For all With Sylvain Huc, Louise Loubière and Constant Dourville

Guided by Sylvain Huc, and with no prerequisites, everyone becomes an artist… All you have to do is watch, imitate and let yourself be carried along by the group’s energy.

The choreographies, simple and accessible to all, are first learned in silence, without music, to integrate the steps and sequences. Once the basics have been mastered, the music comes in to energize the whole group. The workshop also includes a rhythmic introduction...

Adult, all levels, Compagnie Sylvain Huc
Sylvain Huc sees the body in movement as a language, but also as a technology, a set of techniques that he shares. The workshop unfolds in perpetual movement, from floor to standing. The repetition of gestures that gradually become more complex becomes a working principle. Made up of strata that gradually build up, these gestures, or motifs, cultivate physical rigor and precision of movement. “There’s a strong artisanal dimension to my practice, in the sense that repetition of...

All ages 13 and up With Anne Lopez
When the world turns upside down, the dancer stands tall; he makes imbalance his greatest strength, and his dance exists only in the present, between the imaginary and the real world. Anne Lopez proposes a two-stage workshop process: allowing the dance nested in each person’s body to unfold, then to be written. Dancing, searching for gestures, getting into movement, letting yourself be surprised by the impulse of an idea, a sound, a place or someone else. Improvise, then collect the...

Adults, all levels With Dimitris Adam & Nicolas Mélodias, accompanied by Violette Boulanger (violin) and Victor Stoichita (laouto)
Thrace, Macedonia, Peloponnese, Crete, the Aegean Islands or the Ionian Islands – each region of Greece is home to diverse cultural traditions. While the dances of the mountainous regions are identifiable by their marked steps on the ground, the nissiotika (island dances) feature more bouncy movements, like the waves that surround the countless islands of the archipelago. Accompanied by the laouto (lute) and violin, this workshop is an opportunity to discover an anthology of traditional...

Adults, all levels With Nabjibe Said and Aline Lopes
Much more than just a dance, hip-hop was born in the streets of the Bronx, New York, in the 1970s. It was a protest movement, a way of expressing oneself and partying away from violence. Breakdance is one of its most emblematic forms, with its ground movements, acrobatic figures and explosive energy. Nabjibe Said and Aline Lopes propose a workshop to discover this practice, through the movements and flows that have shaped the history of hip-hop. An opportunity to connect with the power and...
