Watkanonweratons - Welcome
She:kon, Sewakwekon. Wakatshenonni tsi tesewe.
Welcome to The Mohawk Flute and Peace Tree Cultural Consultants website. I have been a musician since I was ten years old, playing different instruments and then began playing the cedar flute in 1991. This site is about the flute and the music that I make with it. This beautiful instrument has a long history associated with it that varies with each tribal nation that used the flute. I have also worked as an Elder, traditional teacher, educator, dancer, singer and counselor. As such we also offer you the services of Peace Tree Cultural Consultants as an organization that does educational cultural sessions, workshops, and conferences with individuals, couples, or groups to help people to understand the need to live in peaceful co-existence with each other and how to achieve that goal. All of our work is based on sound teachings of who we are as Onkwehonwe people and how we have been taught to relate to the rest of humanity and the created order.
This site is also about the lifestyle we live as Onkwehonwe (the Real People) according to our beliefs and values we have been given from our Creator, our Elders and our culture. We strive to share that cultural basis with all who will listen and who welcome us to come and share with them. We follow the teachings that have been given to us according to the Great Law of Peace, the Kaianerenko:wa. All things we do are out of respect for our ancestors, who have passed on, yet still watch over us, the present generation of Onkwehonwe people, and those children who have not yet been born, the coming generations.
We wish you peace as you spend a little time with us, either here, on the internet, or in person by inviting Sakoieta' to come and share Mohawk culture and teachings with you. Take care and stay strong. Onen ki wahi.
Please take the time to read or sign my guestbook. You'll find it on the "Contact Us" page. Thank you. Niawenh.
