Help me compete to become the Dance Icon and appear in a music video with Ciara and win $20,000!

The first cut is on Thursday the 13th of February at 7PM PST

Tell us about your dance style or inspiration:

I do all genres of dance, my favorites are hip-hop, jazz, lyrical and tap; but my number one favorite genre is tap. What really inspired me was going to all of these dance competitions doing all of these different workshops and they pick the same type of dancers that are small and petite but I’m tall and very strong and for some reason you’re always put in the back of a dance because of that. That inspired me to always walk to the front whenever it was my time to shine.

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

This would be so life changing. I have been dancing since the age of 2. I have been competing since I was 5 and all I ever wanted to be was a professional dancer. Being in Ciara’s video will help me make it to the next level!

What would you do with the $20,000?

With the $20,000, I will be able to help my parents pay for my college. $5000 out of the $20000 I will give to someone else to help them pay for their college.

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!
