Aaron O’Connor

The next Dance Icon needs to be sharp, detail-oriented, and a leader. I feel I really can be that person, if given the chance.

Tell us about your dance style or inspiration:

My dance style is very dynamic. I don’t just learn the choreography, I fully understand inside and out. I establish the intent behind each move, and execute it with force. My inspirations are Jojo Gomez, Kelly Sweeney, and Tate McRae.

How would being in Ciara's music video impact your life?

It’d be a dream come true. Most people in this competition, are older adults that already have something going for them as a career. Me on the other hand, Im waiting to start my career, and this would be an amazing start.

What would you do with the $20,000?

I would put it towards a car or apartment (as I’m newly 18), put some towards a trip to LA so I can make connections on the west coast, and put some of it towards my Nana’s rent as she’s struggling with cancer, and is struggling to afford the roof over her head. It’d mean the world to help her, with the money I earned in such an extravagant way.
