The drum will promote our visionary experiences (the Siberians say the drum is the horse they ride into the spirit world). We'll see how the journey, through the recovery of "power," can promote healing in others. We'll use a stone in doing "rock divination," learning how to get a detailed answer to a question. We'll also learn shamanic songs and how to utilize movement in understanding the nature of spirits. In short, it's a full and exciting weekend. Contact instructor: Dana Robinson.
