Trained in French folk dance, Denis Mercader has specialized in the repertoire of Massif Central bourrées, with a preference for the style danced in Aubrac.

He is dedicated to translating the particular style of bourrées, danced in Aubrac and within the Auvergnats community in Paris, originating from the documentation collected and restored in the 20th century.

The workshops he offers in Vialfrè aim to understand and practically embrace the choreographies and style of Aubrac dancers to enrich their own interpretation of the bourrée. This year, he will also propose a view of the mazurkas danced in Auvergne.
