After earning a Bachelor’s in Contemporary Dance from Université du Québec à Montréal, Soraïda returned to settle in Trois-Pistoles, Bas-Saint-Laurent. Drawing from her experience as a performer in Quebec and France, she developed her career as a teacher, performer, and choreographer, earning the Bas-Saint-Laurent Emerging Artist Award in 2011. In 2015, she founded Mars elle danse, serving as its general and artistic director and choreographer. Her works—Belles Bêtes, Lignes de force, and Élégante chair—have been presented at festivals, theaters, and museums across Quebec. In 2022, she received the prestigious Conseil des arts et des lettres du Québec (CALQ) Artist of the Year Award for Bas-Saint-Laurent in recognition of her body of work.
Deeply rooted in her region, Soraïda also organizes cultural events, including the award-winning festival Au quai, on danse! (winning MRC des Basque’s favorite). In summer 2023, she traveled to Tunis for the Journées chorégraphiques de Carthage festival and to Germany for a two-month co-creation residency at Fabrik Potsdam, a choreographic center. As a long-term artist-in-residence at Théâtre du Bic for the next two years, she will create and present her upcoming solo work, Les Petits désordres.
