CELEBRATING 7 YEARS OF SERVICE!!!

​

The TMJ Dance Project is a 501 (c) 3 nonprofit organization that uses the art of dance or enrich the lives of children and families in historically underserved communities. Our mission is to create cultural dance experiences that impact community outreach, dance in education, affordable training & scholarships, and live dance performances.

 

The TMJ Dance Project serves over 500 families per year through dance programs that impact dance & literacy, social-emotional learning, equitable access and inclusion to quality dance training & facilities, and cultural awareness.

 

The TMJ Dance Project was founded on March 15, 2016 by Terrance M. Johnson. Terrance formed the organization with the intention of being a small collective of professional dance artists that would create project-based dance concerts and dance training workshops for children and families in communities where there was no access or inclusion in the art of dance.

​

The completion of the organization's first project uncovered a need for consistent dance education and training programs in middle and low-income communities, so it was decided that the performing collective would shift into a full-service dance organization that would use the art of dance to make positive impact in middle and low-income communities.
