SAITE CHANTS WORKSHOP WITH THE YAWANAWA IN MIAMI

It's an honor to invite you all to meet this incredible tribe from the Brazilian Amazon. They are coming from very far away to share their profound & beautiful music and chants, their wisdom, and their culture.


Please join us in a saite chants study, a workshop that is rarely offered where we can learn some of their powerfu, healing, and beautiful chants and songs bringing us to that connection with the deep Amazon Forest!!!


THE YAWANAWA

The Yawanawa people live along the banks of the Gregorio River, in the Brazilian state of Acre. They are the guardians of some 500,000 acres of Amazonian rainforest, of which about 95% has been kept intact. In the most biodiverse biome on the planet, their ancestors developed a vast knowledge of the healing plants of the forest and a cosmovision of great spiritual wisdom.

The Yawanawa's first contact with the non-indigenous world happened a little over a hundred years ago. The initial conflicts reduced the Yawanawa family to less than 100 people. For decades they endured the presence of the rubber industry and the missionaries who invaded their lands and tried to forbid Yawanawá language, culture and spirituality. In the 1980s, their fight for the recognition of their ancestral territory led the Yawanawá to become the first indigenous people to obtain the official rights to their lands in the state of Acre.

Under the guidance and teachings of pajés Tata and Yawa, the last living elders and medicine men of their people, the Yawanawa have been on a profound journey of cultural and spiritual revival. Their sacred rituals, prayers, songs and art are now celebrated all year round. In the last 20 years, the Yawanawa leaders have been dedicated to developing a model of sustainability that allows them to engage with the outside world on their own terms, without compromising their cultural and spiritual identity. Nowadays, the Yawanawa population is estimated at over 1200 people, 80% of which are children and youth. The new generations carry their identity with pride and are committed to the continuation of the legacy of their ancestors.

In the last decade the Yawanawa youth introduced instruments such as guitars, flutes and drums into their traditional ceremonies and prayers, and an exceptional musical culture has been rising from deep in the Amazon rainforest. Combined with their powerful voices, Yawanawa music is now known around the world and the new generation of Yawanawa leaders travel the world to share the message of the forest through their ancestral prayers and phenomenal music.
