Guilhem Chatir (1993) is a French dancer and choreographer of Moroccan origin, based in Brussels since 2014. His practice is rooted in the field of dance, at the crossroads of choreographic writing, radical physical commitment, and close dialogue with live music.

He trained at the Conservatoire national supérieur de musique et de danse de Paris, then continued his journey at P.A.R.T.S., Anne Teresa de Keersmaeker’s Brussels Based school. As a performer, Guilhem Chatir collaborates with many major figures of the choreographic scene. He has notably danced for Wim Vandekeybus, Akram Khan, Yoann Bourgeois, Boris Charmatz and Serge Aimé Coulibaly. These experiences within projects of contrasting aesthetics enrich his relationship to the body, dramaturgy, and the stage, shaping an artistic identity characterized by intensity, risk, and precision of gesture.

Alongside his work as a performer, he develops a personal choreographic approach. In 2022, he created Vertiges, a duet with violinist David Petrlik, set to Johann Sebastian Bach’s Partita No. 2 in D minor. This project marks a foundational stage in his work, affirming his interest in the relationship between dance and live music, as well as in physical states traversed by falling and momentum. In 2025, he created Ni Ni Ya Mo Mo, a piece for three dancers, which premiered at Les Halles de Schaerbeek in Brussels.

Through this creation, he continues his research on collective dynamics, plural identities, and cultural circulations, in connection with his Franco-Moroccan identity. Guilhem Chatir is associate artist at the Concertgebouw in Bruges (BE) from 2025 to 2027.
