Young Choreographers Project is committed to empowering young dancers through mentoring and education in choreography and dance composition.

Our goals are to:

(1) Connect young dancers with dance professionals in the community;
(2) Teach young dancers choreography through one-on-one coaching and group instruction;
(3) Enable young dancers to use choreography to express themselves creatively, by giving them an opportunity to create and showcase original dance works;
(4) Provide young dancers the opportunity to showcase the knowledge they have gained through their participation in our programming;
(5) Allow young dancers the opportunity to develop an appreciation of the many forms of dance and dance composition; and
(6) Allow young dancers to gain confidence in their leadership abilities.
