The Maryland Greenhawks have posted bios and photos of their dance team. You can check them out here.

The Maryland Green Hawks are proud to announce its Dance Team the Lady GreenHawks. The team is led by Program Directors, Bea Codjoe and Jane Johnson. Both directors have directed teams such as the Montgomery County Ramettes, and recently directed The DC Armor professional indoor football dance team, The Body Armor.

Dancing and cheerleading have continued to be a passion for both Bea and Jane, and after hearing about the opportunity to work with the GreenHawks, they couldn’t not say no. We are excited to be a part of such a strong standing organization that does so much in the community! The team Choreographer is Audra Weaver who has an extensive dance background. Audra spent time as a Cheerleader for the MISL Baltimore Blast  before becoming the director of the AIFA Baltimore Mariners Dance Team.

We support the mission of the Green Hawks organization, and we plan on becoming the 1st go Green Dance team. We are working with uniform distributors on producing an organic uniform, and we will also be using recycled pom poms.

The Lady GreenHawks are the official dance team of the DC Metropolitan area’s only Premier Basketball League team, The Maryland GreenHawks. Auditions for the GreenHawks were held in mid- November and the team has selected 14 talented and professional dancers that reside in the DC Metropolitan area. All of the women on this team have what it takes to represent the DC Metropolitan area in a professional manner.

This group women range in ages 20 to 39 years old. Their careers are in a variety of professions, including business, human resources, medicine and teaching. The Lady GreenHawks dancers will join the GreenHawks organization in community events, parades and festivals in and around the DC Metropolitan area. We also plan to serve as role models to young women in the DC Metropolitan area and we hope to provide camps and other events for young dancers to participate in throughout the summer!
