An Immersive Shamanic Drum Experience in a Handcrafted Kota
Experience a shamanic journey in Lapland – come for a restorative sound journey!
In our garden stands small handcrafted kota, with a fire crackling at its heart. Wooden benches line the walls and you settle beside the flames. You’re wrapped up warmly, as outside the frost grips hard and winter paints its light across the sky – in stars, northern lights, or the sun’s low-hanging glow.
Your hosts step inside with their drums. The rhythm begins slowly and fills the space. The sound travels through your body, your eyes drift closed and your mind grows still. All that remains is the fire, the rhythm of the drum, and this moment.
We welcome groups of 2–6 people. The experience is offered as a private booking, with a minimum charge for two people. A small group allows for a peaceful, focused experience around the fire and drum.
The drum session isn’t a performance or a lecture. We’re not here to entertain, but to create a space where you can quieten down and simply be. The experience is built on sound, fire, and presence – not on words.
The drum’s vibrations affect many people deeply. It can relax the body, open the mind, and bring emotions or visions to the surface. Each person experiences the moment in their own way. There’s a touch of northern silence and a hint of mysticism woven through.
Price:
290 € for 2 people.
Additional participants +50 € / person (max. 6 people)
The small group size keeps the experience peaceful and personal.
The experience takes place in Savukoski, in the village of Tanhua, nestled in Lapland’s tranquillity. Detailed directions will be sent with your booking confirmation.
I’m Sari, “Rumpu-ukko” – an entrepreneur from Savukoski, from the village of Tanhua. I’ve been handcrafting shamanic drums for over ten years. Nearly 2,500 of them have found homes around the world.
The drum isn’t a performance piece for me – it’s part of life. I also work with sound and presence, and I know how the drum’s pulse can affect body and mind. The kota in our garden isn’t a stage set, but a place where I find peace by the fire with my shamanic drum in my hands.
Now I’m ready to share this moment with you too.

Shamanic drum Ocean Dreams 2400 – Adjustable
Have you been searching for a shamanic drum that performs reliably regardless of the weather? Kuuvi answers this need: it's a companion that travels with you on sound journeys with certainty and consistency.
Natural patterns have etched themselves into Kuuvi's skin, opening a calm, grounded space for the player. Kuuvi invites you into a rhythm felt more in the body than heard by the ears; it's a drum that pauses with you and moves at exactly the pace your inner spirit guides.
This magnificent, large-sized shamanic drum with excellent sound is handcrafted in our Lapland workshop. This unique drum conjures a meditative atmosphere with its deep sound. Its tone quietens the mind and relaxes tense muscles down to the cellular level. You can use the drum to deepen your meditation, create an enchanting atmosphere in group settings, or help clients relax during treatments.
The adjustment mechanism of the drum makes it a reliable companion. Even in humid summer weather, you won't be caught out, as you can easily adjust the skin tension using the inner tube. This is a particularly handy feature when you need an "always-ready" drum for healing work or performances. The adjustment mechanism operates simply through a car tyre valve. Note! We use a car valve, which is easier to adjust. An ordinary bicycle pump won't work with this valve.
Nature and caring for it is very important to us, which is why we source the drum's materials primarily from local, responsible suppliers. The frame is bent from double birch plywood, which is treated with wood wax. The shamanic drum's skin is Finnish reindeer hide, either natural or dyed in stunning colours with water-based stain. The drum's handle is made from wood gathered from the forest, shaped to fit the hand comfortably and bound into a cross with cord. The handle provides an excellent playing grip on the drum.
Delivery includes:
- Drum (diameter 51 cm, weight approximately 1 kg)
- Drumstick (colour and shape may vary from the image)
- Comprehensive care instructions
N.B. An adjustable drum is a functional solution, but even it won't sound in extreme conditions. Also note that pumping air in—tightening/loosening—stretches the drum skin and over time diminishes the skin's playing qualities. Oiling keeps the skin supple. For long-term storage, it's worth releasing the air from the tube so it doesn't unnecessarily strain the skin.
VIDEO – NOTE! PREFERABLY LISTEN WITH HEADPHONES. Because the recording was made with a phone, the sound reproduction isn't the best possible.
