Artistic Director of Spoken Movement UK, Kwame Asafo-Adjei has been dancing for over 10 years and running his dance company for 6 years. Kwame acquired many skills and knowledge throughout his time through training over the years. One of his techniques is to pay attention to organic movement. Using the world as a stage, Kwame plays on movement through transitions, formations, concept and narrative.
Kwame has curated many pieces of work in both dance and film, ranging from 5-30 minutes in length. Kwame, through his company, allows his artists to play with different elements of Hip-Hop, through his differe nt pieces of work.
Through mentors such as Jonzi D (Breakin Convention) and Jonathan Burrows (Royal Ballet), Kwame has developed his artistry through artist development programs such as “Back to the lab”. This opened his mind to use different creative techniques and push his work in creating Hip Hop Theatre. Kwame’s aim is to create awareness through his work in order to challenge the reality.
