Corinne Skaff
Chorégraphe, Enseignant.e, Chercheur.se
orinne Skaff is a Lebanese dance artist and educator based in Montreal. She is the founder of ContactCampBeirut and the School of Movement Arts (S.o.M.A) in Beirut, and the artistic director of the Company Éphémère.
She has a master's degree in dance from the Department of Dance at UQAM.
She approaches dance as a vital practice of self-embodiment rather than merely a form of entertainment. In her constant search for dances that are meaningful within cultural and personal contexts, her movement practices and teaching are inspired by contact improvisation, contemporary movement practices, physical theater, dance science, and ecosomatic principles. As an educator, she draws inspiration from a state of continuous learning through play and everything that is ephemeral. She is interested in transmission strategies and policies, as well as creating community connections through movement practices.
