Alvin Collantes

Alvin is a Filipino-Canadian dance artist, drag performer, Certified Gaga teacher and a newly Certified Jungian Life Coach based in Berlin, Germany. Drawing from his personal experiences as passionate raver, queer, immigrant and a person of colour, the essence of his research explores topics of assimilation and its emotional upheavals, uncovering strength inside vulnerability, physical sensations and untold stories of marginalized bodies, resistance as catalyst for transcendent growth and tackling the impact of drag & resilience in queer communities towards the cultivation of self-acceptance. He has been recently been featured in Adam Munning’s short film “OASIS” for Dazed & Calvin Klein about the celebration of queer family, and the ease and elation that emerges once you find your people and your place in the world.
