Amélie Joannides

Amélie Joannides is a French-Greek multidisciplinary artist whose practice explores the intersections of dance, music, performance, and embodied practices.

She spent a decade as a professional dancer with the Paris National Opera Ballet, where she worked with leading choreographers across classical ballet and contemporary dance and performed on the world’s most prestigious stages. This experience shaped a deep understanding of the body as both an artistic instrument and a powerful medium of communication.

Her practice has since expanded into music and acting, including a role in the Prime Video series Étoile. Alongside her artistic work, Amélie has pursued extensive studies in somatics and yoga, developing an approach rooted in embodiment, presence, and the relationship between body and mind.

She now teaches and shares these practices internationally, working across artistic, educational, and transformative contexts. She has contributed to international initiatives including Global Artivism and ChangeNOW, exploring the potential of embodied practices as tools for health improvement, collective awareness, and social change.

Through her multidisciplinary work, Amélie seeks to create experiences that ignite new ways of experiencing ourselvesand the world around us.
