Lorriiii Dragon Dream is an experienced International Shamanic Teacher and Practitioner, Certified Sundoor Firewalk Instructor Empowerment Coach/Trainer, Yoga Teacher,  Owner and Creator of spiritdrumming.com, Co-Owner of Traveller’s Joy and The Moving Mandala and more

Although Lorriiii’s official initiation into Shamanism was in 2007, she was born with the ability to see/feel energy and has always felt a deep connection to the Ancestors, to the Trees, to the Spirits of the Land and to all of Nature.

For most of her adult life, Lorriiii has been studying different Healing Modalities and deeply resonates with the guiding principle of Shamanism which is that everything that exists is alive and connected (through the web of life). That we are interwoven with each other, with the Earth and with All That Is.

Since 2007 Lorriiii has experienced many deeper Shamanic Initiations such as; Participating in numerous Shamanic Training Programs. Working with Grandmother Nancy Dancing Light (her Shamanic Teacher and Creator of The Star Dragon Lineage Contemporary Celtic Shamanism Lineage) since 2009. Participating and later facilitating ceremony and Sacred Pilgrimage on many Ancient Lands and Sacred Sites throughout the world. Participating in a contemporary Shamanic Training Program called The Moving Mandala and then becoming a Moving Mandalas Teacher in 2012 and Teaching the program in England and throughout Canada. Facilitating intentional Shamanic Drum Circles, dedicated to Ceremony, Intentional Drumming and building Sacred Community (for over 10 years). And More.

As a Certified Sundoor Firewalk Instructor/Teacher Lorriiii works closely with the energies of the Fire and loves to guide others on the path of awakened courage and empowered living. Since her first Firewalk Lorriiii has danced with the fire hundreds of times and continues to facilitate Fire ceremonies throughout Canada.

In 2021 Lorriiii retired from her 31 year career of working with energy, in the Electrical/Hydoelectric Operating discipline at various Electrical Transmission/Distribution/Water Management Companies in Ontario. She was the first woman to hold the position of River Control Supervisor at Ontario Power Generation/New York Power Authority’s International Control Dam where she worked very closely with the Niagara River and Niagara Falls ~ predicting flows, dispatching water to Power companies, making adjustments to assist in emergency rescue procedures  and managing the Niagara River & Niagara Falls. Lorriii feels very honoured and humbled to have been Steward of the River, where her first priority was maintaining the natural Beauty of Niagara Falls.

In 2020 Lorriiii and her business partner and fellow Shamanic Practitioner, Breny Mason, purchased The Moving Mandala Shamanic Training Program and Traveller’s Joy ~ Tours with Spirit from Grandmother Nancy Dancing Light and they continue to offer (both online & in person) sessions and training programs as well as to develop new offerings and Star Dragon Lineage Training programs.

In addition to Lorriiii's accomplishments, most recently, she has acquired her Interfaith Officiant licence. Lorriiii is excited and honoured to Officiate both Funerals/End of Life Celebrations and Weddings through Ethereal Energy Interfaith Officiants. (See Website

"Among other things, I believe that the most powerful creative forces are ignited by conscious acts of Compassion and Love. That when we, through Ceremony, put conscious action into heart felt intention, we open more fully to and connect more deeply with the creative and healing energies of Life and Love.

And among other things, my prayer/intention, as an Interfaith Officiant and in all that I do, is to witness and provide a safe and sacred space for people of all faiths and none, to connect more deeply with these beautiful energies."

Firewalking

"Among many other things, for me the Firewalk has been about expanding my experience, about expanding the vision/dream of who I am and what I’m capable of. It's been about opening my heart to a greater possibility for myself and for the whole planet, it's been about community healing and celebration of life...."

