“I dance because I feel the most raw, exposed and free version of myself. My life’s path is reflected in my movement. Dance is my safe space and unpredictable place which allows me to jump between worlds and characters.”
Kachal Blumer grew up in Tel Aviv, Israel, where she trained at the Ironi Alef High School of Arts in Tel Aviv.
