Summer DanceLab
Monday 6/15/2026 – Saturday 7/11/2026
Supporting Our Community Through Change – Deadline March 5th, 2026
After watching the changing political landscape, experiencing the reduction of funding, and parents facing the fear of job security across the region, funds are limited for programming. We wish to discover parent support for our summer programming prior to committing – 40 students minimum.
The program costs the organization approximately $40,000 annually, with Ngoma subsidizing its reduced tuition (retailed at $3,000 per student) and before/after care ($150 a week per student) free to parents. We thank you all for your interest in the summer program that has served the community since 2014.
May you stay safe and prosper, The Ngoma School
Since 2014, Summer DanceLab has provided an opportunity for aspiring 7-young adult dancers to train in a pre-professional dance environment training eight hours a day, from one to four weeks of dance study during the summer. We provide pre-professional dance training that informs and encourages, the pursuit of post-secondary education, healthy living, mentorship, self and life skill mastery. The Summer DanceLab is part of The Ngoma School – the official school of Dissonance Dance Theatre – and is central to our effort to empower a generation of young artists to be the change agents of their community.
