An evening of Mexican prehispanic cosmology and spirituality

This extraordinary and unique evening is one based in Mexican prehispanic cosmology and spirituality. Experience simple and powerful rituals together with unique musical instruments used by Olmecs, Toltecs, Aztecs, and Mayans that Claudio has brought back with him from Mexico. The instruments include clay flutes, clay drums, medicine drums, ocarinas, wooden flutes, shells, and shakers skilfully arranged to create magical shamanic atmospheres.

A cacao sharing ceremony will help open the heart, reconnect with the earth element, ignite your fire, and get you up and moving.

What to expect:

• Cleansing copal and herbal welcoming.

• Talk about the use of music in the ancient times. 

• An opening ceremony to acknowledge the Tlalmanalli (offering and altar) with the deep sound of the conch shell in the four directions.

• Cacao ceremony: Claudio will offer the cacao drink as a connection with the earth, to yourself, and the moment.

• Live music that invokes many emotions and imagery, from contemplative natural and mystical environments to uplifting and empowering rhythms. You are free to project and explore within and/ or express and liberate projecting outwards.

• We will finish with a shamanic atmosphere relaxation and close the event with a traditional chant.

No previous experience is required.

What to bring:

Wear comfortable clothing! Bring an open heart and a mind ready to learn and receive. You are also welcome to bring a fruit and or a flower to contribute to the altar.
