Drums of the Ancestors – intensive
Rituals with the shaman drum for Ancestral Healing
Oct 17th & 18th 2020 – Vienna
Please note: Since you will journey for yourself and others intensively in this training, the prerequisite for this advanced training is that you have completed the shamanic journeying training and are applying this in your life. If you have trained in shamanic journeying with someone else, you can contact Roel for an intake to see if participation is possible.
This intensive is intended for people who already have their own shaman drum and want to deepen their work with it. Central to this workshop is your own connection with the soul of the drum and your connection with the Ancestor Field.
This is an exceptional workshop which Roel does not give very often. A unique opportunity.
Ancient Power of the Shaman Drum
The drum is an ancient instrument that, for many peoples, is interwoven with the sacred dimension of life. It is undoubtedly one of the core instruments in shamanism worldwide and we can find old images of the shaman drum and its relationship with ritual, divine power and shamanic practice.
The legend says that the universe rests in the drum and when you have already opened yourself to its power, you were probably struck by its wonderful vibration. The drum touches us to the soul. Its possibilities for healing, revelation and creation are endless.
Discover your own path of the drum.
The drum is also called “the horse of the shaman” and shamans worldwide talk about their profound, personal relationship with the spirit of the drum.
In this intensive course you will learn how to deepen the work with your own drum and how to work with it in a practical way, from many different approaches. The focus is on healing for yourself and the ancestor field, working with perception of the soul dimension and creative power.
Work with the drum & the Ancestor field.
The focus of this intensive weekend workshop is on your personal connection with the shaman drum and how to work with the drum in relation to the Ancestor field.
We look at our relationship with the ancestors and how we can strengthen our relationship with them through working with the drum and bring it to a place of strength, inspiration and support.
This includes not only healing work, but also working with ritual space, within which ceremony can arise.
Your personal work in both spirit and working with sound is central.
You learn to work with the following aspects:
- Working with the drum for revelation of the Soul and wider perception.
- Working with the spiritual dimension of the Ancestors and how to strengthen your connection.
- Ancestral guidance and strength.
- The drum in Conscious Creation through ritual and prayer.
- Connect with power and the spiritual dimension.
- The drum as a catalyst for energy and healing.
- Healing rituals for yourself and the ancestor field.
Working with the drum as an ally. - Working with an ancestral guide as an ally.
- Harmonization of the energy body with the drum.
- Creating ritual space with the drum.
“Drums of the Ancestors” is an inspiring intensive for people who have a shaman drum and are ready to cultivate a deep connection with their drum and to use it for healing and making a connection with the Ancestral field. We work with rituals for transformation, shamanic meditations and healing.
- This training is only for people who already have a shaman drum. (frame drum type or double sided). When in doubt, contact Roel.
- Please note: this is not a percussion workshop. This training focuses on shamanic working with the drum and healing.
- It is not appropriate to use someone else’s drum. In this training you will make a deep alliance with the drum, so that you can continue to work independently with healing.
- The prerequisite for this advanced training is that you have completed the shamanic journeying training and are applying this in your life. If you have trained in shamanic journeying with someone else, you can contact Roel for an intake to see if participation is possible.

“The weekend gave me many new insights into the Path I am on and it was a confirmation to me that I should definitely continue to study shamanic techniques and even more importantly to apply them in my life.I am glad that I was able to make my first journey under supervision because that was a threshold for me. I also had several moments during the weekend that I felt a strong sense of coming home and feeling held, a truly blissful feeling. The energy that was present in our circle was also very warm and loving.
Thank you Roel for your wonderful guidance and for sharing your own experiences with us. “

I also experience a kind of peace that has come into my life.”
“I can not help but thank you a thousand times for this incredibly gentle and warm guidance during my first shamanic trance journeys :-).
The group also felt very loving and I really felt like being able to be myself with all my talents and limitations.
I have already done many workshops and courses, spread over a little four years. This goes very deep for me and feels like I have to be here! Thanks again, with loving tears in my eyes. Greetings”
“Shamanism has put me back on my path. Through these workshops with Roel, I feel again what connectivity means.
We journey to the other worlds to get to know our guides and to learn from them. For me, Roel is also my guide, who shows with a warm heart, the possibilities to connect with yourself, with others, with nature, with everything that is …
Time and again it is a feeling of coming home. Thank you!”
“what I experienced from the course is the subtle touch of that moving beauty, which is our own and which we regularly think is outside of us. I was and am grateful for the connection between al of us, serving the unity field … a wonderful experience that I wish everyone …I also appreciated that you offered wisdoms. I experienced them as an invitation to experience them, developing their own truth …”
