Biography

After a period as a hip-hop dancer, Amala Dianor enrolled in 2000 at the school of the National Centre for Contemporary Dance in Angers, and went on to work as a performer for choreographers in very different universes: hip-hop (Farid Berki), neo-classical (Roland Petit), contemporary (Emanuel Gat, Abou Lagraa, Sylvain Groud…) and Afro-contemporary (Georges Monboye). Over these years, Amala Dianor has developed his own writing style: he slips between techniques with virtuoso ease, but what appeals to him is how these worlds connect. In 2012, he set up his own company and has since been creating his own pieces.
