Theme: The Return to Rhythm

Drum Work 1: Power.

This session opens the training with an embodied introduction to sacred circle technology. We ask: Where are you drumming from?

You will learn:
– How to enter ceremonial space with presence and reverence
– The origins of the drum as a spiritual tool and transmitter of ancestral power
– The somatic roots of rhythm — and how your body already remembers the beat
– The difference between drumming from the mind, the womb, the heart, or survival
– The circle as a container of power, not performance

You will not just drum —
You will remember how to be held by rhythm,
how to speak without words,
how to enter the drum as temple.

Drum Work 2: Roots.

This session deepens into the root system of the work — where rhythm meets memory, and myth becomes map.

You will explore:
– The drum as an ancestral tool of remembering
– Raw Voice Works to access stored emotional memory in the body
– A Circle of Words: storytelling as ritual
– The power of myth in Indigenous cosmovision — myth as memory, not metaphor
– A Collective Altar Ceremony: bringing offerings to your lineage in prayer, in silence, or in song

This is where rhythm meets your rivers.
Where blood stories are witnessed.
And where we do not fix the past — we sing it forward.

Day 2: The Ancestral Body Remembers

Drum Work 3: Embodying the Ancestral Self

"You are not just descended from your ancestors  you are carrying out what they began."

This session invites full-bodied connection with your Ancestral Self  the part of you shaped by prayer, bloodline, and archetypal memory.

You will experience:
– Drum-led somatic movement to awaken ancestral gestures
– Raw Voice Works to express grief, reverence, and rage stored in the line
– Call-and-response chant and vocal toning
– Deep journaling and integration prompts
– A sacred return to inheritance — not as burden, but as power

Guided Inquiry:
Who are you when you’re not performing healing —
but becoming the prayer your ancestors never finished?

This is where we remember that the body is archive,
and movement is remembrance.

Drum Work 4: RHYTHMIC REVIVAL

Theme: Celebration as Integration

We close not with words, but with rhythm.

Rhythmic Revival is the final temple —
a full-bodied YES to life.
A celebration where the drum carries everything we’ve moved, released, reclaimed.

Through collective dance, song, and drumming, we honor the ancestral body — the one that trembled, cracked open, and rose again.

This is not the end.
This is the beginning of rhythm as practice.
A way to live, to relate, to lead.
