Sacred Drumming is dedicated to helping create cross-cultural connection and inclusion among diverse peoples. ⚪️ Music and frame drumming, in particular, are Universal languages and a worldwide global phenomenon that bring people together from all demographics of life to be in circle and collective rhythm. ⚪️ We stand with our black community members, the indigenous, oppressed, and minority people in the U.S. and the world over who are suffering and demanding change. ⚪️ We ar

Reflecting on the life and legacy of my teacher, friend, and mentor Layne Redmond today on her Birthday. I scattered some of Layne's ashes to the wind and soil at this sacred oracular site of Delphi in Greece in 2017 while co-leading two groups of 25 women each on a Field School.

"Mythos: a pattern of beliefs often expressing the characteristic or prevalent attitudes symbolically in a group or culture." As you look around the world through the lens of media, your tv, the internet matrix, what do you see? Do the collective patterns of symbols, stories and attitudes inspire your soul? Sometimes yes? Sometimes no? We are individually and collectively crafting the mythos. For 2,000 + years up to the present day, the dominant voice has been that of the pa

Am I late to the - I wish you all a Happy New Year! 2020 party? Well, if so, it's because I've already decided to slow this year way the f down... I woke up on New Year's Day morning, and the first thing I heard (from inside my mind) was a loud voice saying, "time to get up and YOU BETTER HIT THE GROUND RUNNING!". No kidding. Hmmm, okay, wow.
