SUMMER HEAT DRUM RETREAT

This will be the 4th annual immersion into the world of djembe music taught by the Director of Tam Tam Mandingue - Chicago, Taylor called the Summer Heat Drum Retreat. There will be several classes per day, a DRUMeditation, an open mic night, storytelling around the fire and lots more great stuff. This all takes place in the beautiful grounds of the Oakwood Farm retreat center in Selma, IN. You can have a private or shared indoor room or camp and use indoor showers and bathrooms. It will be Thursday to Sunday, but there will be options if you can’t do the whole time. This year will be extra special as the Summer Solstice happens during the retreat; this same date is when Grand Master Drummer Mamady Keita transitioned to the realm of the ancestors in 2021. During last years DRUMeditation there was clear signals from the non-manifest realm that Mamady was there with us as I am sure he will definitely be this time.
