Sergine has been a professional dancer at the 20th Century Ballet of M. Béjart, Ballet des Flandres, Choreographic Theater of Rennes, Ballet of Nancy, Scapino Ballet, Bonn Ballet and Tanit Dance Theater. Meanwhile, she has always been a passionate photographer.
After a workshop in China with Guy Le Querrec from the MAGNUM Photos Agency, she naturally decided to become a professional photo reporter and contemporary dance photographer.
“Regards d’Afrique” has been her first major work to win the International Leica Contest Award – Fascination du Noir et Blanc.
Several works such as “The Fall of the Berlin Wall 1989-1999- 2009”, “The Life of the Gypsies in Alentejo”, Tibet with “Losar feasts in Labrang”,” Acupuncture for all”, “In the heart of Tibetan Buddhism”, Jazz with “Corps Accords”, … lead to various exhibitions and publications.
As a passionate dancer, she continues to photograph live performances, and especially Michèle Noiret’s work for about 30 years. This intimate collaboration will lead to the edition of “Territoires intimes – Michèle Noiret – La danse-cinéma” (ed. Alternatives théâtrales) in March 2009.
“Thanks to her passion for dance, Sergine Laloux photographs the art of movement and composition, without pathos nor voyeurism, with a particular sense of frames and forms.” Jean-Marie Wynants, Le Soir.
Sergine discovered Ashtanga Yoga in 1998. Since 2000, she practices with Jean-Claude Garnier, who’ll teach her to become a professional Yogi Master.

In 2017, she joined him for a workshop in Berlin and a retreat in Italy.

In her multiple lives as a dancer, photographer and now Yoga teacher, transmission has always been part of her concerns and her thoughts towards pedagogy.
