Testimonies

Reboot has transformed the way I work, especially in educational contexts. I now place greater importance on care: taking the time to think, setting a framework for group dance, asking myself how to begin an intervention/atelier, deconstructing automatisms of knowledge, and proposing celebratory rituals to bring pleasure into my practices.

I enjoy teaching as a space of exchange, learning as much as I teach, developing transversal relationships, and constantly questioning posture, speed, and hierarchy that underlie the act of teaching and of being “the one who knows.” I feel extremely fortunate to be part of this project, which deeply moved me emotionally and personally (as a former student, as an artist and educator, creator, project bearer, and festival co-director).

My Reboot journey constantly questions me, nourishes me, (re)charges me, and transforms me in my personal path as an educator, artist, and researcher. I experience spaces and moments filled with positive energy that allow us to collectively work toward creating better versions of the world of pedagogy — gentler, more caring, attentive, and inclusive.

I felt that we were aligned around a gentle revolution — agreeing to loosen authoritarianism, injunctions, domination, agreeing to say that we didn’t know everything but that we could act. Over three years, Reboot slowly infused my practices, my relationships with those I support in my pedagogy, my desires for workshops, and my pedagogical and artistic experiments. Reboot taught me about my limits, about what I could no longer tolerate, and about the frameworks I wanted to establish.
