You may buy a kit for a 12-inch drum at the workshop for $30 or you may order your kit online (some good sources are listed below). Materials will be available at the workshop to embellish your drum, and you may also bring special feathers or items of your own to add to your drum.
Prerequisite: Shamanic journey skills are helpful but not required.
What to bring:
· Blanket, eye shade or bandanna, rattle if you have one
· Notebook or journal and pen
· Lunch, snacks and beverages for yourself
