Ceremonial Raramuri Tarahumara Drum Hand drums like these are utilized in ceremonies by the Raramuri (Tarahumara) people in the northern region of Chihuahua, Mexico. The Raramuri are considered one of the fastest runners of the world. They continue to honor their ancestral traditions and customs. The Raramuri were first called "Tarahumara" by the Spanish. Raramuri is their original native name. Each drum has a different sound. It is made of pine wood and donkey skin. This drum was made by a Raramuri elder. You will receive the drum and drum stick listed. If you would like to know the sound of the drum, please message me and I will gladly attach a short video with sound of the drum. Diameter- 7 inches

PIES LIGEROS sandals, allow you to have a free step, helping you have a better posture with their zerodrop sole and adjustable straps, allows you to exercise your toes to have a better grip into the ground. Whether you are a professional runner or just looking for a better spine and look good, this is your best option. You can use them to run marathons or to go out to dinner, and you will look great in your barefoot leather sandals!! Inspired in the Tarahumara or Raramuri native culture (where I am from), well known for their amazing ability to run and win Ultra Marathons WorldWide, I created with a small variation in the design adding a hand carved leather feather, in the resemblance of the lightness in running of this ancestral culture,why they are called ¨Pies Ligeros¨(light feet) They are 100% leather and the sole is made of hard foam rubber for lumbar support. Combining comfort and lightness in your step, these sandals can be used in any occasion. For hiking up a hill or mountain or to wear with a pair of jeans to party and look very Chic and comfortable enough to dance the night away! I hope you enjoy your sandals as much as all the happy shoppers! Thank you for appreciating the handmade art and craftsmanship!

En racontant quelques-unes des plus incroyables courses d'" ultra " de la planète, l'auteur nous plonge aux limites de l'endurance humaine, dans un plaidoyer convaincant pour une philosophie du dépouillement : la course minimaliste.
