DrumBuilding

This two day workshop begins with a ceremony to remind

us of our connection to the Source and to honor the gifts

from the Earth that will become our drums. Then you will

craft your own drum to completed form. This includes

choosing your own natural wood drum shell and hide,

complete assembly and a lesson in making “diamonds” to

keep the drum tight and tuned. All drums will come with a

heavy fabric belt strap to wear when playing. Prices will vary

with the type of drum picked to construct. [two 4hr segments]

Alex Wedmedyk is a craftsman, drummer and facilitator, and has been building drums and playing them since 1990. Over the years he has had many teachers and shares "the jewels of knownedge" that he has picked up along the way.

All of his workshops emphasize that the Eternal Spring of Creativity is our Spirit, and that we connect to this source by enhancing our relationship with the Great Spirit.

Our inner strength and outer power are directly related to how well we move through our lives "in rhythm."

Through Earth Rhythm, he has created, with his wife Joy, various workshops and events, on self discovery & personal empowerment.

Alex has facilitated many workshops, drum circles and rituals throughout the Midwest. He has created the annual Adventures in Rhythm Drummers Retreat and the Rites of Spring Community Gathering of Ohio.
