Volúsia was born in Rio de Janeiro, in 1914; her parents were the poets Gilka Machado and Rodolfo Machado.[3] Volúsia entered the ballet school in 1928, where she studied under Maria Olenewa.[4] She also attended the umbanda terreiro of João da Luz, where she had her first contact with Afro-Brazilian dances.[4]

In 1929, Volúsia made her first presentation at Theatro Municipal, dancing samba barefooted.[4] She would make another presentations in the following years, invited by cultural salonists like Paschoal Carlos Magno.[5] In the spirit of Brazilian modernism Volúsia researched Amerindian and African dances in order to create a "national dance" (bailado nacional).

In 1935 she participated of her first Brazilian film, Favela dos Meus Amores. She would be featured in other four films in Brazil.[5]

On 22 September 1941 she was featured at the cover of Life magazine. The following year she participated in a musical act in the MGM film Rio Rita, with Abbott and Costello. She would be compared to Carmen Miranda by local media.[3]
