Since then we have reached not only students throughout the country but across the globe. This year we ran the program virtually which has allowed us to provide our services to a broader audience. In 2021 we only want to connect with more students and dance professionals to bring the message of healing through dance all over the world. FDP operates with a dual model: FlexIN is an on-site program for youth in secure detention centers, foster care and other facilities in New York & FlexOUT provides lessons to youth online and in community centers locally and across the globe. It is our hope that students see dance as a form of non-verbal self expression and an outlet for coping with difficult challenges. Our vision (Flex WORLD) is that all inner city kids have the opportunity to use their creative talents to express their story and inspire others to do the same.

They are always shocked and excited to learn more. Its great pride knowing the difference we make in the lives of students who’ve felt they had nobody to turn to and no means for creative self - expression until we pulled up and switched it up for them. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5933bf42d2b85729114a1431/1520002191474-5JO7K1UEBVRW3B3FGNBY/Flea+Headshot.jpg Artists Jermaine Flizzo Clement Flizzo has been dancing for 20 years.
