Mouaze Konaté is recognized as one of the leading exponents of Parisian salsa.
These choreographic creations are rich and varied, as is his teaching. Thanks to these countless years of experience, Mouaze "El Profesor" masters pedagogy at the cutting edge of his art.
A charismatic character and a great dancer with an elegant style, he gives space and value to his dancer in all circumstances.
It's also with his friend Yoshi, the organizer of the PISC (Paris International Salsa Congress) since 2016.
Mouaze is a complete and committed artist.
Salsa represents his passion, his profession and his whole life.

Martial arts were his first vocation. A black belt in karate, a teacher at the US Créteil, several times a medallist, he did his military service in the Joinville battalion (high-level sports section).
In 1997 he began Cuban salsa with Roberto El Cubano at the Montecristo, then Puerto Rican salsa with Wilson Sither at the Marais Dance Center.
In 1999, he joined the Salsabor company, directed by Clifford Jasmin and Valérie Mitchelson. So many memories and shows. Europe, the USA and Puertorico.
Puertorico will remain an important place and date for him because it is there that in July 2004, Mouaze will follow a Salsa training at the University of San Juan supervised by Eddie Torres "The Mambo King" and many renowned dancers and musicians.
He has trained and collaborated with multiple talented dancers (Séverine Cartesse, Aude Michon, Fanny Frosini, Nathalie, Ella Jauk, Kristel Cauvelet, Sonia Cavallaro, Coya Asopo) to still have the same passion on stage alongside his partner from Spain, Sara Milan.
Mouaze's stage performances are as rich and varied as his interest in different art forms.
Established in the audiovisual world: he worked on the music video Candela by Luis Aseth; Choreographer for Celebrity dancing, Dancing with the stars on TF1, Dancing Show, Vivement Dimanche (La Chance aux Chansons) on France2, and it's my choice on France3. He has had the opportunity to accompany on stage stars such as Eddie Palmieri, Spanish Harlem Orchestra and Andy Montanez.
