“This dance company is unlike anything you’ve ever seen.”
— Shani Tamari, Israel Hayom
A shamanic tribal journey of dance and live music, in which the beating heart of the Amazon comes to the stage and sweeps the audience into a powerful ritual that expands the heart and consciousness.
“The inspiration for the work Journey comes from my journeys with my teachers from the tribes of Central and South America. The beating heart of these journeys is the music, the jungle, and plant medicine. The performance is essentially an invitation for the audience to take part in a ritual ✨ We create a space that enables an experience of a shamanic journey and invite you to be part of this experience through music and dance :) This comes from my deep desire to bring this medicine to spaces where it is less familiar—to bring the Amazon to the studio and the stage 🌳🪶”
— Erika Rintovitz
