Born in Paris in 1945, Guizerix is described as "tall and muscular, with a brooding Basque face".[1] He studied dance privately before he joined the Paris Opera Ballet (1964).[2] He was nominated etoile (star) eight years later. His wife, Wilfride Piollet, is also a former etoile of the Paris Opera Ballet.[3] They created their own company in 1980.

gollark: I sort of like writing JS but feel guilty about it because my code will inevitably break when it hits an error condition of some sort and/or a dependency implodes, Rust is a much nicer language in various ways but stricter when I *do not actually care* about shaving off a few ms and garbage collection is fine, I tried OCaml but the tooling isn't *great* and the libraries seem to be lacking.
gollark: It's among the least bad ones though.
gollark: I NEVER really felt entirely satisfied.
gollark: If there was a programming language which I found satisfying to use, I would be significantly happier with programming.
gollark: I mind MANY programming languages.
