About


Benina Berger is a multi-faceted contemporary vocal artist, dance performer, and teacher whose work blends music, movement, and improvisation into a unique and expressive art form.

She holds a degree in MUSIC & MOVEMENT (Bachelor of Rhythmics / Elementary Music Pedagogy), a holistic and widely practiced method of music education that treats music and movement as one unified language.

Improvisation and artistic design are central to her approach, interweaving sensory perception, physical expression, spatial awareness, musicality, interaction, communication, and self-discovery.

During her studies, she delved deeply into vocal and dance improvisation. Her artistic practice explores sound in all its textures—rattles, phonetics, sound surfaces, tone colors, patterns, and soundscapes—turning them into her creative material.

Her special interest lies in the interdisciplinary dialogue between DANCE and MUSIC.
The Art of Improvisation as a stage performance itself.
A performance in the moment.

She collaborates with musicians, dancers, visual artists, and other performers across disciplines.

Music is movement. Movement is music.
