Iām Lamia, Indian Fusion Dance Mentor
& Embodiment Guide
Ā
I believe the body is not a machine to discipline,
but a sacred landscape to inhabit.
Iām a professional dancer, yoga teacher and mentor based in Italy, devoted to Indian Fusion Bellydance as a path of embodiment, artistry and inner truth.
My work lives at the crossroads of tradition and intuition - where precise technique meets devotion, and movement becomes a living prayer.
For over 15 years Iāve danced, taught and performed across 20+ countries, guiding hundreds of dancers back into their bodies with clarity, depth and respect for cultural roots.
Today, I share this path while raising my little one alongside my chef husband, grounded by simple rituals: books, herbal teas, sea walks and tarot whispers.

My Story
Ā
Dance found me when my body was asking to be remembered.
I began dancing at 18, searching for a way back to myself after years of disconnection and silence. Bellydance became the first doorĀ then yoga, then Fusion - each practice slowly awakening something ancient and wild within me.
A single glimpse of Tribal Fusion changed everything.
Even when discouraged, my body knew. I kept listening.
What followed was a leap of faith: an injury, the loss of my 9-to-5 job, and the decision to go all in. I travelled, studied, practiced relentlessly - learning from masters across the world and weaving together theatre-dance, contemporary dance, yoga and embodied research.
In 2012, Indian classical dance transformed my life again.
Under the guidance of my teacher Nuria Sala Grau, I earned a BA cum laude in BharatanatyamĀ at the Conservatory of Vicenza, deepening my studies in Indian music, Sanskrit,Ā mudra language and sacred geometry of the body.
This is where Indian Fusion Bellydance was truly born for me:
a meeting point between discipline and soul, structure and surrender.
Since then, Iāve taught and performed internationally and in recent years Iāve brought my work online, giving birth to D.E.V.I. Indian Fusion Program, my signature offer, and later becoming a certified pregnancy, birth and post-natal yoga teacher.
I remain an eternal student - currently devoted to the study of Natyashastra andĀ Karana, where dance, ritual and cosmology meet.
My Approach
Ā
I donāt just teach choreography.
I guide dancers into embodied intelligence.
My approach is rooted in:
ā¦Ā precise, grounded technique
ā¦Ā cultural awareness and respect
ā¦Ā deep listening to the body
ā¦Ā dance as spiritual and aesthetic practice
Here, movement is not only decoration.
Mudra is not an accessory.
Artistry is not performance - it is presence.
Through Indian Fusion Bellydance, yoga and mentorship, I help dancers cultivate strength without rigidity, devotion without dogma, and expression without losing their center.
This work is for dancers who feel the call to go deeper - to remember their body as a temple, their movement as language, and their dance as a living offering.
