Brahim Rachiki is an artist who has always been passionate about expressing himself in different ways. He started his journey in art by dancing, watching videos of the King of Pop : Michael Jackson, when he was only a kid.
His biggest dream has always been to become an actor and play different characters.
By the age of 12, he had the opportunity to play in different short films. Some directors encouraged him to follow this path, while his parents wanted him to study.
Brahim decided to put his dream aside, but started dancing again to fulfill his deep need of creation. When he danced, he was curious, lively and passionate, so it naturally became his major way of expression.
As the streets were his playground, he turned to hip-hop. In parallel, he was reading books and watching documentaries about Bob Fosse and Baryshnikov, to name just a few, to nourish his inspiration.
He also wrote poetry to put words on all the images that came to his mind and express his emotions. His thirst of learning lead him to travel to the USA.
His ultimate goal was to meet experienced dancers of different styles and work with them.
His hard work finally paid off few years later, when Brahim gets the opportunity to collaborate with international music Pop Stars.
In 2008, he choreographed Madonna « Vogue », on « Sticky and Sweet Tour ». The news spreads quickly : Ed Moo re, Janet Jackson’s choreographer asks him to work on the singer’s “Discipline” tour.
In 2009, he joined Travis Payne’s team on Michael Jackson’s « This Is It ». After this incredible experience, and the death of his icon Michael Jackson, he decided to go back to his first love: cinema.
While studying acting, Brahim appears in different commercials, live events and collaborates with many famous artists. He played in different American and European movies, and modeled for David Lachapelle and many other brands.
As a creative and artistic director, he works again with Travis Payne and wins an award as best choreographer.
Dancer, actor, model, director, Brahim continuously creates new artistic projects and is still full of surprises.
« Because there is not just one way to express myself says Brahim, I’m looking forward to seeing what’s coming next … »
