Tell us about your dance style or inspiration:

I would feel like my dance style would be old school hip hop dance styles that are a vibrant expression of urban culture and creativity. Characterized by energetic moves like breaking, locking, and popping, these styles emphasize rhythm, improvisation, and individuality.My inspiration would be my family and friends showcase skills in cyphers, where they engage in spontaneous battles, pushing each other's creativity to new heights.

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

Being in a dance video can have a profound impact on my life in several ways. But one, it can boost my confidence and self-esteem as I showcase my skills and creativity in front of an audience. The experience of performing can help me overcome stage fright and embrace vulnerability in a supportive environment.

What would you do with the $20,000?

I would use the funds for furthering your education, whether by taking courses, attending workshops, or even pursuing a degree that could enhance my career prospects. Then I would set aside the money as an emergency fund to ensure financial security in case of unexpected expenses. Invest in personal growth activities like coaching, fitness programs, or creative workshops that enhance your skills and well-being.
