Born in
Montreal, Canada, Stéphanie
Dalphond began training at the
age of nine. At the age of fourteen
she became one of the first Canadians
to be accepted at the School
of the Paris Opera on a
full scholarship. Two years
later, she accepted a contract
with Les
Grands Ballets Canadiens,
becoming the youngest dancer
in the company’s history.
During her six seasons with
the company, she excelled both
in the classical and the contemporary
repertoire. She started to freelance
in Montreal until American choreographer
Kevin O’Day offered her
a soloist contract with his
new company in Mannheim, Germany.
Stéphanie danced with the company
for a year before going back
to freelancing in Europe. For
the following two years, she
has worked with some of the
best contemporary European choreographers
such as Serge Campardon, Veronika
Riz and Antonio Gomes. She has
guested in Galas in Switzerland,
Italy and Germany.
She joined in Compañía
Nacional de Danza in September, 2005.
