William does everything with intention, integrity and care. I have attended his workshops, played and owned instruments... made by him, and used employed his artistic/design skills- always to my full satisfaction. Recently have been impressed with his feather protector spray. I would stand by and reccommend any of his products and services 100%.read more

Anniversary drum making workshop at @archaic_roots
Anniversary drum making workshop at @archaic_roots today! I’ve been focused on offering private workshops since 2020. Considering the times, private workshops has been the safest and most considerate way to teach in the last year. Personally, private workshops are some of my favorites to facilitate. Reach out to schedule your private workshop! #archaicroots #workshops #drummaking #drum #djembe #djembebuilding #drumworkshop #drumming #africandrum #educationalworkshop

I know, it’s been a while. Been focused on @archaicfarmstead and completing some essential shop duties. I’m still offering private workshops if anyone’s interested. Here’s a piece I recently carved for my daughters birthday. I wanted to give my daughter the first jade carving I’ve ever completed. Carved in Guatemalan jade, this pendant has many symbolic references; such as the moon, snake, and Taino symbol for the feminine and our cemi Atabey . #archaicroots #jade #jadecarving #stonecarving #pendant #handmade #jadependant #carvingjade #birthhdaygift #taino #tainoindian #cemi #atabey

In the ancient days of the past in some areas of the America’s “Old Old Coyote” brought the gift of drumming to the people. Today old coyote is bringing a healing hand salve to the dedicated drummers of the present. This formula of coconut oil, Shea & Cocoa butter, and bees wax; infused with Plantain leaf, Calendula and CBD. This holistic salve will help you keep drumming for hours to come, infused with medicinal plants and extracts that help with skin and inflammation. Drum all night long with the wisdom of Ancient Coyote’s Drummer’s Hand Salve. 2oz of salve in each tin https://www.archaicroots.com/shop-now/ancient-coyotes-drummers-hand-salve/ #drummer #salve #medicinalherbs #healingsalve #archaicroots #huehuecoyotle #coyote #handdrummer #djembe #drumming #drumlife

Wanna know why I’ve been so quiet? I’ve had tons of large and small projects going on the last few months. This image is from the recent ditch that was cut for power capabilities to my shed. I’m converting my shed over to a full workshop for instruments and stone/bone carving. I’m really excited to be able to produce more flutes and drums, as well as start carving more stone (especially jade). I’ve also been working on refurbishing the rabbit colonies, clearing land and building more raised beds for the farm, and creating hemp based products to sell via @archaicfarmstead. Look out for more creativity being displayed in the next few weeks.
