I was born in Bordeaux in the south of France, where wine and oysters are a passion!

My first real passion though, was dancing.

I began dancing at the age of 6 because of my mum and her love for dance. I love ballet and always will, it gave me my first taste for art, but the pressure of ballet was not for me. After I received my ballet certificate at the age of 18, I was introduced to the world of traditional french cabaret, full of glitter and class. At the age of 19, I received my first contract as a showgirl.

I worked in two beautiful cabarets in France; “L’Ange Bleu” & ”Royal Palace” where I performed the French Can-Can and I had the opportunity to dance with beautifully extravagant and sparkling costumes. As soon as I started this I knew deep inside that I had found the expression of art I was searching for at the time. For me it was the perfect mixture of dancing alongside the feeling of femininity and freedom! I received my third contract in the famous “Friedrichstdat-Palast” which brought me to Berlin, the city which I now call ‘home’.

In the meantime, I began to discover Berlin’s underground art, shows and parties which is where I discovered the world of Burlesque. At Friedrichstadt-Palast I was one of 60 dancers in a kick-line and I slowly realised that Burlesque could be a logical next chapter in my carrier and represented exactly what I was missing; A unique, free and powerful character with comedy and glamour. I quit my contract shortly after this realisation and then “Tara D’Arson” was born.

I have discovered many aspects of my personality I never expected from burlesque. I began to choreograph, trained in fire, and I founded my own show ‘Die Gl’Amouresque’ with my partner Sally Cowdin.

“Die Gl’Amouresque” is a Berlin based burlesque and cabaret show with four professionally trained dancers.

I’m also choreographing each year a diner show .

I’m now traveling the world with my own acts I created which symbolise the experience I had during my early carrier and through the inspiration from the people I meet around the world and who make me feel the way I feel today.

Art is everywhere if you truly open your eyes to it. My motto is to never look back and to always look forward. Life is too short to have regrets.

The show must go on ⭐
