Nadia Gabrieli Kalati, known by her stage name Nadéeya GK, is a Cameroonian-Italian choreographic artist, dancer, educator, curator and choreographer. A leading figure in the house dance scene in France and internationally, she has developed a distinctive artistic practice that brings together house dance, Pan-African dance traditions, embodied memory and contemporary performance.

Introduced to dance at an early age within a family where rhythm, voice and movement formed a living language, she first followed a self-taught path before immersing herself in hip hop culture and later house dance, notably under the mentorship of Ousmane Sy. A graduate of the École des Sables, the internationally renowned school of African dance founded by Germaine Acogny, she now pursues an artistic practice at the crossroads of continents, generations and collective memory.

A member of the Paradox-Sal collective, she performs in works including Queen Blood and One Shot. Her career has taken her to major international stages such as the Paris Opera, the Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater, the Lyon Dance Biennale and La Villette. She has collaborated with artists including Bintou Dembélé, Qudus Onikeku, Blick Bassy, Manu Dibango and Angélique Kidjo.

Through her company aKôT, she creates work deeply rooted in the notions of Roots • Rituals • Recall, where the body (re)emerges as a living archive, a space for transmission and a site of transformation. Created in 2025, SAWATA is her first choreographic work.
