Laure Colmard, eight-time French champion in Latin and Standard dances and gold medalist from the National Conservatory in Classical Dance, teamed up with Adrien Bisset, a digital platform expert, to revolutionize dance education through technology—without ever replacing in-person classes or teachers.

During one of her dance class, Laure met PhD. Laure Leroy, a computer scientist from Mines Paris specializing in musculoskeletal risk prevention, who was immediately drawn to the project.

Within weeks, the first prototype was developed, and DANC·R joined 104factory, the cultural startup incubator at CENTQUATRE Paris, to conduct research and test the market.
