Julienne Doko is a French dancer, teacher and choreographer with roots in the Central African Republic who lives in Copenhagen, Denmark. She has trained in various styles in France, the United States, Canada, Brazil, Denmark and Senegal. Her postgraduate studies took her to various places where she discovered and explored different styles of traditional and contemporary dance (samba, traditional West African dances, Afro-contemporary, Afro-Brazilian and modern dance), as well as ballet, jazz and hip hop. Since 2002, Julienne has performed with various companies, in festivals, TV shows and musicals. She has been teaching dance styles such as traditional West African dance, hip hop, samba and contemporary dance since 2006. In her dance practice, Julienne explores connections between different dance styles and uses contemporary dance as a space for hybridization, a vehicle for synergy between dance techniques and expressions. Her movement and dramaturgy are inspired by her homeland and the travels she has made between them. Julienne also explores the medium of video and has produced and choreographed several dance videos. Both her stage and video work have been shown internationally.
