Renos Nicos Spanoudes chats to Nadia Virasamy, about Moving into Dance which celebrates the Katlehong Community Dance Initiative (KCDI) on December 3rd.

The Katlehong Community Dance Initiative (KCDI) is a partnership between acclaimed dance training provider and professional dance company, the Moving into Dance Trust (a Non-for-profit) and the Ithuba Community College (ICC). Situated with the community, ICC has been a beacon of hope for academically minded youngsters who are striving to go beyond their current socio-economic situations.

Nadia Virasamy, CEO of MID said: “The KCDI was essentially about providing children and youth in the area a form of recreation through dance also to inspire them to drive employment opportunities through the performing arts. This is what we set out to do ad this is what we have achieved. Having worked with more than 800 children and youth per week has truly gone beyond all our expectations but it has shown us the hunger for the arts in the area”.

The project for this year draws to a close in December and will be celebrated through a final performance at the Zonkizizwe Community Hall on 3 December 2022 at 13h00 called Dance Katlehong! Entrance is free.

The community is encouraged to show their support to the youth of Katlehong by attending.
