The Young Dancer Project

Donation protected
The Y of the USA has now accepted DanceSport into their Social Service system-letting me know what the procedures will be for achieving the ultimate goal- a full bodied start to finish Social to Sport series of programs, ending with DanceSport competitions in professional Sports venues, getting away from the expen$ive hotel competition models...
     The Young Dancer Project is a partnership between the Dance Community, the Social Service NGOs and the Board of Education's AfterSchool Programs, which provide homework assistance, nutrition assistance, and physical fitness to youth ages 4-14 between the hours of 3-6 PM. Study after study has proven that fitness training improves the learning experience.
     Imagine, children of all cultural backgrounds, dancing together, and learning PEACE:
 For this day of giving, November 28, 2017, we ask that you think about this process. During this new push, which has been going on since November 15th, we've got 5 new groups who have been introduced to their YMCA cohorts in areas from Pasadena, Ca. to Minerva, Ohio. Will they all connect and make it work? We don't know, but that in itself is a part of the excitement. 
  In times of uncertainty, effort on the part of new groups can be very high. AfterSchool needs your help to move forward.





Now that we are registering and have our 501(c)3, we have to register in every state, paying filing fees, applying for grants, and seeking local fiscal entities.  See how we put this program together in San Francisco:
Nroman Yee called this program "Mad Hot Ballroom Meets the Coast" and the CID(Council of International Dance)wants it to go worldwide. Help us to get there. We still seek a physician to get our tax-free status as a 501(c)3,  but we can still move forward. The Y of the USA is sold on this program, we have the ability to make it work, all it needs is YOU.
