I began meditation with drumming after having three near-death experiences which awakened a recognition of the Divine. This led me onto the path of vision, drum making and storytelling. I'm a traditional frame drum maker who believes there is one song, the song of life, and that drumming together is the human expression of our connection.
When I touch the wet elk hide while building a drum, I feel the expressions of Mother Earth. In touching her, I touch that aspect of myself; and I can experience the body and heart of my ancestors in the reality of my body on the heart of the land. It is this bridge between my ancestors and me where I can hear them whisper on the flow of the breeze.
