ONE-TO-ONE DRUM WORKSHOP

£270

I work with Deer, Buffalo, and Reindeer spirits. In the absence of top predators in the UK, such as wolves, bears or lynxes, the wild deer population rise each year to the levels that have deleterious effects on the rest of the ecosystem. To try and manage this, unfortunately, the solution that is currently in place here in the UK is to cull the deer. While the meat does enter the venison trade, the vast majority of the hides are discarded which is extremely sad. Giving a new life to the spirit of the fallen animal in the form of a Drum is a truly beautiful way to honour his/her spirit one last time. The Drum will then share the medicine and wisdom with whoever works with it. I also import ethically sourced Reindeer hides from Sweden. Despite this, I am always searching for alternatives and would be happy to find a vegan-friendly option, but so far, all I have come across are synthetic materials(plastic), and that is simply not my path.

WHAT IS INCLUDED:

• A fully guided Shamanic drum workshop

• Drum and a drum beater

• Drum card which explains how to care for your drum and what was customised

4. Any additional information

• If you arrive more than an hour late and we’re unable to proceed, I’m happy to reschedule, but please understand that it may take a few weeks, depending on my current schedule.

Deposit & Cancellation Policy – One-to-One Drum Workshop

A deposit is required to secure your booking for the one-to-one drum workshop. This allows me to reserve your time slot and begin preparing a session tailored specifically to your needs.

Refund Policy:

• If you need to cancel your session, your deposit will be refunded in full as long as you notify me at least 7 days (1 week) before the scheduled date.

• Cancellations made less than 7 days in advance are non-refundable, as the time has already been set aside for you and cannot easily be rebooked.
