Sharna Burgess and Antonio Brown head to the fans together during a break from dance practice in Los Angeles on Thursday (March 31).
Team Boomin was back at it the next day, along with Witney Carson and Hayley Erbert, working on their most Memorable Year week routine for Dancing With The Stars.
“I want to tell the story of his most memorable year the right way,” Sharna wrote in her season blog. “He is doing the year he became a father for the first time, to his son Antonio Junior.”
She added, ” I am excited about the concept I have and we will have his son dance in the number with us. I feel this will be a beautiful moment for the two of them.”

The 27-year-old Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver met up with pro partner Sharna Burgess to work on their next dance for Dancing With The Stars — a foxtrot.
The 27-year-old wide receiver for the Pittsburgh Steelers earned 19 points for his Latin Night dance.
“He and I do have a fantastic chemistry, and that will only get better throughout the show,” Sharna wrote in her blog. “But what we do have to work on is his technique, his finesse, and his flow of movement throughout the dancing. We have the foxtrot next week, and I really want to show that we have worked on all those elements by improving his frame and posture.”
After his rumba, Antonio teamed up with iJustine for the DOOM Videogame Tournament at Siren Studios on Tuesday night (March 29) — and WON!

Sharna Burgess playfully sticks out her tongue while arriving at the dance studio in Los Angeles on Saturday afternoon (March 26).
The 30-year-old pro dancer met up with her celeb partner, football player Antonio Brown, to work on their Rumba for Dancing With The Stars.
“Next week, we have the rumba, which is a tough dance for week two,” Sharna wrote in her season blog. “It is a dance where you have to get in each other’s personal space, and Antonio and I are still getting to know each other, so it’s going to be quite a challenge to get in the character and really give the judges the essence of the dance.”
She added, “I think we can rise to that challenge. He is an incredibly hard worker. I’m just excited for the weeks to come with him.”

The two took over the entire ballroom floor with a fun Quickstep set to “Bad Man” by Pitbull feat. Robin Thicke, Joe Perry and Travis Barker. They earned 21 points for their routine.
“I think Antonio and I did a fantastic job for week one. I was incredibly proud of him coming out and performing the way he did,” Sharna wrote in her blog. “He nailed the quickstep for me. It is a very hard dance for week one, and for him to go out there and learn that fast footwork while keeping his frame relatively consistent throughout the number was amazing.”
She added, “Not to mention the million-dollar smile he had the entire time! It was just amazing to be able to dance that with him tonight.”
Sharna is also pictured arriving to practice on Tuesday (March 22) in Los Angeles.
