Aurore Dupuy

Aurore has always been linked with acrobatics, since she used to spend her nap time upside down on her head in the couch. She has jumped into it at the age of six, practicing artistic gymnastic, until she discovered the circus. She could then take her distance with the highly competitive spirit and formatting effects of gymnastic, to reveal herself with the artistic bodily expression. She has specialized from then into aerials and floor acrobatics.
Aurore has continued her trajectory by integrating the National School of Circus in Paris (ENACR), where she has started to work as a flyer in aerial cuadrel. She has since then become a circus traveler, living and working in South America as a performer and teacher for several years. Back in France, she has worked with flying trapeze companies and performed with the Chinese pool. In 2010, while continuing to teach, she has taken a step aside from the performance, in order to study the social dimension of circus arts through the lens of anthropology, resulting in the first PhD about transnational circus circulations.
During the first part of her carrier, Aurore has been committed in mixing acrobatics at height with the interpretation of tragi-comical characters. She is today passioned with the dancing and seek to work on combining the circus arts with different branches of movement.
