SHAMANIC DRUM BIRTHING WILD MOON - DRUM BIRTHING - RATTLE MAKING - CACAO DANCE CEREMONY - BELTANE PRAYER
Weekend workshop May 1st- 3rd 2026
with Dorrie Joy & Bonnie McAteer
Welcoming you on a sacred Journey. This drum making weekend is a deep dive of creativity & belonging. We’ll bathe in the glow of the Beltane full moon, making Shamanic Drums as soul vessels & Riverstone Rattles as songful companions, journeying with wild land, cacao, movement, dance, ceremony, stillness & wild prayer in a strongly held, safe & sacred space.
We’ll be working with ethically sourced & hand prepared materials, using water buffalo skins for strong, warm tones with a deep gentle womb resonance. Each drum & rattle will be unique & personalised.
A deeply nourishing way to spend memorable & meaningful time creating these instruments together.
Spaces are limited, advance booking essential.
We women of wild & wonder, sisters of moon & water, daughters of earth & sky, journeying together: You are warmly invited to this long awaited drum making workshop in Jersey. We have cooked up a feast of cacao, ceremony, dance, movement & ritual to lift up this Beltane weekend. We’ll be making shamanic frame drums as soul vessels of belonging, & rattles filled with river stones to nourish our songlines & deep waters. All materials are hand prepared with integrity & care, to make lifetime companions.
Dorrie has been drum making for over 30 years & journeying in the wild medicine of Bonnie’s shamanic work, sharing friendship & sisterhood for decades, & we are so happy to be sharing this space. We will have plenty of time out on the sweet land with ash & granite, sun, stars, mist & moonbeams. We’ll be heart sharing, soul singing. Come as you are. We all have our scars, & yet, we make beauty. Many hands making light work. Making light. Making Earth.
We’ll water the fertile seeds of our creativity & plant hope & praise in our generous Earth, finishing with a blessing for these gorgeous drums that are like full bellies of soul memory & guidance.
