With Mark and Derek, I experienced a shamanic drumming experience that permitted me to truly be only in my body, my feeling right brain, for the first time in my life. This was a critical part of my journey this year, as my relationship with my body is now completely different than ever before, allowing me to experience emotions in a way that I never have before. The storytelling was fantastic as well, but clearly I benefited most from the actual drumming and resonance inside of my head. I would highly recommend this experience to anyone who needs to better understand their own bodies or emotions.

I really enjoyed Mark and Derek shamanic Journey course since it gave us all a chance to explore our 'shamanic selves' through various drumming and trance meditations and their followup conversations. I now have a deeper appreciation of the value of shamanistic practices. One area that I hadn't previously explored was the Underworld, and we were provided a forum for that journey. The program was well paced, masterfully led, and certainly helpful.

Thank you, gents, for an incredible experience. Your shared wisdom and knowledge helped me assimilate my journeys easily. Your tandem setup created such a lovely atmosphere to let go and truly let the ordinary and extraordinary merge in a blissful time.

Derek and Mark have a presence that invited gentle exploration of my inner consciousness. The safety and guidance is very sacred and has allowed me to dig deep into myself for clarity.
