Outreach Motion Express
Motion Express Step Ahead Dance is for Everyone Scholarship DARE Dance America Seniors in Motion
Joy of Motion is funded in part by the
D.C. Commission on the Arts and Humanities,
an agency supported in part by the National
Endowment for the Arts.

Motion Express brings JOMDC's award-winning brand of dance education for free to DC children and teens at their schools, plus field trips to interactive dance concerts at the Atlas Performing Arts Center.

The goal of Motion Express is to provide an entry point to the art of dance by engaging high-risk DC youth, ages 4-18, in dance classes, training, and performances while creating life-long dance enthusiasts and well-rounded citizens. The objectives of Motion Express are to teach students the art of dance, to promote physical activity and encourage healthful choices using dance, and to foster healthy relationship building through the social activities inherent in a dance class setting.
