Fauve Hautot

Fauve Hautot (born 3 March 1986) is a French dancer and choreographer.

Fauve Hautot was born in Dieppe, her father was accountant with a passion for dance, and her mother was a dance teacher. She has an older sister, Ashley, and a younger brother, Calliope. She grew up in the village of Saint-Vaast-Dieppedalle (Seine-Maritime). Her parents chose the name Fauve "after seeing the series Mistral's Daughter, in which a heroine is named Fauve".

She began dancing at age five with her brother Calliope, starting with Latin dances.
