Devora Benchimol
Joogal Kids: Meditation in Motion Founder
Miami, Florida
Devora was born in Buenos Aires, Argentina, to a family which enjoyed dancing together. During her teenage years, she practiced acrobatic gymnastics and learned more about dance to nurture her spiritual and artistic side. To help children deal with emotions and develop concentration skills through the power of creative movement, Devora created Joogal Kids, a fun method of creative movement that is based on the ancient wisdom of the Hebrew alphabet and trains children to strengthen their body, mind and soul while learning universal values through play and meditation.
