Official TV Episode Application: Serious Applicants Only

This application is ONLY for the dancers in the New York Jets vs. Dallas Cowboys Halftime Show on October 5, 2025 and LA Rams vs Seattle Seahawks on November 16th.  NO outside applicants will be considered.

Legacy Makers Inside Success TV/Women Empower TV will feature Ikonik—and possibly your dancer! 

We’re thrilled to announce that Ikonik has been selected for the upcoming season of “Inside Success,” a groundbreaking series showcasing influential entrepreneurs, industry leaders, and business icons.

This episode will be professionally produced and broadcast on major streaming platforms—including Apple TV, Fire TV, and Roku—offering your studio and dancers national exposure to a wide audience. 

The episode highlights a new way to compete and perform-moving from the ballroom to the national football field-to give dancers real industry experience and unique opportunities.

“Inside Success TV” producers are considering Ikonik for a full potential series, and we hope to launch our own show in the future. While this is not guaranteed, we’re very excited about the possibility!

Selection will be distributed across all categories and is not limited to top-level dancers.  Ikonik is seeking individuals who are energetic, enthusiastic, and display outstanding on-camera presence and passion for the NFL shows.  All dancers, regardless of level, are encouraged to apply- we are looking for personalities that shine on camera.

THE LAUNCH OF OUR NEW YOUTUBE SERIES THEMED, IKONIK AT THE NFL IS BEING CASTED. Dancers not selected for the TV Episode this time, will be the first to be notified of this opportunity when it becomes available.

A Few Important Notes:

 • Ikonik is a national company, not a dance agency.

• We do not offer compensation; TV production application fees cover producer, filming, and production costs. 

• ALL Dancers, whether selected or not,  will receive bureau footage to keep. 

We believe understanding both performance and the business side of dance is essential for true growth.

We are excited to bring this special opportunity to the dance industry!
