Norse Shamanic Traditions: "Volva Kona:" Staving Workshop w/ Kari Tauring (second Saturday of every month).

Part of the Volva Kona Staving Workshop Series. The Stav is traditionally used in herding, martial arts, and for rhythm. Stav (literally means "knowledge of the rune staves") is used in Volva seidr work, the Norse Shamanic tradition.The Volva are women described throughout the Sagas and Eddas performing shamanic oracular work, blessings, and other ritual tasks. They are described as carrying a staff or Stav, which is the tool Kari Tauring uses in this open series of workshops.

One Saturday each month (usually the 2nd--see the store calendar), Kari leads a two hour workshop to explore the history of the Volva and the uses of the Stav. We recommend you bring a staff and another stick or wand. Class size is limited to 8, so please register in advance the secure your spot. Register online or call the store at 612-872-1292.

Every session starts with stretching and introduction of the topic. Body mechanics, vocalization, discussion, story telling, and practice of the particular skill being worked on will integrate the new learning. Come with a stick, note book and pencil, and dress to move.

With over 20 years of performance and martial arts experience, Kari's sessions include stretching our bodies and body mechanics, creating rhythms, warming up our voices for chants and songs, discussing the history and uses of the tool as per the topic of the day
