This unique and intimate workshop with Zarina will
introduce you to some of the ancient songs and rituals of the shamanic arctic
Siberian Sakha people. Shamanic sound healing has been used by first peoples to
attain altered states & communicate with the spirit world. This workshop
will introduce you to moving thru & working with the 3 worlds: The Lower,
the Middle and the Higher. You will explore the traditional song Toyuk of the
Shamanic Arctic Siberian Sakha communities, a reindeer breath work (arctic
throat beat-box), the sounds of northern birds and animals, and how to dance
sacred geometry dance called "Pattern" and traditional Northern
people's dance. Closing the workshop, we will join in the ancient collective
Salama ceremony connecting to universal energy and putting our prayers together
for the earth and all beings to have healing.
Zarina Kopyrina is a walker between worlds. A verifiable
enigma, often baffling and mesmerizing her audiences with profound vocal ranges
from the primal chaos of underworld creatures, to soaring heights of birds and
angels. Adept at overtone throat singing, reindeer breath and mouth harp, she
effortlessly lulls people into non-ordinary states of trance and healing. She
grew up in a small village of 900 people in Arctic Siberia and remembers from 3
years old, singing traditional songs and talking to animals. In 2012, a Tungus
Siberian shaman blessed her with permission to play the shamanic drum and sing
sacred songs.
