Drum Birthing Retreat

About this event

A drum is a powerful tool for honoring Spirit and for clearing, healing, and generating energy. In this non-residential retreat, we will use journeying & ceremony to help you form a deep relationship with your drum and ask how it wants to walk on the Earth.

Is your new drum a personal tool, a community tool, or a healing tool? In the process of birthing your drum, it is possible to experience an initiatory-type transformation & integration of your personal power. The power of the symbol created by the lacing pattern (an 8-pointed star), and its connection with the Medicine Wheel of Life, will be revealed during our time together.

Cyndy and Spirit will guide you through all of the simple techniques of creating your drum.

Location: This 2-day non-residential retreat will be held at a private home in Vass, North Carolina.

Time: 10am - 6pm on Saturday, 10am - 5pm on Sunday. Please bring your lunch each day. A snack will be provided.
