Luisah Teish

Luisah Teish returns to the Neahtawanta Inn a weekend retreat for women

October 11-13, 1991

Luisah Teish, author of the witty and provocative Jambala: The Natural Woman's Book of Personal Charms and Practical Rituals, is a woman of wide-ranging talents: dancer, choreographer, storyteller, actress, teacher, ritualist, and writer. Born and raised in New Orleans, she is a priestess of Oshun in the Yoruba Lucumi tradition from Africa.

In this workshop Teish will guide us in creating sacred space for experiencing ritual based on the West African Yoruban tradition, including drumming, movement and deep personal sharing. We will gather at the Neahtawanta Inn on the Old Mission Peninsula, north of Traverse City, surrounded by woods and water.
