After finishing their bachelor's degrees within years of each other, shortly following the pandemic, Kyla & Tyrus both found themselves wanting to do more than they were able to in their traditional education.

Developing this project on our own terms feels like the ultimate culmination of years and years of experience, living and healing through dance. 

As dance is often the medium left out of the visual arts or considered the least amongst the underground art forms, Brain in Motion strives to highlight the impact of Hip Hop dance both on those who are not immersed in the culture, but are interested in learning, in addition to those who are immersed in and live within the culture and lifestyle.  

Our team members have been cultivating our own programming, independent of studio contracts or schedules, in the city and the county in St. Louis, MO. Spanning the map of St. Louis will allow us to reach a larger audience and ensure that everyone who wants to participate in the intervention has access.
