Having worked as a dancer with a.o. Anne Teresa De Keersmaeker, David Zambrano and Pierre Droulers, Thomas Hauert, originally from Switzerland, founded his company ZOO in Brussels in 1998. Cows in Space, the first piece was immediately awarded at the Rencontres de Seine-Saint-Denis/Bagnolet. The company has since created more than 20 works, which have been performed in over 200 venues. The last group creation Efeu (a quartet) has been premiered in October 2022 and he is now working on a solo piece that will be presented in September 2024.

In addition to his work for ZOO, Thomas was also commissioned to create work for other companies including the Zurich Ballet (2010), Toronto Dance Theatre (2012), Candoco Dance Company (2013), Ballet de Lorraine (2018) and will create a piece for Dresden Frankfurt Dance Company in 2025.

Complementing his choreographic work, Hauert has developed an internationally recognized teaching method based on the movement research conducted with his company and he regularly teaches workshops worldwide.

Since 2013, Thomas Hauert is the artistic director of the new bachelor degree in contemporary dance at the Manufacture – Haute Ecole des Arts de la Scène in Lausanne.
