When we gather in harmony and connection to make music, dance with our feet on the Earth, and dig our hands into the soil, the mycelium in the soil responds. The trees witness our return to the land. The Earth comes rushing in.

This land-based music and dance immersion is a chance to reconnect: with yourself, with the land, and with your innate, playful sense of rhythm and artistry.

In modern society, we have forgotten we are part of nature. This immersion is a chance to return to the land and remember that through music-making, movement, and connection, we have the power to heal together, with the land.

We are dancers, vocalists and musicians with over 80 years collective experience studying and teaching Brazilian music and dance forms. These forms are rooted in Afro-Indigenous wisdom - rhythms and dances that call us home and teach us how to embody the natural elements of Earth, Air, Fire and Water. These art forms teach us how to connect our feet to the Earth.

After years of study, instruction and performance on stages and studios, we are taking this work outside, to dance with the land, sing with the river, make music with the wind, and play songs around the campfire.

THIS IS NOT A RETREAT.

We are not running away from our lives. This is a return - a chance to immerse yourself in the rich biodiversity of a tropical cloud forest while engaging in a deep art form that leads back to indigenous and ancestral wisdom. It’s a chance to to engage in sacred ecology, build ceremony and belonging, and remember you are a dancer, a music-maker, and an Earth healer.
