Biography

During college at University of Geneva (Switzerland), Julien started his dance training, taking contemporary, modern and jazz dance classes at Le Studio de Bains and Dance Area. In 2012, former Martha Graham principal dancer Noemi Lapzeson invited him to join Vertical Danse Company. This experience jump-started Julien’s professional dance career, during which he has worked for several Geneva-based companies including Ô Bains Company and Confiture Company. In 2013, Julien decided to further his training in New York City by joining Steps on Broadway’s International Visa Program. Upon graduation in 2015, he has enjoyed performing for New York based companies such as Val Suarez’ Extanded Dance Theater, Gotham Dance Theater (A.D. Marc Andrew Nuñez) and The Next Stage Project (A.D. Jana Hicks and Marijke Eliasberg). He currently has the privilege to collaborate with Lane Gifford, Artistic Director of LaneCoArts and with Nicole Phillipidis' 277 Dance Project.

Julien’s other passion is Japanese language and culture. In 2010, he received his Master’s Degree in Japanese Studies from University of Geneva. Thereafter, he taught Japanese language at the alma mater and worked as a translator/interpreter.
