danceLogic

danceLogic is an innovative program for teen girls combining dance and computer coding. The girls cultivate a well rounded understanding of dance including Hip-hop/ballet/contemporary styles and collaborate to choreograph their own dance pieces.

During the dance class, led by instructors Shanel Edwards and Tyra Jones-Blain, the girls learn dance skills and movement techniques. This is followed by an hour of learning industry standard coding language under the direction of coding instructor Franklyn Athias. who says “I’m helping the girls see that someone, just like them, was able to use Science and Technology to find a very successful career.”
