This link is for paying the full early-bird fee for a residential place on a Drum Birthing Weekend Residential Retreat.
Retreat details:
Create your own shamanic drum & beater
Your drum
During this residential weekend you will be birthing a 40cm/16inch (approx) frame drum covered with deer hide. We will be using the energy of the burn (stream) which runs alongside my home in the process, connecting you and your drum to Scotland.
You will also make a drum beater made of natural materials to accompany your drum.
We may be working outside around the campfire – weather permitting! We will retreat to the bell tent/outbuilding/indoors if the weather (or midges) dictate.
The weekend
Accommodation is on the Shore Road, Innellan, on Argyll’s Secret Coast in potentially shared twin rooms. Simple vegetarian food is included, plus drinks and snacks during the day.
Starting after the evening meal on Friday and working through to around 8:30pm is your preparation time. Breakfast is at 8:30am, giving you plenty of time for an early morning stroll on the beach or in my private woodland. Then from 9:30am-5:30pm approx on Saturday you will be birthing your drum. Saturday evening will be more relaxed.... though you will still be creating! On Sunday morning you'll be finishing your beater before we awaken your drum through ceremony. We finish late morning when you'll be free to depart or if you wish you can stay for a light lunch before your journey home.
What to bring
Toiletries - towels are provided. Indoor footwear.
Waterproofs and warm layers including warm footwear.
Something to wrap your drum in to get it home - it will still be damp at this stage. Plus, any feathers etc that you want to decorate your drum beater with.OR you can buy a drum-bag from me.
A notebook to capture your insights from the shamanic journeys - a manual is provided :)
