Serving over 200 students annually since 2014, The Ngoma School is emerging as a Washington, DC area dance-school destination for students interested in a professional concert dance career.
Currently serving students as young as five years old, to young adults who received a late start to their professional dance training. Dance classes, workshops, masterclasses, and auditions are facilitated at Univ of Maryland College Park.
We offer two school-year programs: The Academy & The Early Steps Programs. The Academy launched in Fall 2019 and encompasses levels I, II, III. Early Steps program is a flexible program for students needing flexibility with schedule and our activity schedules; classes only provide beginning hip-hop, jazz, and ballet. We also have our summer program, Summer DanceLab, and our trainee program.
We provide pre-professional dance training that informs and encourages the pursuit of post-secondary education, healthy living, mentorship, self-care, and life skill mastery.
The Ngoma School offers programs for students with different levels of ability. School year programs include the highest quality of instruction in ballet, modern, jazz, hip-hop technique, and other electives.
The Ngoma School will close its school year program after Spring 2026, and shifting to an arts education workshop model. Join our mailing list for updates in your area!
