MAX RETURNED, OCTOBER 31-NOV 2, 2008
   We had a great time drumming with MAX the Crystal Skull while he was in NH in June & October, 2008!
Max is only one of two authenticated crystal skulls found on the planet.   There are thought to be 13 Ancient skulls. 

Max is one of only two authenticated skulls in the world!
Thank you to everyone who came to the workshop, and thank you to DyJahna Cote Rogers for sponsoring the event at her beautiful sanctuary.  

And also thank you to Joanne Parks who is the caretaker of MAX, and travels with him all over the globe!
If you have seen the new Indiana Jones movie, they have an interesting take on the story of the crystal skulls. 
But, let me tell you that the
real skul is very heavy, not like the plastic model they were tossing around in the movie!
MAX will be back for the June Solstice next year, 2009.
Please contact DyJahna at 603-432-1777 if you'd like more information.
My life is very blessed that I am invited to facilitate drumming at the MAX workshops twice a year.
For those of you who understand energy work, it's like having a Reiki attunement at the Master level each visit!

DRUM CIRCLE FACILITATOR'S CONFERENCE IN S. CAROLINA
 In February 2007, I attended the "Drum Circle Facilitator's Conference" in S. Carolina.  
It was a great experience to meet up with DCFC's from across the globe
who are as nutty about drum and community drum facilitation as me! 
This year's conference will be in March in Prescott, Arizona.

I will be offering a workshop on songs, rhythms, and dances of the Mother Drum. Fun!
