Thrymskapr Drum Crafting

-EARLY BIRD PRICING-

Connect intimately with one of the world’s oldest, most powerful and mystical instruments by creating one with your own hands. Jacob Lund, of Heilung, and Jacqui Alberts will guide you in the ritual crafting of your own natural hide frame-drum.

Begin with a guided drum-meditation and journey to meet the spirit of your new drum companion. We will set an altar with offerings and perform an opening ritual to set sacred space and intention, followed by Jacob’s meditative drumming to accompany you through an immersive experience. Come prepared to lay or sit comfortably on the floor for this segment.

There will be time to decorate our drum frames with art, runes, symbols or messages.

Then, learn a traditional technique for stretching animal skin around a wooden frame to complete your living drum.

This new drum is yours to keep!, and a great tool to have in applying methods and techniques learned in Jacob’s “Ancient Drumming” Course.

*This event takes place in Birmingham, England the week of the “One Day, One Tribe” Heilung conference. Jacob will guide drumming classes/circles throughout the week as well (see other events) so attendees have an opportunity to craft their drum and learn drumming techniques before the conference. Space is limited!
