Les alizés in French translated the trade wind is a warm, humid wind near the equator, blowing steadily from east to west, rising and causing the formation of numerous cumulonimbus clouds.
Alizé is a 1980s Quebecois drink made with red fruits and slightly tangy with lime.
Les Alizés is a French troupe of flying trapeze artists from the mid-20th century, whose motto "Nothing is impossible" leads them to perform in the most prestigious European big tops.
Alizé is, above all, a little bit of all of these things. French living in Quebec. A circus performer since a young age, she swings from trapeze to trapeze whenever gravity challenges her. With two trapeze artists as parents, there was no doubt about it; they taught her the art and the love of high-flying.
Having grown up surrounded by large flying trapeze companies, the collective is, for her, the key to the success of all these projects. Traveling across Europe as part of contracts with her company, Tout Fou To Fly, as a child, she was accustomed to the stage from a very young age. She performed her first solo shows at the age of 7 on her static trapeze.
Eventually based on the French Riviera, she continued her studies there alongside extensive acrobatic training at the circus school Tout Fou To Fly and Co., founded by her father, Jean-Michel Poitreau, as well as gymnastics, dance, and music at the National Conservatory. At 17, she joined the National Circus School of Rosny-sous-Bois, where the swinging trapeze became her preferred apparatus, and then the National Circus School of Montreal two years later. A skilled ground acrobat, she is particularly drawn to aerial disciplines, such as the flying trapeze, but also practices hand-to-hand, acrobatic cycling, lifts, and balances. Carrying a message committed to the representation of women on various stages around the world, she aims to challenge, through her solo swinging trapeze acts and in synchro duets with her partner Malou Latrompette, their ability to move through the air in an unusual way and to produce extremely complex technical elements.
