camin aktion is a production office and creative agency with social impact, founded in 2009.

Since summer 2026, a partnership agreement has strengthened our shared dynamic with the Agora, Cité internationale de la danse, in Montpellier, which now hosts our office. We maintain our ties with Halle Tropisme, where we had been based since it opened in 2019: our research space on the body and movement, La Félicité, remains at the Ateliers Tropisme.

The organisation supports companies, collectives and individual artists in the performing arts, with a strong affinity for dance — here, a focus on the dances of today, on aesthetics rooted in hiphop culture and related forms.

For these artists, art and culture are vehicles of emancipation and social connection. They engage with diverse audiences, build lasting transmission work, and question the ideas that shape our world today and tomorrow.

They develop innovative forms — for the stage, for public space, for natural settings or in situ — nourished by art film, visual arts and architecture. Specific formats are offered to school audiences by artists committed to arts and cultural education.

In a logic of pooling resources, we make available to them the know-how and experience accumulated by our team over nearly thirty years, well before camin aktion was founded, with a deep knowledge of the cultural sector, of theatres, festivals and companies. La Félicité is open to them as a space for research and for rehearsing short forms.

camin’cubator is a support scheme for emerging artists: newly arrived choreographers building a new artistic and personal path in France, and young choreographers still in training or recently graduated.

The HYPE OCC festival, created in 2023, is a camin aktion initiative. Regional in scope, it celebrates the dances rooted in hiphop culture and their related aesthetics. Built as a network with many partners across Occitanie and spread over five départements, it presents regional, national and international companies: choreographic creations, works in progress, battles, documentary films and video creation, talks, masterclasses and workshops. Depending on each venue’s programming line, music and graffiti also find their place.

The sociocultural programme #JeSuis, run by camin aktion since 2020, works for artistic and human mediation, with a strong focus on young people — in particular unaccompanied minors, refugees, and local youth. Regular cultural outings, year-round artistic practice and the development of performative forms make up its activities, carried out throughout the year. In this way we build lasting bonds with audiences considered distant from cultural provision, to the benefit of the partner venues associated with the programme.

For the corporate sector, we put our knowledge of the artistic field and our cultural engineering at the service of delegated production, to create bespoke events. Shared values are given body and movement, for an added value in events and communication tailored to each client’s wishes.
