About the Executive Director

Ms. Robin Angelica Pitts (Executive Director) is a native Washingtonian.  She was educated in the Archdiocese Council system of Prince Georges County, Maryland.  She completed her college education at Howard University.  In 1992, the Lord Jesus Christ placed a vision in her heart to become an entrepreneur.  Stepping out on Faith in 1993, Ms. Pitts opened her first dance studio “Pizzazz Studio of Dance (PSD)”. In 2000, the Lord once again placed in her spirit that the youth needed more. With this in mind, the vision of DanceMakers, Inc., which is a non-profit 501c3 organization, was created.

During the course of her years Ms. Pitts is a member of Dance Educators of America and the International Association of Blacks in Dance.  She has served as a dance instructor for 17 years and has instructed students ranging from 3 yrs. to adult in all areas of dance.  Ms. Pitts has led her students to “Winning” national, regional and local dance competitions.  She has represented talents on “Showtime At The Apollo”, “The Jenny Jones Show”, Civil War Memorial featuring Dionne Warwick, BET Tribute to Urban Youth Choir featuring Clifton Davis, and was the Executive Producer of the 2000 production of the “Chocolate Nutcracker” featuring Chante Moore.  Ms. Pitts and her staff of certified instructors are committed to quality dance education and professionalism.  It is our goal that students enjoy dance while learning proper technique and discipline.  Other benefits include physical conditioning and rhythm.  She has casted for Dr. Dre – “Phone Tap” and Wu Tang Clan – “Cross My Heart” music videos.

Ms. Pitts is an active member of First Baptist Church (FBC), under the leadership of Pastor Frank D. Tucker.  Ms. Pitts is the very proud daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Roosevelt Pitts.
