Yawanawa Song Study
Chants & Guitar Study
Sept. 3rd - 24th via Zoom
(With Recordings)A sacred offering rarely shared outside the forest.
With Keneihu & Shawma Yawanawa from Mutum.
Sacred prayers from the heart of the Amazon that heal, connect, and awaken the spirit.
They carry ancestral teachings and the living essence of healing through voice, sound & the spirits of nature.
(Play videos to listen to the Mutum Village chanting.)The Saitis (traditional songs) are the heartbeat of the Yawanawa people.
Keneihu & Shawma Yawanawa…
Are leaders from a powerful lineage and incredible musicians from Mutum Village in the heart of the Amazon in Acre, Brazil.
We will be able to study the Yawanawa prayers and beautiful melodies on the guitar (the instrument is optional.)
Together, we will share prayers, songs, and the power of our voices, guided by the beauty and wisdom of the Yawanawa ancestral universe… a sacred offering rarely shared outside the forest.

Traditional Prayers & Guitar Classes
-
Since the beginning of time, the Yawanawa have sung their traditional songs, using only the voice… pure expressions of nature itself.
After the contact, guitars and drums entered the Yawanawa universe, inspiring angelic compositions that now resonate far beyond the forest, reaching hearts across the world.
Bring your voice, guitar or simply the wish to study with this tradition, and allow yourself to be guided by the natural, vibrant and musical universe of the Yawanawa people!
-
No, guitars are optional. For the guitar song teachings, you can also learn the melodies without the instrument.
-
This study is online, live-streamed directly from the forest with Keneihu & Shawma, translated to English by Luiza. Studies will happen every Thursday in September.
-
For those who can’t make it live, you can study at your own pace through the recordings.
Live classes are encouraged to be in the energy together and there will be a WhatsApp group to get feedback from Keneihu & Shawma.
