Some
Italians could have seen her at Milan
Pole Dance Studio, others in her performances during the National Pole
Dance Championship and many others have had the pleasure to meet her during one of her frequent workshops.
I’m
going to introduce Marion Crampe, alias
Mlle Jeanne, French international poledance champion. She’s a marveilluse
artist, a dancer full of energy that is doing her utmost as a teacher as well
as a performer.
This year has been really busy for her, artistically and professionally, working hard within the MPDS team. She trained herself a lot to enhance her technique as a contortionist on her own style. She
keeps on travelling a lot, meeting people all around the world and sharing her
passion with them. At the beginning of the year she was in Rio de Jainero Ultra
Modern Dance School, in South America, and several workshops will be held in
several South American countries. That’s why she’s also learning Portuguese and
samba for her sexy chair courses, waiting for 2016 Olympic Games!Then she moved to South Africa and came
back to Europe to hold other lessons and next steps will be US and Canada! In particular, this summer she’ll be at the Summer
Pole Camp on July with Natasha Wang, an aerial pole
performer who currently holds the titles of US Pole Dance Champion 2011 and
USPDF West Coast Champion 2010.
Marion pole
style is very similar to a classical dancer because she moves fluidly with
lightness on and off the pole with precision and beautiful lines. Her favourite move is “The eagle” and “Rainbow Marchenko”. She normally prefers to be focused on combos
instead of single moves, where she believes to be able to deploy better her
creativity. She doesn’t mind performing “Music box", being her target is to reach the same
level of contortion of the great Felix Cane, an
Australian professional dancer and world champion pole dancer, Cirque du Soleil performer, master instructor. She admits she particularly loves
those moves that allow the contortion of the body moving ahead, even though she’s convinced
are all sublimes by the use of flawlessness, flexibility and mastered tricks.
Her preferred
outfits are a simple bras, sexy shorts and her platforms. They form an integral
part of entertainment. Her fans help her keeping her body warmed and to hold the
pole because she doesn’t love poledancing when it’s cold. She rather prefers it's
very hot, to grip better the pole and to feel more flexible.
To perform she
loves a rock lent music repertory or soft sentimental love ballads. She needs
to feel emotions gushing from the song before dancing on it. But she also
likes the vibe of the moment.
During her free
time she keeps on dancing, more than going clubbing, with her friends but she
also loves night events when she dances any
kind of music, as easy in the South of France more than in Paris, although she
actually lives and spends the most part of her time in Milan.
Working along with lots of creative artists she
brilliantly succeeds in incorporating some of the emotional notes she feels
right into her choreography in a very flowly and lyrical way. But above all she can't help falling in love with this art, the pole, to which she's dedicated her whole life. Her secret wish when she was a child was to be a dancer. She prefers reading a book rather than watching tv, listening to any kind of music, especially " Iris" by Go go dolls, and eating grilled chicken cooked by her Dad. She's had a series of successes:

Experimented the art of pole dancing in France, the belief that dance is sensuous and graceful and all women are endowed with this gift to unravel their sensuality’s grew up in her. Some say dance is the language of the body and Marion argues dance is the language of the soul. She’s the epitome of femininity: an enrapturing smile, smooth lips, seductive eyes will make any man melt. Climbs and grips around the pole, slow contortions and speedy routine making her own hair whip wildly, with his unmistakable touch, at the same time powerful, elegant and sexy, could melt the ice-cold pole. Her near impeccable technique gives her the grace of an eagle and a princess of the stage.
Moreover, the MPDS Marion Crampe has recently taken part in the “poledanceitaly” project for the issue of an online poledance dictionnary, completely free, setting up several tricks where it is easy to find each move scheduled for each category and level of difficulty. Additionally to the pics, a short clip shows how each move is performed from the start to the end. It could be also a quirky peculiarity to find how moves can be chosen on the base of physical requirements necessary to perform them.
Marion Crampe looks like a fairy, breaking down at the center of the stage, charming and powerful, starting sliding up and down the pole in her shining, lyrical pole routine. Her acrobat dance leaves the amazed public totally hooked with the grace and elegance of her movements that seem to caress the air she runs across. It sounds like a cliche’ but she seems to bring her personality gifts from the inside out.
The Pole Art gets inspiration from many other forms of dance and other sports (such as rhythmic gymnastics, stationery rings), that involve and enhance endurance, muscolar strenght and flexibility. It’s an anaerobic and aerobic training whose stunts allow you to burn lots of calories building your body strenght with great toning and sculpting benefits for the best possible grips and moves coming out flying or in equilibrium, training each muscle of your body. It’s a sport that allows you to keep fit, toning and amuzing yourself, building confidence in your body and personality, redescovering your sensuality.
Marion Crampe,
is not only well gifted of all these physical qualities by mother nature but is also really lovely, patient and has
a very good sense of humour. She’s completement detached and disinhibited. She’s
beloved by many gooey fan girls and counts out about 2000 astounded friends on
Facebook for who she’s a sunray! Always good
tempered and smiling, she has a slight southern french accent and a great sex
appeal !

She turned into a full-fledged love affair with Poledance,
as we said, when she arrived in Paris in 2006, enchanted by
showbiz and nightlife sparkles.
How we could blame her? Pole
dancing is the latest addictive phenomenon sweeping the nation, and Pole
exercise brings you really impressive elements, such as the spins, poses, body inverts and floor work on the pole. Women
and men contorted into unimaginable shapes, instructors and students
seemingly levitated. These human beings seem to achieve the impossible.

She trains her muscles for hours everyday in front of stunning floor-to-ceiling mirrors in which she can check and correct their form, make sure her moves and lines are perfect! She knows how nerves can get the better of you having a swing on the four metre poles!
Her musicality is astonishing - when she dances with a simple dancehall song with a repetitive beat, she finds the undercurrent and rides it with tiny accents climbing herself up the pole backwards and having fabulous head dives, really surprising and exciting to watch. Her lyrical style is sometimes emotive, always sensational! She performs every routine or freestyle from the tips of her fingers all the way to every pointed toe. She creates imaginary lines with her body that you couldn't even think to be possible.
My goal here is to try to give you all an overall idea of the development of her career and to share some of her unique perspectives on dance and moves. Well, make sure then to keep you updated on all this blurry flurry of activities, just stay tuned in her various social networks and pole dance online forums and websites and don’t miss out next Marion Crampe events! Just to have no qualms…you could never forgive yourself!
