We’re back for the 3rd edition of the Matrix Battle.
The first dance battle created in this format in Normandy.
What is an experimental dance battle?
> Battle (noun): a fun challenge in the form of a duel or public exchange, judged by professionals according to criteria of originality, technique, interpretation and musicality.
> Experimental (adjective): a discipline within hip-hop culture, without distinction of style.
Draws on all the techniques available to the dancer (contemporary, hip-hop, salsa, capoeira, classical, etc.) to develop a concept, a world, a story, set to any music.

And why this name?
“Matrix Battle” because it is together, during this event, that we will break free from the matrix (everyday life), for a few hours: through dance, we enter another world, another perception of reality beyond the hassles of everyday life, each with their own style and personality, just like in experimental dance.
We look forward to seeing lots of you there!!!
