The Academy
Every dancer dreams. Where they land, only time will tell. At the Ngoma School, we strive to provide dancers with a strong foundation for success – stage, backstage, back office, or beyond. Students learn through core classes in classical ballet, musical theater and contemporary jazz, modern (Horton), stretch/condition, boy’s/men’s class, pre-pointe/pointe, and ballet variation; electives such as African, Hip Hop, acting, and choreography are provided through workshops and summer programming.
Currently serving students as young as seven 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.
In the fall of 2019, The Ngoma School launches its new school-year initiatives The Academy and Early Steps.
The Academy offers an annual dance programming with diverse class offerings, developed around a balanced curriculum reviewed by Faculty and its Director Shawn Short, MFA.
Additionally, selected students have the opportunity to perform in concert with our nationally-recognized contemporary ballet Dissonance Dance Theatre.
