Louiseanne Wong

Email: Louiseanne@espritconcrete.com // Born in Hong Kong, Louiseanne's first forms of movement training was ballet and swimming starting at the age of four. Since then she began her curious search through dance and music, pursuing a Bachelor of Music degree at the University of Manchester, taking her training in Hip-Hop, Ballet and Contemporary Dance to Los Angeles and then studying MA Choreography at Trinity Laban Conservatoire of Music and Dance, London. In 2015 she encountered Art du Deplacement/Parkour in London. She found the ethos and training atmosphere very welcoming: self-development, non-competitiveness, community spirit, and longevity. It shifted her focus in life from a performance-driven practice to self-development through movement. Louiseanne's expertise and passion allows her to combine Art du Deplacement with Dance and Circus as a means of self-discovery. She is interested in how cultural heritage, gender and identity affects a performer's relationship to training. She believes in the concept of working on the self in turn to help others better, and to express oneself as authentic as possible. She views the body as non-gender, just humans training together. She has a wide understanding of the body in both athletic and artistic contexts, having performed in various types of multidisciplinary work both indoors and outdoors around the world. Always striving to reach her full potential, her athlete and performing artist journey is under the tutelage of Esprit Concrete, based in London. // IG www.instagram.com/louiseannewong // FB www.facebook.com/wonglouiseanne // Twitter www.twitter.com/louiseannewong // Esprit Concrete website www.espritconcrete.com
