About
Alongside her 15-year career in Canada and Europe as a professional dancer, Marissa developed a passion for the GYROTONIC® method. She has been able, thanks to extensive professional training, to become well-skilled in physical preparation and recovery.
Marissa began her dancing career in Toronto, her hometown, with the National Ballet of Canada. After 6 years, she continued her career in Europe, dancing notably for the Dortmund Ballet, the Royal Ballet of Flanders, the Royal Swedish Ballet and the Lyon Opera Ballet. She has worked with internationally renowned choreographers and artists such as Jiri Kylian, William Forsythe, Mats Ek, Maguy Marin, Johan Inger, Crystal Pite and many others. A very versatile dancer who has traveled through many dance currents and techniques, her experience has allowed her to understand the full capacity of the human body, whether physically, mentally and emotionally. Certified in the GYROTONIC® method since 2014, Marissa has been able to train many people across very different profiles. She has extensive experience in rehabilitation care and injury prevention thanks to her extensive knowledge of the human body (anatomy and physiology), and her personal experiences. Gifted with a keen eye for detail (personalized analysis), she has a passion for supporting people who wish to achieve their health and fitness goals. Alongside the Gyrotonic method, Marissa continues to dance as a freelancer and teaches pole dancing, choreography and floor barre classes at Spin or Tricks Lyon.
