SOUL, COURAGE, AND RHYTHM
 
     The Soul, Courage and Rhythm Dance Company, also known as Salseros Con Ritmo Dance Company, was founded in March of 2004 by Director Joanna Berryman.  All of the former members were high school students at Middle College for Technology Careers High School in Houston, Texas.  The current members are all students at High School for Law Enforcement and Criminal Justice also in Houston.  
 
     SCR Dance began as free salsa lessons taught by Joanna Berryman after school twice a week.  She wanted high school students to learn to express themselves through salsa dance.  Through dancing, our young adults can learn confidence and comfort with themselves and others.  Within SCR Dance, students find their own SOUL, COURAGE, and RHYTHM and how to express it to the world! 
 
     In May 2004, SCR Dance made its debut in the Texas Salsa Open, performing with 4 couples.  They have gone on to perform in several salsa events around Houston. 
 
     SCR Dance continued to grow.  In the 2005-2006 school year the advanced students became the teachers.  SCR Dance offered free lessons taught by our advanced company members (high school students) to beginner students at MCTC High School.  Additionally, we had a student choreographer, Jesus Aguilera, who worked in collaboration with the director to design and choreograph the routines.
 
     Due to the closing of MCTC, the director moved the dance company to High School for Law Enforcement and Criminal Justice and has started with a new and fresh group of beginner students.  The excitement has already begun to grow as they have already taught elementary students and performed at the high school with a choreography by Rebecca Santiago.
