Custom Workshops for Groups

Usually we have a drumming circle the
night before the drummaking to let people experience the different feelings
created by the size and skin of drums. |
 |
 |
The drummaking itself usually takes about
three hours when we begin from a kit. When we start from scratch, we allow a
full day to construct the drum. |
 |
Many workshops include participants making
their own individual drums, while others, such as the one shown here, pool
everyone's energy to make a larger, ceremonial drum for the group. |
|
Both the "mechanics"
and the ceremonial are taught, and the energies of the different animals and
trees are covered in depth. |
 |
 |
Rattle making is also often included in
the weekend, and occasionally we add dreamcatcher making. |
|
If you have a group that wishes to make drums or
rattles, we can custom design a weekend workshop for your group.
