Passionate About:

Hello, my name is Taeksu Kim, and I am passionate about dancing and teaching dance. Dance has been my sport ever since I moved to the US in my 5th-grade year. This body language has been an amazing expression of emotions and a tool which introduced me to my friends. So it thrills me to teach others to dance, hoping it will bring a positive influence to them as it did to me.

Movement Exchange at UCSD: Panama 2016



Taeksu's Message

Sustenance, clothing, and shelter: Dance didn’t make it through the cut to be a survival essential. It never did, and it never will.
People need clean water and nutrition, sanitary clothing, and safe refuge to stay alive. And there are thousands of organizations to do just that. But what happens after they get to stay alive?
They’ve survived the calamity or they’ve been rescued. But who’s going to teach them to embrace smudges engraved deep into their mind as a design, and to stand tall on their feet? And be confident?

Dance, in my opinion, not only speaks for but also nurtures souls.
Dancers learn not only to do certain moves but also the attitude behind them- Confident, sincere, jealous, honest, loving, dope.

And I, as a member of Movement Exchange, wish to introduce such changes.
This is where I ask for help. $1350 may not be a lot for some of you guys, but to me, who is working part-time to pay off tuition, it is a scary amount.
Any and every donation is needed.
Thank you.
