Boris Charmatz is a French dancer, choreographer, and director, renowned for his innovative approach to contemporary dance. Born in Chambéry, France, on January 23, 1973, Charmatz has greatly influenced the dance world with his experimental works. His career began as a dancer, but he soon transitioned to choreography, founding the Association Edna with Dimitri Chamblas.
