Born in Kuujjuaq, Quebec, is a Canadian performance artist and choreographer whose work bridges instinct and inquiry. She began her training at l’École supérieure de ballet du Québec and continued at Arts Umbrella in Vancouver, developing a foundation in both classical and contemporary dance. Béatrice launched her professional career with RUBBERBAND in Montréal while freelancing with Compagnie Marie Chouinard, experiences that shaped her interest in hybrid movement languages. From 2018 to 2020, she danced with the Batsheva Ensemble in Tel Aviv, where her connection to Gaga, Ohad Naharin’s movement language, deepened profoundly. Now a certified Gaga teacher, Béatrice works internationally as an independent artist, performer, and collaborator across Europe, Israel, and North America. Her recent creations include a 2023 commission for L’École de danse contemporaine de Montréal and a work for FLYOUT Transition Company in Rome. Her newest solo choreography has been recognized with first prize in choreography and second prize in performance at Stuttgart’s International Dance Solo Festival. Béatrice’s process integrates Gaga, RUBBERBAND’s method, and classical ballet—exploring movement as a pathway to emotional resonance, physical imagination, and human complexity.
