Becoming a Shamanic Practitioner
The Second Year of the Circle of Stones.
Are you carrying in your heart a dream to become a shamanic practitioner?
Doing this work is a tremendous joy and privilege for me. The precious moments I spend with those who sit in my healing room, or my Zoom room, bring deep meaning and richness to my life. You too can experience this powerful connection.
Who can join
After you complete all four seasons of the Shamanic Dance Around the Medicine Wheel – or if you bring other in-depth shamanic training or experience – you may apply for the second year of the Circle of Stones.
What you will learn
We dive deeply into the ethics, skills and tools needed to:
- journey for others, to help them discover their guides or gifts
- use sound healing instruments and techniques for healing, peace and balance
- create ceremonies to honor experiences, or to plant the seeds of prayer
- learn the Soul Retrieval Ceremony to share with others
We acknowledge and honor our teachers and Ancestors, seen and unseen, and the Spirit of Creator that moves through everything.

Cyndy “Snake Dancer” Paige
Cyndy “Snake Dancer” Paige received her name from Great Spirit in a profound vision quest, and knew it was a call to a healing path. Snake is regarded as a healer and teacher in spiritual traditions throughout the world, and holds a special place in the Native American medicine tradition.
Cyndy is of Muscogee Creek and Choctaw heritage and is a long-time Council member of the Buffalo Trace Society, founded by the late Grandmother Pathweaver. Over three decades she has completed multi-year initiatory apprenticeships with many medicine teachers, a master drummer, a Grammy-nominated sound healer, a pioneer in past life regression, and numerous healers.
She founded Rhythm of the Earth in 2013 to share healing and earth-based spirituality through her private healing practice, one- and two-year shamanic apprenticeships, vision quests, solstice and equinox retreats, and workshops. She is a guest speaker at conferences and independent schools, and she creates – and helps others create – personal medicine tools such as drums, rattles and medicine bags. She humbly honors her teachers, both seen and unseen.
