Shamanic Drum building course - Creating your own drum - Do not miss this sacred opportunity to build your own drum with your own energies and intentions in this amazing weekend workshop led by professional drumbuilder Filip Fišer.
🌍 The drum sound has accompanied humankind since the beginning of time. It is in the heart of all spirit oriented cultures across the planet. There is much that a drum can unlock, give access to within oneself. It is an essential, ancient wisdom that comes through its vibration. It points to the sacred that wants to be shared, that is there to be listened to. Find out for yourself.
🤲 During this weekend you will use your hands to build your very own drum, in complete sacredness between you and the creation. This is a beautiful process and after this weekend you will bring with you your own drum, ready to create vibrations that touch your soul.
Words from the workshop facilitator: I feel I'm still just touching upon the connection between hands, heart, mind and creation. We humans as a species were since forever depending on creating with our hands for our basic existence and it is only very shortly since this link is being disrupted.
🌿 When people enter my workshop, put their hands on the materials, the wood, the skin, the tools... something very interesting happens. Like if something in them remembers, remembers this basic connection, communion between life and oneself through laying our hands on what nature provides and joining the creation.
It’s mesmerizing to witness this and it happens every time over and over again. Different focus takes place, innocent joy when seeing that ‘It starts to look like a drum!’. The pride and satisfaction when (3 days later) holding a self made sacred instrument and then hearing it for the first time with the awareness of the whole journey and its challenges. It is profound and very therapeutic. It is an honor to be there for this as the teacher. Always.
🎶 During this weekend I offer my craftsmanship skills, knowledge and experience to support you in the process of creating your own music instrument. There will be space to share what is on our hearts and minds, space for the actual drum creation and possibly music playing in the evenings...
