ORGANIZATION: SoulPhamm Inc

This opportunity is for current residents of New Jersey or New York City who have the ability to commute to downtown Newark on Saturdays from 12:45pm to 3:45pm (February to June).

A committed coaching team is needed to support ONYX, the 2024-2025 hip-hop drum major team which is anticipated to draw four to five teens (high school students open to boys/girls). The team will not be recruited for until we have a solid, committed coach in place.

The drum major team is a new addition to our menu of programs which currently includes basketball, cheerleading/stomp & shake, HBCU style majorette dance, sorority and STEM club. This spring we hope to also resurrect our drumline and step team. They will work closely with our hip-hop majorette dance team.

The team would have a hybrid practice schedule. The virtual practice should happen during evening hours (Monday-Friday) and be 45-60 minutes long (coach will select day and time). The in person practice will be on Saturdays from 12:45pm to 3:45pm at our gymnasium location in downtown Newark.

While coaching and drum major experience are not critical, the ability to choreograph hip-hop routines and study HBCU style drum major is vital to the success of the program.

No phone calls please.

About SoulPhamm Inc

Location:

7000 Hadley Road, Suite 1177, South Plainfield, NJ 07080, US

Mission Statement

Our mission is to make a positive difference in the lives of young people by providing unique artistic and athletic experiences and performances, and to assist them in achieving the highest standards of professionalism through the development of discipline, skill, confidence, cooperation, leadership, responsibility and character.

Description

Our vision is to promote virtue, equity, unity, justice, faith, charity and a sense of common purpose and brotherhood among all people with an emphasis on the development and advancement of young people through education, athletics, service and the arts.

SoulPhamm was incorporated as a nonprofit organization in the state of New Jersey on June 25, 2021 and is the "birth-child" of Coach Luis ("Lou") and Dr. Leisa Herrera ("Mz. Doc"). The organization exists to provide training to young people in a variety of sports and performing arts and unique opportunities to display those talents through competition and performance. By integrating mentoring, life skills, opportunities for community service and academic enrichment to the athletic/artistic program, we help make our scholar-athletes as well-rounded as possible, capable of meeting and overcoming any challenges they are faced with. Although Coach Lou passed away suddenly in January 2021, the official launch of SoulPhamm was held on June 26, 2021, which coincided with his birthday weekend. SoulPhamm will recognize its own founding, as well as the achievements of our young people every year on the fourth Saturday of June, as a tribute to the life and legacy of Coach Lou.
