About Us

Who We Are

Our definition of groove is – a Groove makes you move!  Movement creates unity, community, and change. Our mission is an empowerment through music. We believe in healing by telling our stories through music and improvisation. Groove Diplomacy is a Non – Profit/NGO based in Brooklyn, New York that collaborates internationally with U.S. Embassies, other NGOs, academic institutions and organizations creating musically based projects that empower, engage and give agency to the participants.  Recent projects have focused on female empowerment, entrepreneurship, educational diplomacy, citizenship, cultural celebration, and sustainability.
