I am a Dance Icon because dance fuels my creativity and connection, crafting inspiring, powerful moments that resonate on stage or screen.
Help me compete to become the Dance Icon and appear in a music video with Ciara and win $20,000!
K-pop + pop inspire my dance style. I'm in love with the technical movements of intricate K-pop choreography, and the power that pop stars show. I've been dancing for 6 years, and K-pop choreography has changed my life; it brought back my passion for dance. Lee Chaeryeong from ITZY truly inspires me. She is such a strong dancer who looks good in any style. I hope to grow so I can be her level. I watched Tate Mcrea since her start, and seeing her grow in music and dance has brought me strength.
My passion for dance is beaming, but my opportunities are limited. I live in a state where there is little opportunity for the arts. I've been to NYC many times to audition for K-pop companies. I've spent a month in South Korea competing and auditioning. Being in this video would fulfill a part of me that I want to honor. I'd love to be in these videos, I love performing and have little outlet for it in my hometown. Doing this will add an experience to open future options for me as a dancer.
Firstly, I would donate to a reputable charity to give back and support those in need, as I believe it’s my responsibility as someone fortunate enough to do so. Also, I would assist my father with health and living expenses, ensuring he has the care and stability he deserves. As I prepare to attend university this year for Fashion Merchandising, I would use part of the funds to pay for my tuition and campus living expenses, enabling me to fully focus on my education and future.
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!
