Inspired by the teachings of Wallace Black Elk, a revered holy man from the Lakota tribe in North and South Dakota, Dean has delved deep into his lineage, learning the sacred ways of the Inipi Drum passed down through generations. With a profound reverence for these ancient traditions, Dean is dedicated to bringing these sacred teachings back into the modern world, aiming to realign and reconnect individuals so they can stand at the center of their own universe where true healing can take place — between heaven and earth.
