I am the next Dance Icon because I present my passion first, positivity, hard work, I love to hype others up - I am ready to hit the stage!
Help me compete to become the Dance Icon and appear in a music video with Ciara and win $20,000!
My inspiration in dance is deeply rooted in the iconic showgirl, Broadway, and Rockettes style which are all about performance and attention to detail. I thrive on performing, always aiming to captivate the audience and ensure they enjoy every moment. The energy of being a backup dancer also excites me! With training in a wide array of dance styles, I’m adaptable and ready to bring my best to any performance, no matter the style or challenge.
Being a part of Ciara's music video would not only be an incredible milestone in my dance career, but it would also bring me one step closer to realizing my dreams and long-term goals. The experience itself would be unforgettable, and the connections I’d make, along with the exposure, could truly be transformative for my future. It’s an opportunity that would elevate my career in ways I’ve always dreamed of.
I’m currently in my fourth year, pursuing my dance degree, and this money would significantly help me cover the investment I’ve made in my professional training. Beyond that, it would be instrumental in launching my dance career outside of Canada—an essential yet costly step in reaching my goals and fulfilling my dreams. This opportunity would not only ease the financial burden but also propel me toward the international stage I aspire to be on.
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!
