Shirly Barbie is an independent Israeli-French choreographer, performer, artistic consultant, and movement director whose work has been presented internationally. She is the founder of the BodyMind interdisciplinary movement practice and philosophy, which she continues to develop through artistic exploration, research, and teaching.
Barbie’s artistic work explores the relationship between body, consciousness and human presence. Her movement language is driven by emotional honesty, physical intensity, and the continuous dialogue between inner experience and outward expression. Her works invite audiences into embodied experiences where performance becomes a living form of shared presence, encounter and transformation
Shirly’s creations reflect the language of BodyMind.
BodyMind is an interdisciplinary movement practice and philosophy that explores the
relationship between body, mind, consciousness, and movement. Rooted in embodied
practice, it integrates movement research, improvisation, breath, emotional expressivity,
and attentive awareness to deepen presence, physical and intelligence and expand
expressive possibilities.
“As our range of perception expands, so does the body’s capacity to move.”
Private coching and intensive workshops also available on request.
