Help me compete to become the Dance Icon and appear in a music video with Ciara and win $20,000!
I am a dynamic dancer who believes in storytelling through movement and facial expressions. Each performance is an opportunity to connect with the audience on a deeper level. My dance style is a blend of hip hop and Afro styles, which allows me to bring both energy and emotion to the stage. I love how these styles let me express myself freely while drawing from powerful cultural roots and rhythmic complexity.
Being in Ciara's music video would be a dream come true! It’d be an honor to contribute my style to a project that inspires millions. It’d show me that hard work and passion pay off, and I’d probably be dancing around my house to her music for months, which I already do! It’d boost my career, my confidence, and take my creativity to new heights. A moment like that would be game-changing, unforgettable, and truly life-altering.
With $20,000, I’d start by paying off my debt to relieve some financial pressure. Then, I’d make sure my family is supported, because they’ve always had my back. The rest would go toward finally launching my nonprofit aimed at tackling homelessness—something I’m deeply passionate about. It’s a cause that means so much to me, and having the resources to start making a difference would be life-changing, both for me and the people I want to help.
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!
