Here is what workshop participants are saying:
"Last night, I spent two hours with Axis Mundi founder
Sondra Slade, being tutored by her in “trance drumming.”
Sondra is a marvelous teacher, extraordinary drummer,
and utterly delicious human being. My arms and hands
became birds diving and slicing through time to land on
the drumhead of Eternity. A joyous elation flooded my
body, mind, and heart. My thoughts did not define me, nor
limit me, nor prevent me from entering a sensual world
beyond thoughts and concepts, a world of feeling, rhythm,
vibration, pulse, and primal conscious energy."
