SACRED DRUM MAKING WORKSHOP
Drumming reminds us of our oneness, we remember how to pray and heal, and we connect with our place in the Life Web. The drum-making workshop is a one-day ceremony where each person makes an individual drum in a sacred manner. We explore the rhythm around and within us. We open our hearts to hear the guidance of our ancestors and the lessons from the spirits of the drums. At the end of the journey, we bless the birth of these special drums, and we give thanks to our Mother Earth for her gifts.
