The Dance eXchange program pairs dancers and musicians with local students who can follow in their fancy footsteps!
"I was a very quiet kid in middle school. You know, I was just drawing instruments," said Kevin Harris II. "And I saw my friends breakdancing."
"I've went through college, I've went through performing art schools and here I am," he said. "I am teaching kids how to be themselves through dance." Dance eXchange is now part of four schools in Philadelphia, including Stephen Girard Elementary in South Philadelphia. There, Action News captured the final practice before students took their routine to the Mandell Theater to perform for family and friends.
One 3rd-grade student, Mason Hollis, was particularly fond of the Dance eXchange program that took him out of the classroom twice per week.
