Utilizing Ancient Wisdom
To Help Improve Everyday Life
Kathi Von Koerber
Kathi Von Koerber is a dancer/healer and filmmaker from Germany/South Africa. She has spent time with elders from Bushmen tribes in southern Africa, the Tuareg in the Sahara, Gabonese Eboga priestess Bernadette Rebienot, Lakota, Navajo, and Cherokee in the United States, Xawante and Fulnio in Brazil, and the Camsra and Kogi in Colombia. Kathi has taught and performed dance internationally for the last 15 years and has designated her life to the preservation of indigenous wisdom and advocating rituals as a key element in human evolution and initiation into adulthood.
Kathi honors the voice of the grandmother. She supports the prayers of women and her ancient voices through the tools and means of praying with the elements, the earth and its food, the fire and its transformation, the water and its purifying power, and the air through which we walk our dance of life.
