Between the years 2007-2015, she was a member of 209 Ensemble, a performance stage, under the artistic direction of Tamar Raban.

In recent years, Tami has been developing works that emerge from the vicinity of the theater hall, last for a longer period of time and have a connection with certain communities and environments. In 2017, Tami created a journey-show that began with water and ended with fire and lasted 13 hours, throughout Jerusalem, for the International Performance Conference. In 2019, she created work for the Beit Uri and Rami Nehushtan Museum in kibbutz Ashdot Yaakov. The work began with a journey from the Jordan River and continued into the museum space. “Lost hour – Love Strikes Twice” began as a work created for the Bat Yam Museum on the night of the change of clock between winter and summer times and continued into the unique space of the Herzliya Museum. These series of works are part of an ongoing work process in which Tami is interested in creating a dance work that is an unmediated space in which the audience is hosted.
