Mohammed Rashead

Performing has always been an outlet for Mohammed, as a first generation Canadian from Syria. Mohammed was always keen for any opportunity and challenge that was brought to the table. With pure optimism and curiosity for the arts, Mohammed started dancing at the late age of nine.Mohammed joined Team Canada after graduation, training in Jazz, Contemporary and Hip Hop, competing at the International Dance competition in Italy. Before moving to Vancouver, Mohammed was a part of Vibestreet Dance Studio: training under Jerome Esplana, Alo Galedo, Scott Forsyth, and Roberta Bierman. The experience of training and competing internationally equipped Mohammed with the discipline, focus, and drive to teach at Vibestreet, Raino Dance, and to choreograph for local artists in Victoria. Once moving over to the mainland in 2017, Mohammed danced with TwoFourSeven Company under the direction of acclaimed choreographers, Carlo Atienza and Roberta Bierman. 

Now training in his acting career at local studios and working in the film industry on shows such as Zoey’s Extraordinary Playlist (Mandy Moore, Jillian Meyers), Riverdale (Heather Laura Grey), and more.  Mohammed is a brave and dedicated individual. His contagious positivity creates a nurturing and progressive environment that fosters growth for his peers and himself. Mohammed is so excited to take on the opportunities that are to be presented in the near future, and is looking forward to seeking out new endeavours. https://dancewest.net/mohammed-rashead // IG: @moh4mmedrashead
