Spearman. He is an important part<br />

of developing a professional delivery<br />

of AATC’s vision when demonstrated<br />

on the runway or on film. He trains<br />

and coaches the models on walking<br />

with poise, standing in power poses<br />

and facilitating them to project an<br />

image of confidence when wearing<br />

our products. His expertise as a<br />

professional personal trainer gives<br />

him a keen eye for proper balance<br />

when presenting bodies as a canvas.<br />

The details in putting it together is<br />

executed by AATC’s artistic Director,<br />

Atieno Ayegba & makeup artists<br />

with various specialties; from tribal<br />

body painting, whimsical facial<br />

transformation, to accessorizing.<br />

Atieno is a multi facetted, multi<br />

layered artist that knows no limits<br />

when expressing Kenyan cultures<br />

and removing the stigma of African<br />

Fashion and making it Global Fashion!<br />

She dances and she also trains. Atieno<br />

Ayegba is an international boss lady<br />

working with the likes of Steve Waruta<br />

the release of their first music single.<br />

AATC is an international company<br />

extending its reach and showcase<br />

from London (Kenyans in The Park<br />

annual event in the UK) to Houston<br />

(East African Chamber of Commerce)<br />

and Atlanta (USA).<br />

What is a company if it doesn’t reflect<br />

the values and beliefs of it members?<br />

Philanthropy is an important part as<br />

well to the delivery of our services.<br />

Organizing or participating in events<br />

that have a purpose and that can<br />

be beneficial to the global and local<br />

communities as well is primordial.<br />

AATC is in preparation for the next<br />

project; a fashion show to bring<br />

awareness and support to Angalia<br />

for Imbako Public Health (NGP<br />

specializing in education for young<br />

girls in rural parts of Kenya).<br />

In addition, we partnered with a<br />

talented professional that understand<br />

the vision behind the mission and<br />

is able to create seamlessly using<br />

our products as the backdrop for<br />

encouraging and promoting Kenyan<br />

culture with excellence. Such<br />

professional is Brayo Judah. A world<br />

renown photographer, performer<br />

& choreographer, working in close<br />

collaboration with celebrities such<br />

as Fally Ipupa and Nameless. He<br />

is the creator of The African Body<br />

Movements System and the prodigy<br />

behind the lens. Incorporating Brayo<br />

Judah’s life work with the AATC creates<br />

an infinite cycle of creativity and<br />

cultural empowerment. Traveling the<br />

world and training several dancers,<br />

Brayo Judah is able to build a bridge<br />

for the Kenyan culture by infusing it<br />

to the African diaspora and beyond.<br />

For example, Natacha Zamor has<br />

been trained in the art of Chakacha<br />

by him, and is exposing the western<br />

world to this aspect of our culture.<br />

She is the CEO of TampaBay Afrofit, a<br />

company that provides avenues for<br />

health & wellness using an afrocentric<br />

approach.<br />

AATC’s vision incorporates all layers of<br />

artistic expressions in order to deliver<br />

a well rounded product representing<br />

fashion in an entertaining way and<br />

promoting Kenyan culture, beauty<br />

and uniqueness throughout the<br />

world!<br />
