This act is about the allure of the river goddess in African folklore from the YorubaTribe. The river goddess is associated with water, purity, healing, fertility, and Love. She is also known for her beauty and allure. This act uses dance and physical expression with aerial straps to show the variable soft and turbulent waves of water, and captivates the audience by drawing them into an aura of positive energy.
