Interested in the rhythmic richness of African-American vernacular dances, he places great emphasis on the transmission of knowledge and techniques.
Loving sharing and competition, he has stood out in numerous events, both in the Hip Hop and Swing scenes. He notably won the House final at the Juste Debout Nordic with Raza, the Showcase Contest of the Paris Jazz Roots, the Deep House Mission, and qualified for the finals of Summer Dance Forever and the ILHC in Solo Jazz.

Levels
It is possible to register for multiple levels at the same time!
_Beginner
You’ve never danced solo jazz, or perhaps you’ve just learned a few steps here and there while already practicing other swing dances. Come here and dive in for real! You’ll learn basic moves, techniques, and rhythms that will give you plenty to enjoy on the dance floor.
_Intermediate
You’ve been taking Solo classes since September 2024 and practice occasionally at socials, or you've learned the basics through choreographies like the Shim-Sham or Tranky-Doo. At this level, the goal is to expand your vocabulary and become more confident in your improvisation, so you can have even more fun!
_Avancé
You have a solid repertoire of steps and feel comfortable improvising solo. Now, you're ready to explore new material, experiment with different styles, and push your dancing to a whole new level. This is the perfect opportunity to challenge yourself and grow!
