elgium-based international dancer Rakiya is a surprising and accomplished dancer.

Passionate and dedicated, she has been able to make a name for herself both on national and international stages where her talents are widely sought after.

Determined and courageous, these characteristics have shaped her artistic and professional approach to dancing. She was trained hard from a very young age, and ever since, has kept on furthering her knowledge and acquiring new skills.

Conscious of the authenticity of all art forms, Rakiya draws her inspiration from the actual source, retrieves the essence, transforms it and revisits it in a sumptuous and theatrical manner. With an unquenchable thirst for knowledge, she undertakes numerous trips wherein she meets many people and interacts with different cultures, all of which allow her to enrich her creativity.

Being of Arabic and Spanish origin, her roots delve deep within this cultural mix; somewhere between fusion and divergence, Rakiya has been able to develop her singularity.

Thanks to the richness of her multicultural traditions, she has given birth to a unique style that oscillates between an authentic and contemporary style, sensuality and power, and abandonment and provocation.

Charismatic and intriguing, Rakiya rarely leaves her audience unmoved.

As a very creative artist, Rakiya has diversified her artistic universe throughout multiple projects.

As a result, she has devoted herself just as much to show design as to the development of choreographies.

Additionally, she is very invested in the formation of her own dance crew. She is also very involved in the development of her own line of clothing, a line dedicated to the modern dancer who wishes to stray off the beaten path. But above and beyond, her true passion is teaching, a passion that she is able to cultivate during festivals, vocational training and through her dance school where she ensures a structured environment and pedagogy.

In a less typical manner, Rakiya completes this teaching through dance therapy, a fulfilling approach that stimulates liberating emotions for the body and soul.
