About Stéphanie
Professionally trained in both ballet and contemporary dance, Stephanie Decourteille has achieved the artistic role of instructor, choreographer, dancer and artistic counsellor. Throughout her years of training and acquaintances with leading heads in the scene (Rudy Bryans, Corinne Lanselle, Bruno Agati, Manon Barbeau etc.), she defines and tirelessly reinvents her signature choreographic style. "Vertiges", her first danced solo and short dance film reasoned the recognition from her peers and fueled her international visibility. In November 2015, Stephanie left Montreal for Guadeloupe (FR) to create a new dance center in Basse-Terre named LE MA - MOUVEMENT ACTUEL. LE MA is a dance training center, an international platform of multidisciplinary artistic exchange and research, a space of research and creation (www.centrema.com). She also supports professional and amateur artists by offering master classes and weekly classes in Montreal. Since January 2018, by creating an intensive training in contemporary dance, Stéphanie welcomes artists who wish to improve their and technical and artistic skills.

Testimonies
"First of all, I was trained in circus. My path has quietly deviated towards dance. My questioning about my practice and my relationship to the movement led me to Stephanie's classes first and then to BIG BANG. I wanted to progress technically, to flourish and to put myself in danger. The accompaniment, the openness and the rigor that Stephanie offers allowed me to develop myself as an artist. Sharing experiences in a small group, being surrounded by artists with different backgrounds inspired me and stimulated me a lot".
