Our History

Philippe Gaulier founded his school in 1980. Travel shapes young people. As does freedom.“I was young. I had invented a game which consisted of throwing a ball over the branch of a tree in Parc Monceau. The opposing team had to catch the ball without it touching the ground. Passers-by stopped and watched. They envied us.”

1980  Paris; In Paris, Francoise Dolto et Madeleine Milhaud assisted in the creation of the school. They lent the remaining funds that were required .
