Louise Hadj

Louise Hadj will carry the Olympic Torch. This is her story:

Louise is a well-known dancer, renowned for both her performances on stage and her role in supervising other dancers for international concerts, alongside artists such as Beyoncé, Rihanna and Maître Gims. She was born in Beauvais, grew up there and still lives in the town. Always looking to innovate in the field of dance, she was one of the first to explore the concept of "model talent" and today contributes to the development of the art of movement in the United Arab Emirates.

In spite of her international commitments, Louise remains deeply attached to her hometown and is involved as much as possible in local life in Beauvais. She is keen to share her passion for dance with as many people as possible. For Louise, the Olympic Torch embodies the values of cohesion and fraternity, which are particularly dear to her heart. For her, it will be an immense joy and an honour to be able to carry this symbolic Olympic Torch.
