Théo Vanpop

Théo was born in France and grew up in Roubaix. He started dancing at a local dance school at the age of ten. A few months later, he started ballet in the school École du Ballet du Nord in Roubaix. Six years later he was accepted into the Rudra Béjart School in Lausanne, Switzerland which is where he started his professional dance formation. 

After graduating in 2019, Théo joined De Dutch Don’t Dance Division in The Hague under the directorship of Thom Stuart and Rinus Sprong. There, he approached contemporary dance styles and had the chance to discover repertoire from Jiri Kylian and Nils Christie. Two years later he participated with Valencia Dancing Forward in Spain and worked with many choreographers such as Alba Castillo, Bryan Arias, Gustavo Ramirez and Jenna Lee. In January 2022, he took part of a short project with Taiat Danza and had the chance to perform in Italy.

Théo joined Ballet Ireland in 2022 for the Bold Moves programme.
