Imagination Circle

March collaboration!
We worked with Mama kids foundation
throughout last month at their space in Kasubi Nabulagala slums, Kampala.
We taught and facilitated breakdance skills and knowledge based workshops with the main goal to inspire, boast and develop artistic and creative expression plus mindset among the young people in that community.

As we reachout to others, we don’t do it alone but with passionate, skilled and competent individuals in those areas; on this we teamed up with Denis Bbrkr and Kim-uli Steven Valentine Droplets to teach the workshops!
Thank you for your collaboration and giving back.

“The class was very useful for me. I want to have more so that I can improve my skills.
I am glad because at last I can now do perfect CCs”.
_ Maria & Esther, workshop attendees.

We intend to carry out more of these far and wide.
To support, reachout to us via DM.
