Etha Dam, a urban dance group from France, has managed to overturn the stereotypes of hip hop with their original and dynamic style, combining street dance with theatre dance techniques, influenced by capoeira and African dance.

The company Etha Dam was created by Ibrahim Sissoko in 1998 from the common wish of talented and experienced dancers who share an open-minded spirit as well as same appreciation of dance art: a same état d'âme (frame of mind in French).
The identity of the company is based on its creative spirit and a dance that impresses by its precision, sensibility and energy.

The company has performed on international stages in countries such as France, Belgium, Switzerland, England, Finland, Sweden, Columbia, Equator, Haiti, Venezuela…
The show Aduna deals with the discovery of an unknown land by 7 adventurers. By a metaphoric evocation of the themes of revelation and sacred, the company offers to the audience a journey to the frontiers between reality and imagination, a dance composed of signs, creating a symphony of words of stones and sand. The word ‘aduna' in Wolof African language is a concept gathering the notions of world and destiny.

Aduna is a very powerful and colorful work, with nearly poetic lighting. Music composed by Sissoko plays an essential part in the work. It accentuates and supports the extremely physical and expressive movement of the dancers. The atmosphere of Aduna is impetuously intensive. It provides a breath of mysticism from distant lands to the festival.

The word ‘aduna' comes from wolof African language, it's a concept gathering the notions of world and destiny.

  • Choreographer Ibrahima Sissoko received his training from the Academy
    of Dance in Paris. A mainstay of the Chorea Company, he has forged his career on the stage as well as in the cinema, on television and in fashion shows. He brings to the Etha Dam Company a great breadth of experience garnered from collaboration on multiple choreographic projects and from his teaching of stage movement and Hip-Hop dance techniques.
  • The Etha Dam Company brings together seasoned dancers who share a common vision of dance, one that embodies concepts of sharing, interaction and humility. For nearly ten years, they have worked at the Company's core holding a vision that successfully infuses their on-stage modes of expression with techniques characteristic of various urban dance styles: the ‘new Style', house, Boogaloo and break Dance, all of which they have taught in workshops for a number of years.

Etha Dam ,法國一城市舞蹈團,成功將 霹靂舞的陳規轉營,加入他們原創的動感,將街頭舞和舞台技巧結合,表現出 capoeira 卡波拉 ( 非洲武術舞蹈 ) 和非洲舞的風範。

1998 年, Etha Dam 舞蹈團成立。創辦人 Ibrahim Sissoko 和一班才情橫溢的資深舞蹈員實踐他們開放的思維和對舞藝的熱愛,可謂 état d'âme (即志同道合的意思)。舞蹈團的風格以創新的精神為本,跳出精湛感性和活力澎湃的舞步,令人嘆為觀止。
舞蹈團曾在多國演出,包括法國、比利時、瑞士、英國、芬蘭、瑞典、哥倫比亞、厄瓜多爾、海地、委內瑞拉等。
演出項目「 Aduna , 歷奇之地」 的主題是 7 個冒險家探索未知的領域。透過召喚真象和神聖的比喻,讓觀眾神遊現實與幻想之境,舞蹈充滿著意象,創造了形容沙和石的文字,鏗鏘有聲。‘ Aduna '在非洲烏洛夫族語中,包含了世間和命運的概念。

Aduna 是一齣感染力強、色彩斑斕的作品,燈光效果如詩如畫。Sissoko編曲成為作品的主要部分,對舞蹈員極富體能和表達力的舞姿有提升和襯托的作用。

  • Etha Dam 舞蹈團的成員全都是資深的舞者 , 並且對舞蹈有著相同的看法 ,就是透過舞蹈將分享、互動和謙卑這些概念具體化。近十年來,他們抱著同樣的目標為舞蹈團打穩基礎,並成功 將街頭舞和舞台技巧結合 , 創出一些舞蹈新風格 ,而過去數年間,他們更開辦工作坊教授這些新技巧。
