Mission and programs · 2024

MUSICOPIA DANCE FOLLOWS THE STANDARDS-BASED CURRICULUM OF THE DANCING CLASSROOMS GLOBAL PROGRAM ESTABLISHED IN 1994 IN NEW YORK CITY BY FOUR-TIME SHOW DANCE WORLD CHAMPION PIERRE DULAINE AND THE AMERICAN BALLROOM THEATER COMPANY,AS SEEN IN THE AWARD-WINNING DOCUMENTARY MAD HOT BALLROOM. THE PRIMARY MUSICOPIA DANCE INITIATIVE IS IN-SCHOOL RESIDENCIES WITH PROFESSIONAL ARTISTS WHO TEACH BALLROOM DANCES (RUMBA, SWING, TANGO, FOXTROT, WALTZ, AND MERENGUE), AND NON-COMPETITIVE DANCES (HEEL-TOE POLKA, THE STOMP, SALSA, AND THE ELECTRIC SLIDE). LESSONS TAKE PLACE DURING THE SCHOOL DAY IN 45-MINUTE SESSIONS TWICE WEEKLY FOR TEN WEEKS. AN ENTIRE FIFTH OR EIGHTH GRADE STUDENT BODY, AND THEIR CLASSROOM TEACHERS, PARTICIPATE. CURRICULUM ASSIGNMENTS OCCUR THROUGHOUT EACH RESIDENCY, WHICH CONNECT THE BALLROOM DANCE EXPERIENCE TO THE STUDENTS PERSONAL AND ACADEMIC LIVES. EACH RESIDENCY CONCLUDES IN A CULMINATING PUBLIC EVENT WHERE ALL STUDENTS DEMONSTRATE THE DANCES THEY LEARNED. SELECT STUDENTS GO ON TO SEMIFINAL COMPETITIONS. WINNERS OF THE SEMIFINALS PARTICIPATE IN THE COLORS OF THE RAINBOW TEAM MATCH FINAL, WITH TEAMS REPRESENTING SCHOOLS THROUGHOUT THE PHILADELPHIA REGION. THE MUSICOPIA DANCE ACADEMY OFFERS STUDENTS WHO HAVE EXPERIENCED A DANCING CLASSROOMS IN-SCHOOL RESIDENCY THE OPPORTUNITY TO ADVANCE THEIR BALLROOM DANCE TRAINING ON SATURDAY MORNINGS WITH PROFESSIONAL TEACHING ARTISTS. CLASSES ARE HELD IN FALL AND SPRING SESSIONS AT A LOCATION IN PHILADELPHIA.

Listed in Part VII

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those. A Schedule J breakdown is as filed: base pay, bonus, other, deferred compensation and nontaxable benefits from this organization, with any from related organizations beside each, and the filer's own total. It is shown with the Part VII listing of the same name on the same return. The form gives no key between the two, so that pairing is ours, and is marked matched by us.

Schedule J

Part I's answers as filed. A line not listed was left unanswered; on lines 1a and 3 that means the box was not checked.
