Tell us about your dance style or inspiration:

My style is a mix of 2000s R&B vibes, hip-hop, and pop performance. Ciara has been a huge inspiration — her fluidity, musicality, confidence, and stage presence shaped how I move. I blend nostalgia with my own style to make every routine HIT 🤌🏽

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

Being from Atlanta, Ciara’s journey has always felt personal. I grew up learning her routines, recreating her moves, and even had a dance cover of hers hit over 1M views. Dancing alongside her would be a full-circle moment and proof that the dreams I’ve worked for are so real ❤️

What would you do with the $20,000?

I’d invest in my dance career—creating better content, producing high-quality dance visuals, and pushing my creativity further. I’d also use it to open doors for other dancers and inspire the next generations to come. Essentially I’ll be using this opportunity as a stepping stone and to be an inspiration to others as Ciara is to me ✨

8 Dancers

And One Big Break!

The search is on for eight dancers to be flown to a live judged event in Phoenix, AZ, showcasing their skills to Ciara and her choreographer, Jamaica Craft. One will be chosen to appear in her upcoming music video and win $20,000!
