Ideally (but not required), the Coach should be available for a virtual practice on any evening of their choosing (ideally a 7pm or 8pm start).
ONYX will support both our Drumline (developing this summer) and our hip-hop majorette dance team. The ideal Coach will bring expertise in creating innovative hip-hop choreography and demonstrate the ability to effectively teach students across all skill levels. They must be capable of mastering and instructing HBCU-style drum major choreography, while helping participants refine their choreography execution and cultivate compelling stage presence. As the newest part of our premier performance ensemble, the team frequently participates in events, requiring the Coach to serve as a chaperone, primarily on Saturdays.

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.
