She joined the company in 1995 at the request of Maurice B\u00e9jart, who had offered her the position of his secretary following her career as a nurse. Over the years spent by his side, until his passing in 2007, she became much more than a colleague: she was a trusted presence and an indispensable source of support, someone who knew his habits, understood his expectations and assisted him in every aspect of his daily life.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Following the choreographer\u2019s passing, she continued to serve the company with the same loyalty and dedication, providing invaluable support to Gil Roman from 2008 onwards, and later to Julien Favreau when he took over as Artistic Director in 2024. As Secretary of the Maurice B\u00e9jart Foundation since 2008, she witnessed nearly three decades of the company\u2019s history and became one of its most treasured keepers of memory.<\/p>\n

Always available and attentive, she was also someone the dancers and all members of staff could rely on. Her kindness, generosity and dedication, driven by her deep attachment to the B\u00e9jart Ballet Lausanne, will remain forever in the hearts and memories of all those who had the privilege of working alongside her.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

To her family, her loved ones and all those who had the privilege of knowing her, the company, the B\u00e9jart Ballet Lausanne Foundation and the Maurice B\u00e9jart Foundation extend their heartfelt condolences and deepest sympathies.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

She will remain forever in our memories and in the history of the company.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
