The world needs that special woman inside of you.

Hi, I am Kaouthar,

an academician, speaker, dancer, trainer, dedicated to helping you become the woman you most want to be.

A Tunisian girl with nothing less than a dream, passion and unshakable optimism, I’m grateful to have become an international game-changer in Women’s empowerment and the Art of Being Feminine.

From the ghettos in North-Africa to the big world as playground, I’m proud for inspiring and helping thousands of women around the world like you to unleash their feminine power.

People often ask me “how did an oppressed African-Muslim girl become a role model for women’s empowerment?”

CONNECT WITH ME:

My childhood memories are filled with the injustice done to women in the public space dominated by men. And the joy and pleasure amongst women in the private space. I have been privileged to grow up in these secluded sisterhood spaces where women could construct their female sensual identity, without the interference of a sexualized or pornified male gaze dictating how their female bodies, sensuality and sexuality should look.

But as much as I loved the beauty, sensuality and freedom of these secluded female spaces, I hated the patriarchal dominance and I was dreaming about living in an egalitarian system, in the ‘Free West’.

As a little girl, I loved floating in the Mediterranean sea, dreaming that one day I will be graciously carried by the waves until I reach the promised land: Europe, where I will rise and shine as a big girl!

It took a lot of blood, sweat and tears to make my little girl’s dream come true. After a perilous journey I could leave Africa for Europe and realize another little girl’s dream: to study at the university of Sorbonne in Paris. With a PhD in Gender Studies in my pocket, I felt the world is mine to conquer as a woman.

After living and working extensively in many countries in Europe and America, I witnessed that the oppression of the feminine is unfortunately not only in my African-Arab-Muslim culture. It was also present, in a subtle way, in rich, democratic, secular Western cultures. I finally realized it’s not about East and West, it’s global: it’s a a virus infecting all cultures and countries without exception, it’s the patriarchal epidemic.

And this is when I decided that I will do all I can to heal women from this epidemic and help the Rise of the Feminine in our planet.

WHY?

Why do we value rationality above intuition? Why do we trust the mind and mistrust the body? Why do we emphasize masculine qualities and neglect the feminine ones? Why are women not living and leading from the alignment head-heart-belly?

We are all fed up witnessing how our feminine nature is negatively overexposed in the mainstream media, dominated by the culture of sexualization and pornification of the female body.

Anchored deep inside you and every woman is a strong primal force, a Feminine Capital, which is being acknowledged less and less. To correct this total disbalance we women need to stand up and show the real story. It all comes down to activating the elements of the feminine which will result in more female empowerment and leadership.

Isn’t it about time women step proudly in the arena of power, not as duplicates of men, but as authentic leaders who wish to participate in innovating, changing and co-leading the world?

HOW CAN I HELP YOU?

To help you, I created my own method Divine9 Dance TherapyⓇ where I blend my academic knowledge as university professor in Gender Studies with my business experience as corporate trainer in FeMale leadership. I wrap it up with my Divine9Dance, a mix of physical, emotional and spiritual healing techniques.

I inherited this dance from my female lineage in Tunisia, North-Africa. I was initiated as a child by my grandmother and the eldest of my tribe to this ancient dance ritual (4000 years old), called in Arabic Raqsat Al Ilahat, Dance of the goddesses. This Divine Dance was used by women to heal and empower themselves, to cement the sisterhood spirit and initiate men to the feminine face of sensuality.

If you’d like to feel more Feminine, Powerful and Playful, no matter what challenges life throws at you, then this could be one of the best ways to inspire you to say loudly and proudly: YES, I am a woman!
