Audrey Lanoux

Audrey Lanoux is a French Canadian Graham and Horton technique teacher. She is the co-director of Espace Danse Adagio in Hull and an MIU associate. She is also a member of the Voices Dance Project company. Audrey Lanoux grew up in northeastern France, where she started ballet at the age of three. In her teenage years, she learnt jazz and modern dance. In 2012, she defended her thesis of research in astrophysics and earned a Doctor of Philosophy degree from Université de Toulouse.

In 2013, Audrey moved to the UK and had the opportunity to train with professional dancers from 3rd Stage Dance Company. She performed on numerous occasions in Bristol and Bath with the 3Motion dance group and Bristol Opera. While in England, she discovered the Graham dance technique thanks to Herbert DesLauriers and fell in love with it.

After moving to Canada in 2020, she began a more extensive study of the Graham technique through intensive classes and workshops at the Martha Graham School of Contemporary Dance. In 2023, she became a certified Graham technique teacher by completing a Graham Technique Teacher Training Course at M-Intensive University. She then decided to continue studying at MIU and earned a Horton Technique Teacher Certification in 2025.

Audrey currently runs Graham technique, Horton technique and contemporary dance workshops and classes in the Ottawa-Gatineau area. She is a private teacher at Centre d’Excellence Artistique de l’Ontario, a guest artist at Académie des Arts de Béatrice-Desloges and the co-director of Espace Danse Adagio.

Audrey is seen as a thorough and passionate instructor who always seeks to help students see and reach their potential in a safe environment, whatever their age or body shape. Her natural curiosity has also led her to explore unexpected dance fusions, such as Graham technique and Argentine tango.
