Intentions

Le Bassin de Diana opens with a short film, before the three dancers take to the stage. This choice reflects my desire to create continuity between the cinematic world and the stage, a fluid dialogue between the image and the living body (…). The short film becomes a gateway, a sensory preparation that readies the audience for the choreographic experience. The video introduces the atmosphere, bodies and energies of the show, like a first pulse. Then the stage takes over, the dancers transform the image into matter, and the imaginary becomes flesh. This transition from cinema to dance highlights the power of visual and physical duality and anchors my approach: to offer viewers a total experience, where the eye and the body are guided by a sensory dramaturgy.— Carmel Loanga

Bounce & Groove

Hip-hop carries within it a unique pulse: the bounce. It is this inner bounce, this relaxation of the body that moves to the beat. An identity. A signature.
