Yes, Birthing your own drum is that sacred and powerful!

It’s a way of communicating, celebrating, connecting & healing.

The drum is a sacred gift from our blessed earth mother, it is a path of personal power & of re-connection.

Each day of the retreat will center on the elements, Water, Earth, Air and Fire, with ceremonies, foods and practices to reconnect with each element.  Learn a new rhythm through daily yoga, nourishment, communal support, and meditation; while learning the rhythm of your renewed heart beat through the Drum. 

 

Our bodies, minds and souls respond to the beat and vibration. YOUR drum is calling you. Birth your own ethically sourced animal hide drum during a 6-day retreat to connect with the earth, the animals and the plant medicines of the land…. You will sit in the circle way with others called to the central fire. We will sing , we will untangle our pasts and learn to reweave our futures, in time with the heart beats of our cosmic and earthly grandmothers. This is a time to heal intergenerational and other traumas, to renew the umbilical cord to the mother and to ourselves.
