As we gather to make our drums, we will also explore using drums for healing, balance, and connection. The workshop addresses the spiritual, emotional, and physical aspects of Drum making. Drum practices woven within the structure of the workshop are 4-fold and will include usage as a medicine song tool, for journey work, as a meditation tool, and for mental focus with I Ching drumming. We will also weave our time together with storytelling, songs, and sharings from the heart. Each participant will take home his or her own beautiful wood frame and leather drum with drumstick.
