Miriam Peretz

Miriam Peretz is an internationally acclaimed performing artist specializing in traditional & contemporary dances from the Silk Road (Persia & Central Asia,) as well as ethno-Contemporary dance. Her style draws inspiration from her diverse dance background in Persian, Central Asian, Flamenco, and Contemporary dance as well as her training in various Martial Art forms. Miriam has been a principle dancer with Wan-Chao Chang Dance Company (California), Ballet Afsaneh (California,) Inbal Ethnic Dance Theater Company (Israel,) as well as a featured soloist in festivals throughout the U.S., South America, and Europe.

Miriam has recently started a dance collective, called
Nava Dance Collective
which is an international collective of dancers devoted to creating community in the sacred circle of dance as well producing meaningful projects inspired by cross cultural, cross religious themes.

Miriam’s love of dance has led her on a life long journey in search for ways to use the arts as a bridge between people of different backgrounds and spiritual traditions. She sees dance as a uniquely powerful means of expressing deep emotion and spiritual yearning, and therefore the perfect embodiment of prayer.
