About Me

Shaked Mochiach is a choreographer, musician, and dancer. She creates choreography for human encounters, exploring the potential for shared transcendence in the dancing body. She is interested in the human process unfolding within the creative process, giving birth to aesthetic movement and performance. In 2021, Shaked founded the Moon-Dreamers Ensemble, her performance group consisting of people with diverse identities, ages, and experiences. Her work has been presented across Israel in Curtain Up, Acre Festival, Kelim Dance Festival, and IntimaDance Festival, among others. 
Shaked is dedicated to building bridges between contemporary dance and culturally and socio-economically diverse communities and she regularly works with groups of non-dancers. In 2024, she established The Bonfire, a program for physical and spiritual exploration in dance and performance. From 2022-2019 she was the artistic director of the Art Workshop Center Ramat Eliyahu where she established a residency program for artists, created training programs, and served as a curator and producer. 
Shaked completed the two-year choreography program at Kelim Choreography Center and she is the recipient of a 2022-24 Community Dancer Scholarship from the Ministry of Culture and a 2021 residency at the Yasmeen Godder Studio. In 2023, Shaked released her debut album, "Purple."
