After training in theater, Sylviane Martineau branched out into contemporary dance, receiving her training at UQAM, where in 1982 she was part of the first cohort of university dance graduates in Quebec. It was at this point that she met Jean-Pierre Perreault, with whom she collaborated for over fifteen years. She also danced for Daniel Soulières, Tassy Teekman, Michèle Rioux and Alain Francoeur. She ended her career as a performer in 2000.
At the same time, she developed an expertise in arts management and production direction, which she put to work for the Fondation Jean-Pierre Perreault, Danse-Cité, Le fils d’Adrien danse and Diagramme gestion culturelle, among others. She taught career management at the École de danse contemporaine de Montréal for 9 years.
Always committed to defending the rights of dancers and concerned about the socio-economic situation of artists, she served for six years on the Board of Directors of Union des artistes and for fifteen years on the Board of Directors of Caisse de la Culture.
From 2005 to 2020, she held the position of Cultural Advisor – Dance at the Conseil des arts de Montréal. Since then, she has been self-employed as a manager, mainly with DLD and Compagnie Catherine Gaudet.
This training, offered by the Regroupement québécois de la danse, is made possible thanks to the financial support of the Quebec government, through the Intervention-Compétences program administered by Compétence Culture.
