En septembre 2007, Fleur d’asphalte s’incorpore comme organisme à but non lucratif avec à son bord Lily Lapierre, Karine Rathle et Armand Martel. Dès le départ, le studio se donne comme mission le métissage des disciplines du corps dansant et de favoriser et faciliter la création, l'entraînement, et la diffusion pour les professionnels de la danse. La programmation du studio se modifie au fil des années, enrichie principalement par des artistes professionnelles qui viennent y enseigner. L’intérêt pour la danse devient l’amour du mouvement, par l’ajout de cours de yoga ou d’éducation somatique. En 2010, le studio reçoit sa première subvention, du ministère du Développement économique et de l’industrie qui permets au studio de faire plusieurs rénovations majeures et de mettre à jour ses outils de promotion. Fleur d’asphalte supporte la relève artistique depuis cinq ans à travers les Performances de la Mi-Lune, les Huis-Clos ou les résidences d’été.

The artists who taught at Fleur d'asphalte in the past: Ami Shulman, André Rodrigues, Andrew de Lotbinière Harwood, Angélique Wilkie, Anthea Browne, Bernard Fontbuté, Catherine Lessard, Darius Popielarski, David Flewelling, Élise Hardy, Gessica Paperini, Ghislaine Doté, Héloise Rémy, Isabelle Leclerc, Jo Leslie, Joe Danny Aurélien, Karen Montanaro, Lila-Mae G.Talbot, Linda Rabin, Marie-Ève Archambault, Marjolaine Auger, Maureen Shea, Maya, Menka Nagrani, Micheal Watts, Mylène Roy, Nigel Wolf, Piki Houde, Robert Tannion, Robin Gorn, Rosy Simas, Sarah Bild, Shawn Baichoo, Soufia Bensaïd, Sylvain Lafortune, Todd Stone, Tony Chog, Véronic Morin, Warwick Long, Ximena Moreno.
