DeDe Dance Camp
Copyright © 2009 DeDe Dance Studio Incorporation. All rights reserved.
a youth & community based
organization in South, Los Angeles that
works to empower youth through
1. multicultural performing arts,
2. educational enrichment and
3. brotherhood/sisterhood programs.
The dance studio serves as a
transformational environment for
children to develop self-esteem,
tenacity and aspiration to become
leaders of their generation. Founded by
Deara Okonkwo, (documentary to the
right), with the vision on recycling the
knowledge of various arts disciplines
from studying at Debbie Allen's Dance
Academy. With the support of her
mother, Kendra Okonkwo, and aunt
Delores, Deara Okonkwo was able to
establish DeDe Dance Studio on her
Super Sweet 16! She is not only a dance
instructor for her students, but a
mentor, friend a big sister to many of
the children. She is their leader and they
model her footpath to become reputable
agents of change themselves.