Firewalking
​Certified Sundoor Firewalk Instructor/Empowerment Coach/Trainer

I attended my first Firewalk in 2007 and was forever changed by it. I experienced a major shift in the way she saw myself and the World. I began to question all the self limiting beliefs that, so often, played through my mind. I felt my heart open. I could see so many possibilities for my life. I was present and connected to the Natural World. I felt immersed in the infinite, dancing with the Devine, deeply connected to the Ancient Wisdom of the Ancestors and the Elements. And since then I have danced with the beautiful Fire hundreds of times.. each time holding unique blessings and gifts for me... I believe in the power and importance of Community and Ceremony.. That we are much more than we know.. That we are in fact powerful/magical Creators.. That with heart, intention and focus we are capable of amazing things.. That all life is sacred, precious and connected and that we are continuously offered opportunities to step into our greatest possibility, to embrace our own unique medicine, magic and song.

In 2011 I travelled to California and received my Sundoor Certification (http://sundoor.com/sundoor-school-of-firewalking/firewalk-instructor-certification/ )(from my Firewalk Teacher Peggy Dylan) and officially became a Firewalk Instructor/Empowerment Coach. Since then I have been facilitating Firewalks in Ontario and the East Coast of Canada, with my life partner Jeff Smyth as my Fire Keeper. In 2015 Jeff and I travelled to California once again where he received his Sundoor Certification (from Peggy Dylan) as a Firewalk Instructor as well. And I took Peggy's (Sundoor) Sakahan Training and became a Certified Sundoor Trainer. 

What People are Saying

"its days later, much like a daze... and I still... I am digesting.... I am accepting... I am feeling and honoured and blessed and blooming... all because. ~ You showed us how. YOU.. You called us here. we came... because YOU shared the way. I thank you. From the depths of my soul. This was, a beginning to live for me."
​~ Amy Eggleton Barlow

"With the greatest love and care, Lori Folkins is able to create at her Firewalk, a sacred space wherein you can feel embraced by a special and unique moment in time that serves you in your highest need to connect with Spirit and push through the barriers of limitation that are both literally and symbolically done so as you take your first steps across the bed of hot coals. Because of her passionate heartfelt dedication to the development of each participants personal journey and their commitment to uphold their own personal transformation to the highest, Lori is able to achieve miraculous results of inner releasing, cleansing and spiritual transmutation of which I have both witnessed and have experienced first hand. I cannot express deeply enough my gratitude for the shifts and changes that have appeared within my life since participating in her Firewalk. I can only urge those of you who are looking to transcend the limitations that so frustratingly appear over and over again in your life to seek Lori out and allow the Light & Love that she pours into each Firewalk, to change you as it has so greatly changed me and so many others.  Thank you, Lori and Namaste."
~ Timothy Moran Owner/Operator Heart Of Shamballa ​

"Among many other things, for me the Firewalk has been about expanding my experience and awakening my sense of wonder. It’s been about working with my fear and courageously stepping into the unknown. It’s been about trusting my own inner wisdom and surrendering more deeply to the flow of life. And from my experience, whether you walk or simply witness others walking on the FIRE you will experience exactly what is needed for your own sacred and personal journey." - Lorriiii Dragon Dream

Body Wisdom

​"The body has a natural intelligence, knowledge and wisdom that is constantly speaking to us through our intuition and senses.  It was born with us and is our loyal and sacred companion throughout our whole lives.  Our bodies are our first line of defence and since our bodies are made up of the elements when we heal and honour our bodies, we also heal and honour Mother Earth." ~ Lorriiii Dragon Dream

​Connecting to Your Centre ~ A Centring Meditation

An adapted meditation from Marlena Field the founder of Body Centred Coaching https://www.bodymindspiritcoaching.com/marlena-field-founder.html
adapted by and recorded by Lorriiii Dragon Dream

What People are Saying

"Body Centred Coaching with Lori allowed me to explore, find and heal specific things about myself in a truly unique way. Her approach and techniques guided me through work that was deeply personal and ultimately life changing. The results for me were subtle yet direct and significant. She helped me to doubt and fear less and to look forward to new challenges with a renewed sense of optimism in all aspects of my life. Lori has a keen intuitive sense and wisdom about her. Her sessions offer a powerful opportunity to get right to the core of what is affecting your energy with the potential to change it permanently for the better. I recommend anyone looking for positive change in their energy and life to engage Lori in a Body Centred Coaching session."

