When in our mother’s womb, our first experience of life was a felt experience -- the feeling sensation of our mother’s heartbeat. This was our initiation into another world, a world of duality. That essential rhythm, beat – silence – beat -- silence, is the rhythm of spirit as in form –spirit – form – spirit, and the rhythm of breath itself. The drum is our residence with this eternal sound and rhythm. In Siberia, the shamans called their drum their “spirit stead” because they would ride the beat of the drum like a horse into the spirit world in their shamanic journey.Research has shown that drumming has many wonderful benefits by listening and or playing. Among them are release of good endorphins, deep relaxation, control chronic pain, boosts the immune system, a sense of connectedness, alignment of body and mind with the natural world, access to a more refined power. Drumming also helps to release negative feelings, puts us in the present moment and, when used properly, can allow us personal transformation.The Drums we will make are made from ready-made wooden hoops and we will be using authentic animal skins. Each kit is complete with everything you need for creating your own 18 inch; single sided, round drum and beater. The picture above is similar to the ones that you will receive. You have a choice between deer or elk skins; deer is said to closely resemble the heart space and elk is generally used for more power.The workshop:We will begin with ritual practices for setting sacred space and will conduct our work in stages together. Smudging, Calling in the Spirits and personal journeys to the spirit of the animal is in order. After 4 hours or so, you will leave with your own personal drum that can virtually change your life in many wonderful ways!
