Move Collective: Community Engagement Through Dance/Urban Arts

Kala Seraphin - Artistic Director of Move Collective is a dancer, teacher, choreographer and yoga instructor.

To create a better World, the individual must first invest in their community. Move Collective has been a unique experience and a chance to unite a comunity to make it stronger. Geared towards youth and urban arts it has been very important in rejuvenating energy here in Kingston, Ontario. By pooling together artists from different walks of life, yet all invested in the urban arts, we have created a special synergy that has inspired young members to pursue their arts, empower them and believe in their community.
