Deborah Lotti, born in Luxembourg in 1993, is a professional dancer, model and dance teacher.
Since starting her professional career in 2013, she has performed with several dance companies, such as the Ballets Jazz Rick Odums, the Armstrong Jazz Ballet and the RB Dance Company.
Her interest in various danceforms led her to the participation in the Jacob's Pillow Contemporary Program, a Bachelor thesis on Swing dance and cabaret shows with "Les Allumettes". Following on her aspiration to be a pluridisciplinary dancer, she attends several workshops like the Gaga Summer Intensive in Tel Aviv, masterclasses with Chet Walker, Desmond Richardson or the Hofesh Schechter Company and had the privilege to work with choreographers like Ohad Naharin, Nathan Trice, Annabelle Lopez Ochoa and Christine Bastin.
Her passion for modeling and photography leads her to the opportunity to shoot for bag an clothes brands such as Moluki or Michino Paris appearing in Vogue Taiwan in August 2021.
Nowadays, based in Paris, she performs in the RB Dance Company's touring show "Stories" and teaches modern jazz at ESPAS-Danse while being invited as a guest teacher and solo performer in international dance festivals in Germany, Belgium and Luxembourg.
