Rachid Hedli founded Compagnie Niya in 2011, the culmination of years of collaboration with various professional companies and a career as a performer, dancer, educational speaker. During these years, he has refined his style and claims the contemporary hip hop universe of his dance, always in confrontation with unexpected musical universes integrating image and speech.
"The Company participates in artistic research laboratories dedicated to research and innovation and activates a proposal for creation, distribution and awareness with the desire not to lock itself into one style."
Roubaix, France
"The city of Roubaix bought the Coliseum building in 1980 and the Ballet du Nord, then a branch of the Lille Opera, moved there in 1983 under the direction of Alfonso Catà, a Cuban dancer and choreographer in the neoclassical style, in the line of Balanchine. It became the National Choreographic Center (CCN) in 1985, a new system of the Ministry of Culture aimed at promoting the development of classical and contemporary dance on French territory. The Ballet du Nord separates from the Opera and thus becomes the bearer of new missions in Nord-Pas-de-Calais."
Teamwork is Paramount
Teamwork is the ability to work together towards a common vision. The ability to direct individual accomplishments towards organizational objectives. It is the fuel that allows us to attain outstanding results.
