Lil' Ballerinas
April, 2010 - Tap & Tapas is Groove With Me's Annual Spring Benefit. The Lil' Ballerinas were so excited to perform!

We are currently accepting applications for Volunteer Dance Teachers at Groove With Me, Inc. Groove With Me is a free dance school for girls in East Harlem. At GWM, we engage girls during the idle out-of-school hours when 90% of youth violence occurs; and seeks to decrease teen pregnancy, truancy, crime, violence, prostitution, substance abuse and gang related activity. East Harlem has the highest unmet need for after school programming of any neighborhood in NYC.

Our mission is to provide free classes and performance opportunities to promote leadership, pride, self-confidence, creativity, joy, and discipline they need to confront adversity they face in their daily lives and to empower them to grow into strong and healthy women.

By volunteering you provide:

  • much needed out-of-school time safety
  • arts programming
  • mentoring

Classes are held after school between the hours of 4:00pm-8:00pm Monday through Friday and Saturdays 11:00am-3:00pm.

If you are interested in this opportunity, or for further information please give me a call at 212-987-5910 or reach me via email at angie@groovewithme.org
