The TMJ Dance Project aims to narrow the opportunity gap in dance which r refers to the ways in which race, ethnicity, socioeconomic status, English proficiency, community wealth, familial situations, or other factors contribute to or perpetuate lower aspirations, achievement, and attainment of skill.
Our major need to achieve this goal is financial resources to provide students with financial-aid for training tuition & fees, and to collaborate community organizations & school districts to implement dance enrichment programs.
