TRISTAN SAGON (1999) is a performer, choreographer, and director based in Paris. Coming from the hip-hop scene, he began teaching at the age of 16 before joining a training program in Lyon, where he deepened his choreographic research and developed his work as a performer.

His career quickly led him to collaborate with international figures in dance such as the collective (LA)HORDE, Amy Gardner, Yvann Alexandre, Sharon June, Anton Lachky, where he established his contemporary dance practice. Alongside his stage work, he has also developed a practice in the fashion world with Adidas and Issey Miyake, as well as in music and visual media, contributing to projects for artists such as Calvin Harris, Charlotte Cardin, Disclosure, and Ellie Goulding.

In 2023, his career expanded into acting, working alongside Sandra Hüller and Romane Bohringer in productions directed by Ivo Van Hove and Christophe Perton, and later with India Hair and Éric Cantona. Through this experience, he developed a strong interest in directing actors, revealing a powerful connection between acting and movement.

After 6 years exploring choreographic pieces, feature films, music videos, theatre, fashion, and live music performances, he gradually moved closer to direction. In 2025, he collaborated with Luxembourgish artist Edsun on movement and stage direction, and later signed the choreography for the film Les Matins merveilleux by Avril Besson, selected at the Cannes Film Festival.

Alongside director Nestor Benedini, he co-founded BELHANI©, a collective developing projects at the intersection of film, exhibition, and performance through movement. Together, they collaborate with artists across various disciplines through projects developed between Paris and beyond.
