Tell us about your dance style or inspiration:

My dance style is very power and energy-driven. I have always found myself more drawn to jazz, hip hop, and pom styles. I draw a lot of inspiration from my teammates and the passion you feel on the floor when you're out there with people who share your passion. I also take a lot of inspiration from artists and choreographers who push the limits and step away from the norm. For me, dance was never just about hitting the moves. It has always been about making an impact on your audience.

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

Being in Ciara's music video would be a transformative experience for me both personally and professionally. Getting to work with top choreographers and dancers would push me to excel in my skills and step outside of my comfort zone. It would boost my confidence and provide me with an opportunity to kick- start my professional career and give me insight into the dance world outside of dance team. Getting an opportunity like this would be life-changing and an amazing way to start in the industry.

What would you do with the $20,000?

With $20,000 I would continue to grow my experience and knowledge in the pro-dance world. I would use the money to continue learning from top choreographers and also to grow my dance portfolio. With the rest of the money, I would help out my community. Recently my childhood dance studio closed due to an up in rent so I would find a way to get that back in business. I would love to see those little girls, who I was just like, have a safe space to learn an art form that can truly transform them.

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!
