about me

Inbar Elkayam (b. 1991, Israel) is a choreographer, performer, and dance educator based in Switzerland. Her work explores the space between individuality and collective structures, using movement as a way to question communication and human connection.

Educated at the Nadin Boomer Dancetheater Academy and the Bat-Sheva Dance Company’s excellence program, Inbar has collaborated with companies such as Kibbutz Dance Company (IL) and LeineRoebana (NL), and has worked with choreographers including Doron Raz, Gilad Yerushalmy, Merav Dagan, and Teresa Rotemberg.

Artistic Work
Since a very young age, Inbar was drawn to creating and exploring new forms of expression. Her first choreographic work was presented on a professional stage in 2017, marking the beginning of a journey shaped by curiosity and unconventional thought patterns. Over the years, this search has evolved into a distinctive artistic voice that reflects her interest in human connection and communication.

Her creations investigate how bodies navigate between unity and individuality, how shared rhythms emerge, and how dissonance can transform into dialogue. Each work opens a space of reflection, where the personal expands into the collective and collective tension becomes deeply personal.

Teaching & Embodied Intelligence
As an educator, Inbar approaches teaching as a field of discovery. Her classes combine physical precision with openness, encouraging dancers to trust intuition, expand awareness, and connect body with space, self with others. This approach is the foundation of what she calls Embodied Intelligence — a practice that treats movement as knowledge, a way of thinking through the body. Through professional training, workshops, and classes for non-professionals, she creates environments where curiosity, sensitivity, and strength can grow side by side.
