Born in 1990, native of Yverdon- les-Bains, Marc Oosterhoff obtained a Bachelor’s degree in physical theatre at the Accademia Teatro Dimitri in 2012. After his studies, he spent six months in China training in martial arts and then continued his practice of free-running and circus acrobatics. During two years, he worked as an actor and in 2014, he was admitted at La Manufacture (Lausanne), and was part of the first batch of students in the Bachelor’s degree in Contemporary Dance.

In 2016 Marc performed Take care of yourself, his first solo, at Les Quarts d’Heure de Sévelin. This solo based on physical risk was selected for the Tanzfactor 2018 tour, and also selected by BE FESTIVAL for two tours in Spain and in the United Kingdom. Since then, the show continues to be programmed all over the world.

In 2017 and 2018, he collaborated with Cédric Gagneur by choreographing Palette(s) and then La Caresse des pavés. In 2019, he created his second solo, Les Promesses de l’incertitude, with musician Raphael Raccuia. In 2021 came Lab Rats (at FIT in 2021), a duet with Owen Winship, created as part of La Bâtie-Festival de Genève.
