From At-Risk Youth to Pioneering Dance Therapist
Solo Expression was founded by Anthony "Solo" Harris, who began his journey as an at-risk youth and transformed his life through dance. A member of the legendary ENVY dance group (est. 2003) from Newark, NJ, Anthony performed on national television and stages across the country, helping cultivate the Jersey Club dance style and energy.
During his time with ENVY, Anthony shed light on Newark's positive energy while revitalizing street dance for the new millennium. Since then, he has been teaching professionally for over 15 years and creating opportunities for dancers of all abilities to shine.
He also has ten years of experience in direct care service with at-risk youth, developmentally disabled individuals, and physically impaired populations. This unique combination of street dance culture and therapeutic care led Anthony to invent a groundbreaking form of dance therapy.
"Anyone can open a dance studio, but without a purpose behind it, you're doing yourself and the art form a disservice."
What Drives Us
Solo Expression offers a modern dance environment that merges traditional studio standards with a strong focus on supporting developmentally disabled and at-risk youth. We have classes for everyone in a fun, safe, and clean environment.
Our specialty classes are catered to allow our developmentally disabled, at-risk youth, and physically impaired population to experience dance just as everyone does. We accept FSS and IDD waivers. If you can't come to the studio, no problem — we also provide on-site sessions and Zoom classes.
Anthony "Solo" Harris has made a groundbreaking contribution to the dance community by inventing a unique form of dance therapy. This innovative approach cultivates a safe and expressive space for individuals with disabilities, at-risk youth, and our senior populations. Through this therapy, participants express themselves freely, fostering growth in their individuality and tapping into their spiritual healing energy.
