SNOW RAVEN (OLOX) and Snow Raven

DANCE BEYOND Presents: Snow Raven

Kut-Sür Ceremonial Tour

In this immersive ceremonial sound journey, Snow Raven will weave her traditional songs with the sounds of birds and animals to guide participants through the three worlds.

The northern people of Sakha follow the traditional faith “Aiyy” (Creation), which divides the world into three parts: the Upper (gods and deities), the Middle (people, insects, plants, birds, animals), and the Lower (negatives of human life).

Snow Raven will teach the audience traditional singing techniques and dance movements, helping participants experience a true journey through the three worlds from the Shamanic lens of Sakha tradition. Human development is governed by “Kut-Sür,” where “Kut” means soul and “Sür” refers to energy and vibration. According to traditional Sakha belief, the human soul (kut) is comprised of three parts:

Iie Kut - Mother Soul
Buor Kut - Earth Soul
Salgyn Kut - Air Soul
The Sakha people believe that the three Kuts must stay in balance; if one becomes weak, it can lead to illness. In this ceremonial concert, individuals will have the opportunity to journey within themselves, restoring balance and harmony to their soul.
