Véronique began her training in Tap and Jazz at the age of 9. Immediately passionate about dance, she pursued classical ballet training at Pierre-Laporte School, followed by the Quebec Superior School of Dance. During her training, she also performed as an interpreter with the Contemporary Classical/Art/Jazz dance company, led by Johanne Boivin (Ballet Jazz de Montréal) and France Dufresne (Eddy Toussain). Throughout her years with the company, she worked with renowned teachers and choreographers such as Howard Richard, Françoise Liboiron, Marc Forest, and Jean-Jacques Pillet.
She then transitioned into urban dance, joining the Urban Dance Society (U.D.S) led by Marvin Baptiste. After a few years with the company, she traveled to Mexico to dance in productions such as The Lion King, Beauty and the Beast, and Moulin Rouge. Upon her return, she enrolled in the International Visa Program at Step On Broadway in New York City. There, she trained with choreographers such as Joe Lanteri, Rapsody, Brian Freedman, Jay T, and many others. She then joined the ranks of the UNKUT Production company, directed by Alexandra "Spicey" Lande. With this company, she performed in several events including the famous Choreographer's Ball (in New York, Toronto, and Los Angeles), as well as alongside artists like Jabbawockeezs, Chamilionnaire, and Flip Mode Squad.
Véronique has also danced for various television shows and events such as En Direct de l'Univers, Festival de Jazz, Juste Pour Rire, Les Francofolies, Gala Artis, La Voix, La Voix Junior, and Chanteurs Masqués. She was also a cheerleader for the Montreal Alouettes. She has performed in several productions with the Montreal Opera, including operas such as Rusalka, Manon, Turandot, and the famous opera Carmen. She has also toured for several years with the Famous Live Band. She recently returned from a contract in Saudi Arabia, where she performed for Assala and Majid Almohandis.
Véronique is also a renowned choreographer and teacher with over 20 years of experience, both in Canada and internationally. She is also the co-founder of the Bravissimo competition.
