Berdahi is a dance company based in Paris, France ("association loi 1901") founded in 2017. Eleni Karachontziti, senior lecturer in education sciences in INSPE Normandie Rouen-Le Havre, is Berdahi's president. Sandra Jabalera-Llorca, photographer, is the vice-president and Andreas Goudelis, physics researcher in Clermont-Ferrand University, is the treasurer. Currently Berdahi employs up to 10 artists and educators per year, using fixed-term contracts ("intermittents du spectacle") : these are dancers, actors, musicians, movement educators, technicians, costume designers. For 2022, Berdahi had budgetary resources at a level of 22700 €, coming from performance sells, regular classes and workshops. In previous years, Berdahi has received co-production funds from institutions such as Birmingham University, Paris-Saclay University, Sorbonne University, as well as artistic mobility grants from European programmes such as "Be Mobile Create Together" and "i-Portunus", managed by the Goethe Institute and the French Institute among others.
The purpose of the association is the creation, implementation and promotion of artistic and cultural projects, in particular live performances and workshops, which mainly evolve around the theme of the body and the exploration of its intercultural and interdisciplinary potentials.
