Drum Rhythms of the Haitian Vodou Tradition with Ryan Anderson at the Pavilion
Ryan Anderson will teach some drum rhythms of the Haitian Vodou tradition (more like a demonstration as certain drums are used and I don't imagine there will be many if any of these types of drums present). So I'll play some rhythms, have a dancer doing the dance that accompany each rhythm.
People are still encouraged to participate, there are a few parts where djembes and such can be used. The purpose of these rhythms is to creat a trance state thus inviting the Lwa (spirit) to arrive.
Shamanic Journeying with Ryan Anderson at the Pavilion
Join Ryan has he guides you with a shamanic journey.

Temple and Ritual Dance Workshop - Temple and Ritual Dance in the evening with Laurelei at the Main Fire/Drum Shelter
In this 2-hour class, learn the basic shapes made by the body in traditional bellydance, discuss the differences between stage performance and temple dance, and practice moving energy through the body to create ritual modes of movement.
This class is open to anyone (male or female) who is willing to try to dance. Movement and dance are often based in experimentation and practice, much like magick. Since this class features BOTH, an audience would likely be unsettling for beginners.
Please bring plenty of water and a towel to sit on. Wear comfy shoes (or none at all).
