Ciara’s new visuals for her single “Ecstasy” are pure fire, but it’s the viral Defying Gravity Challenge that has everybody on the timeline moving. From body rolls and hip sways to expert chair placement and deep breaths, social media can’t get enough.

“Ecstasy” is one of the standout tracks from Ciara’s upcoming album, CiCi, set to drop on July 11. The project promises to be the epitome of sensuality, strength, and signature dance moves. So, this challenge is the perfect teaser for what’s to come.

Ciara has been showing off her dance moves since the early 2000s, quickly becoming an icon of movement, music, and style. From the moment we saw her hit that legendary backbend in Goodies, we knew CiCi wasn’t just a singer—she was a full-on performer. With some of the most top-notch choreography in the game, she’s often defied gravity and redefined what Black girl magic looks like on the dance floor.

Now, even after giving birth to four children, Ciara again proves she’s still that girl. In a clip shared on her Instagram and TikTok, she invites fans to “defy gravity” with her, showing off a sensual and athletic move with choreographer Taylor Terry. The instructions? Grab a folding chair, lay your upper body across the top, hands gripping the bottom, and use your core to float midair.

Easy right? Well, for Ciara and Taylor, it is.

Fans everywhere are taking on the challenge, looking to be as effortless and flawless as the singer. From TikTok influencers in heels to gym girls in sweats, everyone is getting in on it.

Even a reportedly 75-year-old grandmother – who stole hearts with her flawless form and fierce attitude – got in the mix. Ciara loves the support, reposting, commenting, and cheering them on.

“This is everything!! Yesss grandma! 🙌🏽,” Ciara commented on @nikkabesnappin’s post celebrating her grandmother.

Ciara reminds us of our inner beauty and confidence with the new furniture-dance challenge. Attitude – and core strength – has no age, size, or limit.

So what are you waiting for? Grab your chair and show the world you can #DefyGravity, too.
