After an initial training at the Conservatoire of La Rochelle, Lise became a dancer with Claude Brumachon at the CCN of Nantes in 2001. For fifteen years, she performed some of the choreographer’s most significant works while also leading artistic projects in schools. Her creative, research, and teaching practices have always been grounded in a spirit of dialogue. One project, bringing together children with disabilities and non-disabled children, led her to reconsider how bodies in motion can be perceived and to approach dance as a means of action. This experience inspired her research dissertation The Intention of Gesture, Keystone of an Unlikely Encounter (Certificate of Aptitude, CNSMD of Lyon, 2015).
In 2016, transmission became the heart of her artistic commitment. Lise began working closely with students at Le Pont Supérieur, a higher education institution for the performing arts in the Pays de la Loire region. Alongside Ambra Senatore, she explores play as a creative resource and conceives dance as a space of relationship. She promotes dance through nomadic artistic and pedagogical projects, convinced of the body’s potential in action as a revelation of being in the world.
Most recently, she designed a teaching unit in Arts and Cultural Education for the Department of Arts and Languages at Nantes University.
