@ambre_victoire
Ambre-Victoire is a movement artist whose journey began in dance and evolved through her love for surfing, particularly longboarding. Surfing became more than a sport—it became a spiritual practice and a form of self-expression, where the fluidity of the waves and her body intersected in a dance with nature.
Fusing dance, yoga, and surfing, she has cultivated a unique movement practice that reflects both artistic creativity and personal growth. Along the way, Ambre-Victoire has won prestigious surfing contests and collaborated with artists to create inspiring content.
Her journey is a continuous exploration of movement as a sacred art, a way to deepen the connection between body, mind, and spirit. For Ambre-Victoire, movement is a language of the soul—a practice of self-discovery and authenticity.
