Please join us on Sunday, January 5th, at 4:30 pm in Waimanalo at Green Rows Farm.

Bana Kuma Oahu has been drumming, dancing, and singing up a prayerful musical creation this week and we would love for all of our community to come enjoy the celebration with us when we offer up our Prayerformance. Afterwards, we will spend some time with Chris Berry and his Mbira around a fire, sharing stories & songs.

All are welcome. Bring a blanket or chairs to sit on the grass. Bring your own food and beverages to enjoy on the lawn. A $10 donation is appreciated. ​

Immerse yourself into 5 Days of Learning Universal Wisdom through the scope of Bana Kuma and applying it to Music, Dance, and Ceremony! Join Master Conductor Chris Berry in Creating, Learning, and Presenting a 'Prayer-formance' at Bana Kuma Oahu 2020! This multi-day Master Class with Chris Berry is highly anticipated every year. Song, dance, diverse instrumentation and ancient wisdom are seamlessly woven together as an offering to our ancestors and a celebration of our unique gift as a human to transform etherial thought into tangible reality. The culminating orchestration is a Prayerformance for the community. It is simply an unforgettable experience. No experience necessary, absolute beginners will be accommodated, and all are welcome!

January 1-5, 2020, at Kanu & Green Rows Farm in Waimanalo!

Throughout this experience we will gather as community in ceremonial setting. We will learn rhythms composed by Chris Berry, and experience a taste of the sacred altering possible when we imbue the rhythms with sacred intention.
