Many years ago Karma Butler auditioned to be a student of Virginia’s premiere Arts School, The Governor’s School for the Arts. Karma auditioned for three departments hoping to just be accepted into one department, as it was well known that each department was very select in choosing only a few new talented students to join their prestigious school, and the chances of getting in any of the departments was very slim. To Karma’s surprise he was accepted into all three of the departments he auditioned for; Dance, Theater, and Performing Arts. Karma chose the Performing Arts department due to the department’s combination of singing, dancing, and acting for careers intended for Broadway, television, stage, and more. At the end of his four year attendance at the Governor’s School for the Arts, as an honor Valedictorian graduate, he found himself leaving the school with his talents being strongest as a dancer. When he began the four-year program he was often laughed at as being one of the worst dancers on the stage. Karma took on the challenge to become the best dancer he could be. He reached the top level of dance classes in the Performing Arts Department, so his faculty director allowed Karma to take dance classes with the advanced students of the Dance Department. Just before graduating High School, Paramount hired Karma to be a Hip-Hop Dancer in their main-stage show, Retro-Active, choreographed by award-winning choreographer, Barry Lather, at their theme park, King’s Dominion. When Kama’s contract with Paramount was over he moved to the West Coast to begin his college scholarship as a Dance Major at the California Institute of the Arts.
