Rashad Pridgen (aka Soul Nubian)

Rashad Pridgen (aka Soul Nubian) is a dance artist, choreographer and urban arts facilitator.

Rashad is the Founding Artistic Director of Motif Performance Group, a project-oriented performance arts collaboration with the purpose of reflecting the human experience through African Diasproic and underground dance. Rashad has been a part of underground dance culture for fifteen years while simultaneously apprenticing the art of choreography. This inquiry places him among the generation of artists developing a “future dance aesthetic” - alchemizing street dance vernacular for the traditional Western concert stage.

Rashad has performed with Bill T. Jones/Arnie Zane Dance Company, Ronald K. Brown/Nick Cave "Soundsuites", at the Jacobs Pillow Dance Festival with Jacinta Vlach/Liberation Dance Theater, as part of Rennie Harris’s: Illadelph Legends Festival, The Living Word/Hybrid Project, Hip-Hop Theater Festival SF and The Black Choreographers Festival 2005 & 2009.

Rashad currently is an adjunct faculty member at the University of San Francisco where he teaches Hip-Hop in the Performing Arts and Social Justice Department.
