Birth your own medicine drum in our Shamanic Medicine Drum Making Workshops. The drum echoes the heartbeat of the Earth and enables us to connect with the sacred rhythms of life. Drumming is known to boost your immune system, and can be used  to calm and center you. It has a pan cultural history as a sacred tool in women’s spirituality and religious life. Layne Redmonds powerful book When the Drummers Were Women documents women’s history with drumming across the Middle East, and Europe. Max Dashu’s work documents the use of the drum throughout Asia, the America’s, Africa and Europe.

The frame drum is a shamanic tool used for general well being – for meditation, for ritual, ceremony and for journeying. It is a musical instrument and used for dance, for joy and for deep connection.

Join me to journey with the drum beat to tap into the reservoirs of your deep embodied wisdom, and earth wisdom.

1:1 Sessions

Are you feeling stuck, or going through a challenging transition or time? Sarah offers 1:1 sessions based on the modality of School of Shamanic Womancraft which recognises that you have the answers within. Using shamanic womancraft processes you can bring awareness to the patterns and story of your rites of passage and your woundings – seeing them as opportunities for growth and initiation.

Ritual & Performance

Sarah works in collaboration with women, and gender diverse people to co-create sacred ceremonies and ritual. Her work focuses on creating mytho- poetic and embodied stories of rites of passage and deepening our connection to the earth. Sarah also works with artists and the wider community to create shared rituals and performance in honour of the earth.
