Roubaix, France

"Compagnie et Ecole de danse Hip hop créée en 1987 basée à Roubaix, dans le Nord.
Notre école propose des cours de danse Hip hop enfants, ados et adultes mais aussi des ateliers, des stages, des conférences et des spectacles !"
"Hip hop dance company and school created in 1987 based in Roubaix, in the North. Our school offers Hip Hop dance lessons for children, teenagers and adults, but also workshops, courses, conferences and shows!"

Pont-de-Bois, France 

Rachid Hedli founded Compagnie Niya in 2011, the culmination of years of collaboration with various professional companies and a career as a performer, dancer, educational speaker. During these years, he has refined his style and claims the contemporary hip hop universe of his dance, always in confrontation with unexpected musical universes integrating image and speech.
"The Company participates in artistic research laboratories dedicated to research and innovation and activates a proposal for creation, distribution and awareness with the desire not to lock itself into one style."

Roubaix, France

"The city of Roubaix bought the Coliseum building in 1980 and the Ballet du Nord, then a branch of the Lille Opera, moved there in 1983 under the direction of Alfonso Catà, a Cuban dancer and choreographer in the neoclassical style, in the line of Balanchine. It became the National Choreographic Center (CCN) in 1985, a new system of the Ministry of Culture aimed at promoting the development of classical and contemporary dance on French territory. The Ballet du Nord separates from the Opera and thus becomes the bearer of new missions in Nord-Pas-de-Calais."
