Benjamin Kahn  is a dancer and choreographer based in Brussels. He studied dramaturgy and theatre at the University of Aix en Provence and the Conservatoire de Rennes, and is graduated from ESAC (École Supérieure des Arts du Cirque) in Belgium.

Following his studies, he worked with choreographers such as Philippe Saire, Benjamin Vandewalles, Nicole Beutler, Ben Riepe, Frédéric Flamand, Maud Le Pladec, Egle Budvytyte and Alessandro Sciaronni.

He is also an outside eye and dramaturgist for other projects (Cuir / Cie Un loup pour l'homme, Darkmatter / Cherish Menzo among others) and teaches dance at the CNAC, ESAC and conservatoires.

Since 2019 he created his own projects.

Seeing dance and choreography as powerful political tools, he is particularly interested in constructing and deconstructing the way we view individual and collective bodies. Drawing on the interdisciplinarity of his background and the richness of his studio encounters with singular performers, he creates pieces that combine texts, precise choreographic writing and powerful sound and light landscapes to question the issues of the society. Between 2019 and 2023 he will be creating a trilogy of solos :  “Sorry, But I Feel Slightly Disidentified... “ (2019), "Bless the Sound that Saved a Witch like me" (March 2023) and The Blue Hour (June 2023), questioning projections onto bodies, the gaze, and the link between the intimate and the collective.
