<div>In our 12-year journey, we've witnessed the incredible growth of our young musicians, who have become the pride of Korogocho. They have also showcased their talents in performances and festivals, both locally in Kenya and on international stages. Some of our remarkable graduates are now pursuing their passion at prestigious conservatories such as the Birmingham Conservatory, Berklee College of Music, Alabama State University, and Prague Conservatory.

</div>
<div>In 2019, we expanded our artistic horizons by introducing Ghetto Classics Dance. This exciting dance program operates alongside our renowned music program, fostering an environment where students from both disciplines share spaces, creating opportunities for inspiring multidisciplinary collaborations.

<div>At Ghetto Classics, we believe in more than just teaching music and dance. We cultivate a transformative process where dancers and musicians learn to connect, support, and create together. This uniquely human journey not only encourages perseverance but also culminates in those magical moments when art is born.

</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Hello Palate, founded by Michelle Pesce, is a Nutritional Therapy Practitioner, educator, and health enthusiast who uses a bio-individual approach to functional, holistic nutrition. She joined Joanna in 2020 to augment the dance school's education through nutrition using local food and quarterly lesson plans.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Each quarter, the dancers come back with insightful and meaningful questions about their health. Michelle is "constantly learning along with these dancers how understanding our bodies can support us emotionally and physically in finding our inner rhythms to wellness. In the past three years, their nutritional therapy education focused on the abundance of their ancestral foods and rediscovered the health benefits of organic red palm oil sustainable produced in their country, using old-world fermentation to prepare yogurt and seeing the abundance of local fruit to enjoy, fish and ugali (cornmeal suitable to breakfast porridge).
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>100% of your donations will go towards Ghetto Classic Dance School's continued dance education, ensuring excellent teachers and dance supplies for these talented and dedicated children.
