oodena


















this is a doctored photo of me playing at a drum circle at the oodeena circle at the forks, which is located at the forks of the assiniboine and red rivers in the centre of winnipeg.
the forks has been a meeting place for thousands of years. native north americans met there, and it is pretty much guaranteed that they played drums there.
for me, drum circles are a way of tapping into the past... a way to experience the magic of communal drumming, as it has been practiced for thousands of years. if you have ever felt the magic of participating in a good drum circle, then you know what i am talking about. if you haven't, then you should.
