~ Testimonials ~
"I made my fist hoop drum in the early 80's and it has remained a powerful ritual and personal tool. There is nothing more intimate and magical than beating, and hearing the voice from, a drum of your own creation." -- Wind Hughes
"What a privilege to spend a day with you, let alone being able to put together a drum. I am still awed by the experience". -- Marge Perry
"I really enjoyed the workshop and your generous way of helping all of us novice drum-makers through our various levels of uncertainty, confusion and fear that we'd mess it up!! I now have a very special drum that I've made with my own hands in the same way that many other hands have made drums for eons. You've truly given me, and others I'm sure, a very special gift. -- Lesly Ivy

The world gets crazier and crazier everyday, doesn't it? The world that many
of us thought was there, isn't. The bottom has dropped out of everything. The
illusions have been revealed, we have found out who has been pulling the strings
behind the scenes. Millions have lost their jobs, have mortgage
problems, and
foreclosure. What can be done? Amazingly, we have been mislead. We have been
taught that we can control government by voting. The founder of the Rothschild
dynasty, Mayer Amschel Bauer, told the secret of controlling the government
of a nation over 200 years ago. He said, "Permit
me to issue and control the money of a nation and I care not who makes its
laws." Get
the picture? Your freedom hinges first on the nation's banks and money system.
It's all about 'commerce'. Freedom is connected with Debt Elimination for
each individual. Not only does this end
personal debt, it places the people first in line
as creditors to the National Debt ahead of the banks. They don't wish for
you to know this. It has to do with recognizing WHO you really are in A
New Beginning: A Practical Course in Miracles, an informational study. Is
your credit rating bad for reasons that seem out of your control? There are
ways of credit repair,
so you can men those broken fences too. Do you want to keep your children protected
from outside forces, there are ways of protecting
your children. Do you want
to keep your sons and daughters free from 'the draft'? Check this out.
