About Danielle

Danielle Ward is a native of Clinton, MD. Over the 25 years of her dance career, Danielle has extensively trained in classical ballet, contemporary jazz, musical theater, modern, Hip Hop, West African dance and gymnastics. An alumnae of Bishop McNamara High School, she concentrated in lyrical jazz and West African dance. While there, she also became a student choreographer, playing vital artistic roles in her Junior and Senior festivals, being named Dancer of the Year by the American Dance Association upon graduation and inducted as a senior member of the Sankofa West African Dance Troupe.

Danielle attended Frostburg State University (MD), majoring in psychology and minoring in dance. As a member of the FSU Dance Company, Danielle was a student choreographer for four years, and is a founding member and former choreographer for the FSU Epitome Hip Hop Dance Team. Danielle is a graduate of the prestigious Broadway Dance Center internship program (New York, NY). Concentrating in contemporary jazz and hip hop, she trained under some of the industry's top choreographers including Brice Mousset, Slam, Luam, Rhapsody James and Sheryl Murakami. While at BDC, Danielle set and performed her original choreography for the BDC winter and spring showcases.

After college Danielle returned to her alma mater, Bishop McNamara to join the Fine Arts Department as a teacher and choreographer in the Classical Dance Program. While there, she also coached the Varsity Dance Team for two years, leading them to both UDA & MAPDA Championships in her final year. Since then, Danielle has taught at the National High School Dance Festival at Point Park University (PA), where her choreography was also selected to be showcased, the Joffrey Ballet Jazz & Contemporary Program (NY) under the direction of Michael Blake, and set pieces for various high school dance teams and programs in the D.C. Metropolitan area. Students under Danielle’s tutelage have signed contracts and maintained dance careers with major agencies such as BLOC (GA and CA), Clear Talent (NY), MSA (NY), and Go2Talent (CA), danced with companies and brands such as the Washington Redskins Cheerleaders and the Washington Wizards Dancers, attended and graduated from collegiate dance programs at colleges such as The University of Maryland, Towson University, The American Musical and Dramatic Academy, and University of the Arts. Danielle also specializes in Active Isolated Flexibility, Stretching & Alignment for Athletes, working with gymnasts, basketball and football players in introducing and maintaining key exercises in cross conditioning.

Danielle joined the DanceMakers Inc (MD) creative team in 2012 as the Competitive Troupe Rehearsal Director and as the Lead Jazz and Lyrical Choreographer. Her choreography over the years has received countless entertainment, choreography, and title awards on both the regional and national levels. Her choreography at DanceMakers has also been featured in social media campaigns for Rap Snacks, Russian Pointe Ballet Shoes, and featured in Dance Spirit Magazine. During her time she has also taken on the role of Co-Competiton Coordinator, maintaining the studio’s relationships with competition brands, acting as on site liaison, and assisting in communications between parents and the studio.

I enjoy getting to know my students and helping them discover their authentic artist. Seeing my dancers excell in all areas of their life and being a guide to them throughout it all is the most exciting part of being a teacher for me.
