San Francisco's leading performance arts studio and Home of Robert Moses' KIN.

Robert Moses’ Kin’s (RMK) mission is to produce work that speaks to what is specific and unique in human nature. RMK uses movement as the medium through which race, class, culture, and gender are used to voice the existence of our greater potential and unfulfilled possibilities.Since the company’s founding in 1995, RMK has developed and produced 90 original choreographic works, primarily by the Artistic Director, ranging from neoclassical ballet to postmodern movement theatre. The company is known in the Bay Area and across the country for a distinctive style of dance that powerfully combines athletic technique, rhythmic complexity, fusion of different dance styles, and gestural detail. It is a “dancers’ style of dance” that nevertheless has broad appeal to non-dance audiences. Driven by the Artistic Director’s extraordinary creativity and searching intellect, RMK frequently plays the role of artistic provocateur in the Bay Area dance community, taking audiences in surprising directions with work that tackles ideas of race, class, culture and gender in thought-provoking ways, while never forgoing the lush physicality that characterizes the company’s singular style. Having established itself as one of the Bay Area’s most innovative and exciting contemporary dance companies and a strong player on the national dance scene, RMK also serves as a role model for younger dance companies and artists, especially those of color.
