DRUM BIRTH: Chimalli-Huehuetl Drum Creation Workshop
Join us for an inspiring journey into the world of Mesoamerican tradition with the Chimalli-Huehuetl Drum Creation Workshop. The Huguehuetl, a revered ritual floor drum, inspires this unique workshop where you'll craft your very own Chimalli-Huehuetl—a drum that resonates with ancient rhythm and contemporary spirit.
Workshop Overview: The Chimalli-Huehuetl serves as a contemporary drum used in ritual dances. "Chimalli" refers to the shield used by ancient jaguar and eagle warriors, while "Huehuetl" signifies the ritual drum. Prepare to birth your drum, a process that merges tree and animal energies into a single heart with you, known as "Tonalli."
