feldenkrais & dance as one
Welcome to the groundbreaking world of Feldenkrais, a method that wakes up the brain to create new movement patterns, dramatically improving your physical, cognitive & emotional well being. Dive into FATHOM HIGH, a Feldenkrais based dance technique, learning to move like kids again, with freedom & joy.
In this practice, we don't teach people one way of moving. We teach them how to constantly expand their arsenal of possibilities. Since moving is a dynamic process that keeps on asking us to adapt, so we can move smartly, stay agile, overcome pain and injury, and become more resilient.

Meet Meytal
Hi there,
My name is Meytal Blanaru, I’m a contemporary dancer & choreographer, a certified Feldenkrais® teacher and founder of the FATHOM HIGH dance technique.
My meeting with the Feldenkrais Method changed my life in every possible way. A past car accident left me with a chronic back injury, unable to dance. Feldenkrais was a last resource - not only did it heal me profoundly, but it also helped me gain such freedom and ease of motion in ways I never even imagined were possible. It improved every aspect of my dancing skills and taught me to deeply reconnect to my body with such kindness, playfulness and child-like curiosity. This became my deep motivation in teaching, or my life’s purpose - to enable and support others through a similar process.
