Join us for this third Tribal Gathering that brings together participants from the vital Austin Shamanism community. This time we will begin with a brief introductory exploration of shamanic TranceDance, a body-centered pathway of music and movement.

TranceDance is a blindfolded ecstatic dance experience that combines rhythm and movement, unencumbered by vision. Not distracted by what you see, and without concern for how you might look to others, you can release your mind and let the music dance you. Please feel free to bring your own bandanna or blindfold, and we do have a limited number to borrow.

Following the TranceDance, join us for drumming, food, conversation, and community, with our ongoing drumming circle and potluck feast. Break bread with us together, visit with others in the Austin shamanism community, share the heartbeat of the drum and the smiles of our hearts. We look forward to seeing everyone there.

    •  I so needed this. Thank you to everyone who attended and who made it possible. I felt refreshed and connected afterward. 
    •  I left this evening after the session feeling calm and less burdened, than when I arrived. Everyone I chatted with was very friendly and I am sure in time I will come to know everyone. This was my first experience with Trance Dance, which I have to admit I am no dancer by any means. However with the blindfolds I was able to listen and feel the music which started my feet and body moving. Next time I will bring my drum! 
    •  This was a very enjoyable gathering. Many thanks to all of the people that helped organize and facilitate the event.

       I enjoyed the community, drumming, ritual, feast, and especially a taste of TranceDance.
