2025-2026 Virtual Drum Major Coach (Hip-Hop Dance Experience Required)
ORGANIZATION: SoulPhamm Inc
Please visit the new page to apply.

SoulPhamm is recruiting for an experienced hip-hop dancer to join our Coaching Team in support of PHENOM, our new Drum Major Team which will serve between five and seven junior and senior high school boys. A male Coach is strongly preferred so that he can mentor and build a bond with these young men. We will not recruit for this team until the Coach has been identified and onboarded.
This ensemble is slated to be part of our 2025-2026 season with auditions beginning in June. The coach will support the "In-Person Coach" who will start in September, but he will begin virtual practices in mid-July (evenings after 6pm generally work best for students who have summer jobs or summer camp). If the Coach has interest and availability, he can continue with the group throughout the season (which will end in June 2026).
PHENOM will support both our ONYX Drumline (also 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.
After expression of interest, candidates will (a) meet with our Director via Zoom and submit a video of proposed choreography; (b) complete an application; (c) set the schedule for the team; (d) have virtual planning meetings with the Coaching team and begin coaching in mid-July.
A highly creative high school senior with strong hip-hop dance experience or skill is welcome to apply for community service hours.
Thank you for your interest in helping us build something amazing! Nophone calls please.

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.
