Description
Medicine Hand Drum Workshop: Rhythm as Sacred Gateway
Setting intention. Grounding presence. Awakening the healer within.
In our everyday lives, we often find ourselves wearing masks—projecting versions of ourselves rather than simply being. The Medicine Hand Drum Workshop creates a sacred ceremonial container where that need falls away. Here, we gather to explore the drum not merely as an instrument, but as a powerful ally for grounding, meditation, and spiritual empowerment. As rhythm brings both hemispheres of your brain into resonance, you will embark on a guided hand-drum journey that deepens your connection to yourself and awakens the healer that lives within you.
What You'll Experience:
An introduction to the sacred symbolism and healing medicine of the hand drum
Guided rhythmic patterns that anchor you in present-moment awareness
A full hand-drum journey with visualization and voice activation
The profound effects of synchronized rhythm on body, mind, and spirit
Tools for grounding and empowerment you can carry forward into your daily life
Who This Is For:
This workshop welcomes all seekers, regardless of experience. Whether you're new to drum work or have been journeying with rhythm for years, there is a place for you in this circle. No prior drumming experience is necessary—only an open heart and willingness to explore.
What to Bring:
A hand drum or shaker (or bring both!)
A water bottle
A notebook and pen for reflections
Accessibility:
We are committed to creating an inclusive space. If you have mobility, sensory, or other access needs, please reach out to The Healing Shoppe and we will do our best to accommodate you.
A Limited, Sacred Circle:
This is an intentionally small gathering—only 8–15 participants—to honor the intimacy and depth of this ceremonial work. Spaces are limited and fill quickly. We encourage early registration to secure your place.

With warmth & gratitude,

About the Instructor:
Hector, known as Puma, is a ceremonialist and healing arts practitioner deeply connected to his ancestral roots from Meshiko. Along with his connection with the medicine of cacao, he bridges the teachings of "Toltecayotl," the art of living and the practice of self-cultivation, by weaving indigenous perspectives into his offerings.
He is guided by compassion, discipline, and integrity. He creates sacred spaces for personal growth and transformation.
His Ceremonial Drumming workshops and Cacao Circles are powerful experiences designed to help you release blocks to your spiritual connection. Through the drum and sacred ritual, you'll tap into your innate wisdom, step into your power, and share from your heart, fostering deep healing and truly embodying your authentic self.
