Hassiem Muhammad is a 25 year old New York City based actor and multidisciplinary movement artist. He is also a Teaching Artist for the New Victory Theater. Originally from Cayce, South Carolina, he holds a BFA in Acting from The University of North Carolina School of the Arts (UNCSA), and is represented by Harden Curtis Kirsten Riley (HCKR) Agency, and A3 Artists Agency.

Hassiem’s love for movement was sparked at the young age of eight when his father enrolled him in karate classes. A year later, he transferred to Hung Gar Kung-Fu and trained under Sifu Saleem until his transfer to an arts boarding school seven years later. But it doesn’t stop there!  Hassiem is also a contemporary dancer, a circus artist/performer, holds all eight weapons certifications from the Society of American Fight Directors in Stage Combat, and has even worked with the likes of the internationally touring PUSH Physical Theatre Company. If it moves-he is interested!
