First steps at three
Dance entered my life before I had the words to describe it. At three years old, I found in the studio what I would spend the next two decades refining — a precise, physical way of being present.
My early training at the Versailles conservatory laid the foundations: posture, musicality, the discipline of daily repetition. Not rules to follow, but a language to inhabit.
The city that sharpened everything
Moving to a Paris dance school brought a new intensity. Longer hours, higher standards, and the particular pressure of training in a city where dance is taken seriously.
It was here that technique became instinct — where the body stopped thinking and started listening.
Five years at the National Conservatory
The Paris National Conservatory of Music and Dance is not a school you attend — it is a world you enter. Five years of intensive training, surrounded by the most committed dancers in France.
I graduated with honours, carrying not just a diploma but a permanent shift in how I approach any creative problem: with patience, with the body, and without shortcuts.
Teaching as creative practice
Today, I teach dance while continuing to develop my artistic and design practice. Teaching is not a step back from creation — it is creation with different materials.
Watching a student find their balance for the first time involves the same attention to detail, the same sense of timing, the same patience with iteration that defines good design.
