Join the Dope Girl Movement with Kisha Vaughan
Dope Girl Movement’s mission is to elevate and redefine perceptions of hip hop dance within Seattle’s cultural landscape. We create platforms to showcase the artistic essence of hip hop dance, celebrating its uniqueness while providing local hip hop dancers visibility and professional opportunities.
We honor the cultural significance of hip hop dance as a means of self expression and identity for marginalized urban populations, while also challenging the misconceptions that discredit the dance form’s artistry and skill. Our goal is to raise the art form’s profile by providing local hip hop dancers compensated experiences to perform in professional settings with comprehensive production support. We also advocate for fair wages to help hip hop dancers live, work, and thrive in Seattle. Our diverse community of talented Black/African American, Asian/Pacific Islander, Hispanic/Latino, and LGBTQIA+ hip hop dancers deserve the same level of opportunities and support as other forms of dance in our region.
