2:17 p.m., Chaillot, National Dance Theatre,  Paris 16.

Today, It ’s been 6 years that  I have been dancing every day without exception for us, for our time, to make every day count. Over the past 6 years, the “Minute of Dance” has seen many events. What is most important to me today is to continue to ensure that we share what drives us and makes our hearts beat. We need to think, speak, imagine and question the world together. We need art to activate poetic, ethical, and truly magical dimensions of existence that make life worth living.

For this special occasion, I invited professionals to demonstrate, by dancing, their support for the essential dimensions carried by art and culture.

I dedicate this minute to all of us, which brings joy to six years of daily dancing. Thank you to all those who wanted to join, some crossing France to be there. Thank you to those who, unable to make it, accompanied us with their wishes.

Thanks to the Chaillot dream team and to Didier Deschamps.

Tomorrow I am starting a 7th year.

Thank you to you who accompany me.
