember when we were in Montreal, we were walking to our buses

and there were a couple of fans waiting and I was like, "Hold on...

"It's been, like, three hours since the show."

And they were waiting outside the whole time, so it kind of

blew me away that people will actually wait that long to meet us.

That's why I love this tour so much, that's why I am loving

performing on stage, because you actually get to see the fans,

you get to watch them enjoying it, you see the reactions and stuff.

It becomes so much more real.

Yes, they are watching us dance, but, in the same way,

we're watching the fans, too. We're watching them react,

we're watching them enjoy it, which is really special.
