The Main Event: The 4th Annual Capitol Movement Project
It is hard to believe that we have been producing CMP for four years now...
but it is true!

Part of CMI's mission is to create opportunities for DC area dancers and artists to train, dance, and perform with top choreographers in the field at prominent venues. By recruiting celebrity choreographers to the District of Columbia, we give underprivileged and undervalued dancers a chance to work with the industry's elite. Thanks to our sponsors, we also offer scholarships to these aspiring professionals to study locally and abroad, as well as creating professional performance experience to boost their resumes through our annual gala, "The Capitol Movement Project." Without these options, many local dancers would not be able to afford and/or participate in this type of dance experience. Furthermore, proceeds raised from our annual concert help pay for monetary and program scholarships, as well as our youth outreach programs.

The fourth annual Capitol Movement Project was held March 7, 2009 at 8:00pm at the historic Lincoln Theatre. The concert this year featured new works from Leslie Feliciano, Stephanie Jojokian, J. Kevin Aguilar, Jared Jenkins and Viktor Wallace, and more...

CMI's 4th Annual Winter Cocktail Reception Reviews
Champions in Georgetown
January 8, 2009; 6:30-9:30pm

From the latest blog at www.jimmylynn.wordpress.com.

Last night I attended our annual fund-raiser in Georgetown for the wonderful Capitol Movement Project. I serve on their board of directors and I've been a supporter since their initial days. Thanks to everyone who attended and a major debt of gratitude to all of the people and firms that generously donated auction items.

Co-founded by Stephanie Jojokian and Amber Yancey, CMP is a terrific organization. Per their site -- the mission of CMP is "to build better lives through dance by partnering with community organizations to provide disadvantaged youth and underserved citizens the chance to participate and patronize the arts in Washington, DC." CMP also aims to "create opportunities for underprivileged DC area dancers to train and perform at the professional level. We represent dance in all its forms and styles as this transcends all boundaries and nurtures our mission."

If you like dance and the arts, I strongly encourage you to attend your annual performance in DC, which will take place at 8:00 pm on Saturday, March 7th at the historic Lincoln Theatre on U St.

Yes, 10-12 of the dancers are Washington Redskins cheerleaders, but it's actually a wide range of performers...female and male...adults and youth. In fact, three of my favorites are the three 10-year olds who nearly always steal the limelight! You'll see an array of performance... traditional, jazz, ballet, hip-hip, etc. Trust me, you'll walk away highly entertained. Every one of my friends that has attended a CMP performance the past three years has walked away very much entertained and with smiles on their faces.

CONGRATULATIONS TO THE WINNER OF OUR 2009 RAFFLE- FREDDIE WYATT!
He won a GENUINE Scooter
