This Months Residency Artist: BraveSoul Movement

BraveSoul Movement was born organically in 2016 as the newest iteration of a 15-year synergy between two of Chicago’s veteran street dance artists, Daniel “BRAVEMONK” Haywood and Kelsa “K-Soul” Robinson. Rooted in the movement languages and cultures of Hip-Hop and Chicago House, as well as a range of other movement traditions, BraveSoul Movement combines dancemaking with transformed pedagogy, antiracist activism and community-building practices.
