This two-day workshop requires shamanic journeying experience.

This workshop teaches participants to make a traditional rawhide or gourd rattle from start (cutting out the rawhide) to finish (painting and decorating). We journey to our allies for guidance on the design, so no two rattles are alike, and most rattles will be very detailed. Similar rattles, bought in a store, are worth $50 - $200. Even people with no artistic experience have produced exceptionally beautiful rattles with a very fine sound.

Participants may bring additional items to decorate their rattles, and Bekki teaches peyote and brick stitch beadwork for those who want to use it for decoration.

Advance registration is required to attend all Church of Earth Healing classes and workshops. See the Schedule for when and where Rattle- making workshops are next offered.
