Joelle Fontaine

A born-and-bred South East Londoner, dancer, creative director, movement coach, founder of At Your Beat, and a Nike Trainer of eight years. Joelle has been dancing for over 20 years, and throughout that time he has had the opportunity to work with incredible brands including Nike, Google, Vogue, Spotify and Meta, as well as fashion designers from Sophia Webster to Jean Paul Gaultier, and artists from Rina Sawayama to FLO. Joelle believes that everyone has a version of themselves that wants to move, express themselves and take up space. My job is to help bring that person out and make them feel confident enough to stay out. Not just in a dance class, but in everyday life. Movement has changed his life. It’s given him confidence, community, purpose and a way to tell his story when words weren’t enough. That’s why everything he creates, whether it’s a class, a performance, a community project or an event, is built around helping people connect with themselves and with each other. Dance is his life, and community is the breath that keeps it alive.
