“The Foundation is pleased to partner with the Ministry of Health, Environment, Youth Sports & Culture, the George Town Primary School and local dance expertise to promote the positive energies of the youth of Cayman,” said JC Connor, New Self Help Community Foundation chief executive officer. “The young participants age 10 -25 will be invigorated and energized with the combination of teaching and learning styles of these talented instructors.”
The Jazz Ballet Creative Dance workshop has been organized by The New Self-Help Community Foundation, a nonprofit organisation which aims to help teenaged youth develop a sense of self-worth, independence and community spirit. As part of their Project 2012 program, the Foundation is offering a series of training and experience in the arts, including video-documentary production, dance, photography, song writing and poetry.
