Maxime
Cozic



Maxime (he/him) is a dancer originally from the south of France, currently based in Brussels. He began hip-hop dance at the age of 8, before exploring other styles such as modern jazz, ballet, and contemporary dance. In 2015, after a year of training at Rêvolution in Bordeaux, led by Antony Égéa, he was hired by Laura Scozzi: this first professional opportunity quickly led him to work with French choreographers such as Mourad Merzouki, Fouad Boussouf, and Mickaël Lemer, as well as Étienne Rochefort, Dominique Rebaud, and Yann Lheureux. He's now mainly working in the Brussels-based companies Dame de Pic/Karine Ponties ("Soute à bagages" - creation 2024), and Loraine Dambermont ("T'façon on est en 2012" - creation 2025). 





hybrid floorwork


26.06 / 9h30-11h
27.06 / 9h30-11h


This workshop is about adapting certain breakdancing techniques into principles applicable to contemporary floorwork. Footwork, handstands, freezes and acrobatics will be explored through improvisation, practical exercises in pure technique and choreographic sequences to connect everything together. Emphasis will be placed on thorough understanding of the various tools, enabling participants independently use them in their future training. The goal is to impart a sufficiently fundamental technical foundation to provide a solid base from which each participant can develop a precise approach.
