Dina Morisset

Background

Amandine Morisset, better known as Dina Morisset, hails from Saint-Georges-sur-Baulche, a commune in north-central France. She has won the hearts of dance lovers around the world with her passion and consummate dancing ability. Before becoming famous, she earned a Master’s degree in demography (the statistical study of populations) and worked for a research institute that conducts population surveys of the French people.

After her young cousins introduced her to the video game “Just Dance” in 2009, she was hooked. She is widely known as ‘Dina on the dance floor’ and this is the place where she is happiest. Her dedication led to her fame in subsequent world e-sports records in the rhythm game “Just Dance.” She is a three-time French champion of “Just Dance” and vice-French champion. Her medals include the bronze and the silver medal at the ESWC’s “Just Dance World Cup” respectively, which made her the vice world champion in the 2017 edition. She trains four to five hours a day and has learned to execute about 120 different movements during even the most complex choreographies.

She carved such a niche around the “Just Dance” license that even when the team took a break, she remained the face and host of the Just Dance French Cup organized in 2019 by Ubisoft during the Paris Games Week. Dina is also well-versed in other genres of dance. In October 2019, she led “Fortnite” in the Guinness World Record for the largest number of people performing a routine of emotes from a video game.

She now creates animations about “Just Dance” at shows and festivals, organizing videos for workshops and at various events at conventions, and shopping centers for games and manga in France and around the world, as far as Brazil and Russia. As a “Just Dance” champion and ambassador, she showcases and performs the game on stage. Watch her shine online on her weekly streams on her Twitch and Youtube channels.
