Charles Brecard
Born in New-Caledonia/Kanaky of Vietnamese descent, Charles Brecard is a dance artist, curator, sport massage therapist, and poet based between Montreal/Tio’tia:ke and Paris.
His approach, FLUIDIFY, bridges traditional, contemporary, and street dances with bodywork, philosophy, and spirituality. He teaches in diverse settings, from cultural mediation to professional festivals and programs across Canada, Europe, Japan and New Caledonia.
His choreographies—marked by strong physicality, epic surrealism, melancholic poetry, and lucid activism—have been presented in Brazil, Spain, Japan, Poland, UK, Basques Country, Quebec, New Brunswick, Greece, and Germany, earning awards in Montreal (Best Performance, Short Film, Outdoor Performance) and Stuttgart (Best Choreography, Residencies in Italy). He has created for Bradyworks, André Pappathomas, Wroclaw Opera Ballet, and professional dance programs.
Believing art should foster solidarity and celebration, he co-initiated community projects in Montreal such as Le Bercail, Sacré Jam, and Proto-studio.
