Indigenous Storytelling Workshop: Hand Drum Circle

A beautiful mix of traditional, ceremonial, contemporary, and original hand drum songs by Aqua Nibii Waawaaskone are sung and taught through kinaesthetic ways of knowing.

This workshop is an incredibly healing experience. It encompasses teachings of the hand drum and how it is used in ceremony. The drum allows your heartbeat to connect to the earth’s heartbeat. This workshop is ideal for all ages from babies in the womb, toddlers, children, youth, adults and elders. All are welcome.

Aqua thoughtfully crafts each song from their life experience as an IndigiQueer person of mixed ancestry.
