Julien Desforges is a movement artist and entrepreneur from Montreal, Canada. Founder of Slackline Mtl, he has been deeply invested in practicing, performing and teaching the balance art of slacklining and highlining for the past 15 years.
His endless curiosity for healing and optimal living also guided him into breathwork, dance, kung fu, yoga, acroyoga meditation and most recently, hair hanging, the ancient chinese practice of suspending from the hair.
His future goal is to design and build play spaces, where communities can experience these movement, healing and play practices.
