Admissions & Career Coaching for DANCERS

Where dancers leap into their future with confidence.

We are a dance-focused coaching and consulting company dedicated to helping artists take their next big step — whether that’s preparing for college admissions, refining an audition solo, mapping out a graduate school application, or planning a professional transition.

Led by Napoleon W. Gladney — former professional dance company member, Broadway tour dance captain, commercial dancer, college faculty, and arts leader — Jump Off Arts provides personalized coaching, strategic consulting, and creative programming that empowers dancers to grow as artists, students, and professionals.

With a balance of practical guidance and artistic insight, we help dancers not only get ready for the audition room, but also for the long journey of a sustainable career in the arts.

Your artistry has a future. We’ll help you jump off into it.

"I was extremely nervous about applying to college. Working with Napoleon gave me the advice and perspective I needed to feel confident about the process — he opened my eyes to career paths I never would have found on my own and connected me with resources and professionals in the field that made a real difference."

"Napoleon has a gift for calming you down when the pressure of college applications feels like too much. He taught me how to tell my story and be confident in who I am and where I'm from. That's something I'll carry long after the applications are done."
