In 2009, Bravo took a small break. Constantly traveling across the country for shoots and auditions was tough. But her hometown hiatus didn't last long. Producers of Nickelodeon's new musical series "Big Time Rush" set up an online audition for her, and within 24 hours, Ciara was on set in Los Angeles."I went to California in the summer and during the school year - I had a lot of auditions," recalls the young actress.

Recognizing that film and television was her calling, Ciara decided to study with renowned American actor and teacher Larry Moss, who had previously worked with Leonardo DiCaprio, Hilary Swank, and other famous performers.
