Vincent Bingham joins our staff as a resident guest instructor.  He grew up in Washington DC and began dancing at the age of 6.  Later, he was in the Broadway cast of the Tony Award winning show "Bring In Da Noise, Bring In Da Funk."  His Broadway tours also included "Wild Women Blues."  Other honors include recognition by the Kennedy Center, and the opportunity to dance at Bill Clinton's Presidential Inauguration.  Vincent has also appeared on television with Regis Philbin and David Letterman.  He has danced with Savion Glover, Gregory Hines and many other outstanding performers including R&B singer Mya and the world's greatest entertainer - Sammy Davis Jr. 

As much as Vincent enjoys performing, he enjoys sharing his love of tap with students.  In the early nineties, he taught at the Duke Ellington High School of Performing Arts and at the Manhattan Dance Project.  He also taught master classes for the Howard University Dance Department. 

Back in the D.C. area this year, Vincent wants to remain where his soul is - tap dancing, teaching, and working with children.
