【2023 Weiwuying Circus Platform】Clément DAZIN's Body Training Workshop
We will begin the work on slow motion technique. We will explore deep feelings staying a long time in this special state of mind, body and soul. By this work we will work on extremely precise consciousness of presence, weight transfer and organic movement. We will also train on floor work movement and simple accordance movement. It is not necessary to have a specific body or to be an acrobat to participate. Then we will play with different speedness of movement, different rhythm and try to compose all together a short sequence by group and by solo. This workshop could be the beginning of a new creation with you.
Synopsis
I am Clément DAZIN, artistic director of La Main de l'Homme, a contemporary circus company based in France. I came two times before to perform in Taiwan and I would like to meet Taiwanese artists through a workshop/audition.
The goal is to teach to the people interested a special way to move. During the workshop, we will go through different techniques mixing contemporary dance, floor work, slow motion, acrobatics and some hip hop effects. I am used to working with contemporary circus artists but for the next creation I would be glad to also invite dancers. The beginning of the creation could begin in spring 2024.
During the workshop, I will teach these specific techniques and there will be a moment for you to show your specific skills. I am looking forward to meeting you and to sharing a nice artistic experience. You can see my work on clementdazin.fr.

©Dan Ramaën
Fascinated at an early age by movement and body control, he first started gymnastics at age 6. He turned toward circus and especially juggling at 16 years old, as a member of the Point Bar company, where he discovered the joy of creation. Before professionalizing in Circus Arts, Clément took the time to work for 2 years on a telephone platform, and then became an apprentice management controller at Eurocopter. He holds a Master's degree in Management and is particularly interested in the psycho-affective dimension in business relationships in his final dissertation.
In 2008, he joined the Lyon Circus School and the National Centre of Circus (CNAC) in 2009. There, he had the opportunity to meet artists such as Philippe Genty, Aragorn Boulanger, Fatou Traoré, Johanne Saunier, Julien Clément or Bruno Dizien, who influenced his work. He explored the links between contemporary dance, Hip Hop techniques and juggling. By doing so, he realized how interesting it was to mix these fields.
In 2012, he toured as part of the This is the End production of the CNAC's 23rd promotion. In 2014, he was invited by the SACD and the Avignon Festival to create a duet with a dance, R2JE. Bruit de couloir is a solo created in 2013. After more than sixty performances worldwide (Europe, China, South America, Asia) it continues its tour in 2018 in Panama and Portugal. The show was presented at the Fire Station in July 2018 in Avignon. Surrounded by six jugglers, Clément DAZIN created his company La Main de l'Homme and presents Humanoptère in October 2017 at Cirque-Théâtre d’Elbeuf. With a tour of more than thirty performances from the Montfort (with the city theater) to the Torino Danza Festival in Italy, the project has gathered more than 8,000 spectators in more than 20 cities in Europe. The project continues its journey from Berlin to Amiens in 2018.
Clément has been supported since his first projects by La Brèche, PNAC Normandy and House Juggling, SC La Courneuve. In 2019, he collaborated with the companies 14:20 and Insula Orchestra to interpret Samiel in the opera Der Freichutz. In 2021, he creates Cosmos, at the Klap, with Ashtar Muallem, and in October, presented its creation Inops at Cirque Théâtre d'Elbeuf. This show for six circus artists interrogates weakness, strength and resistance. With Trajectoires, touring in 2022-2023, Clément DAZIN moves into middle school classrooms for a performance mixing dance and juggling.
In November and December 2022, he creates L'Envers de nos décors with Thomas Scotto at the Théâtre de L'Etoile du Nord in Paris; then A.N.G.S.T in March 2023 at DSN – Dieppe Scène Nationale with Lucas Bergandi.