Yoga & Meditation

I was eight years old when my Mother introduced me to Yoga and Meditation, and I have been practicing Yoga and Meditation on and off for my whole life since then. And I have been meditating daily for the past 10 plus years. In June, 2019 I completed a 200 hour Yoga Teacher Training at the Yoga Centre of Niagara (http://yogacentreniagara.com/).

Although, I have experienced many benefits from my Yoga/Meditation practice, (such as; deeper self realization and awareness, breath awareness, increased focus, increased patience, increased compassion, better listening skills, better sleep, stress relief, relaxation, clearing and calming of the mind, mind clarity, anxiety relief, detachment, physical strength & flexibility, as well as over all good physical/mental health), my primary goal in both Yoga & Meditation has always been to connect more deeply with the present moment. To increase my ability to truly be with my every experience & interaction, to feel my connection with the Trees, the Earth and all of Nature, to feel my oneness with life, to tap into my own inner recourse and wisdom, to connect with and become more aware of my body, and to continue to grow both personally and spiritually so that I can better serve the world with who I am.
​
I love the words from the Chandogya-Upanishad (7.6.1) which read:
“Meditation (dhyana), assuredly, is more than thought. The Earth Meditates, as it were (iva). The atmosphere meditates, as it were. Heaven meditates, as it were. The waters meditate, as it were. Mountains meditate, as it were. Gods and men meditate, as it were. Hence those among men here who attain greatness – they are, as it were, a part of the estate of meditation.”

Which to me, speaks to the connection between Meditation and Nature. That in meditation, we naturally become like the Trees, the Stones, the Mountains, the Sky, the Earth and all of Nature, still and present.

During my first shamanic journey I saw myself in Ireland, dancing with Brigid and the Dragons (at that point in my life, I had never been to Ireland and I had no intention of going there) and during my second shamanic Journey I saw myself sitting in Lotus with an Indian Hindu Temple behind me and a bridge crossing an old part of The Welland Ship Canal, in Niagara Region, Ontario, Canada, in front of me. Since then, I feel that I have danced with Brigid and the Dragons in Ireland many times and I feel that by further incorporating Yoga and Meditation into my daily healing practice/ceremony is at least in part, fulfilling my destiny and the fruition of my second Shamanic Journey.

Love and Gratitude to the Waters

Picture

​I have more than 31 years of Electrical/Hydroelectric Operating experience working with various Electrical Transmission/Distribution/Generation/Water Management Companies in Ontario and I am deeply honoured to be the first woman to have held the position of River Control Supervisor at Ontario Power Generation/New York Power Authority's International Control Dam where I worked very closely with the Niagara River, predicting flows, managing the Niagara River and Niagara Falls. From my view just above Niagara Falls, my first priority, as a River Control Supervisor, was always maintaining the natural beauty of the River and the Falls and I am truly humbled by my role as Steward of the River. And although I officially retired from this role in 2021, I will always carry in my heart, my experience with the beautiful River and the Thunder Energy of Niagara Falls.

Awakening Courage

"I believe that courage is one of our most valuable tools and that as we awaken to our own courage, we also awaken to our true power. In courage, we awaken our hearts and are more able to freely step into the flow of infinite possibility, more able to fully embody our creative life purpose." ~ Lorriiii White Wolf Mother

What Participants are Saying:
"This year long experience has enhanced my life in astounding ways this past year. Thank you, from the bottom of my heart and soul, to our leaders, Brenda & Lori, for creating such an amazing program. The entire program was professional, intriguing and personal." ~ Jude Steeves re A Year Long Journey Around the Celtic Wheel Program.


"I think that this has taught me to believe that every tree and animal and water and earth have a story that is worthy to be heard and shared. That every encounter with nature is meant to stir up and nourish my soul and meant to be honoured." Anita "Sparklinglight Weaver Woman" re. A Year Long Journey Around the Celtic Wheel Program


​"Thank you so much, Lori and Brenda, for the magnificent leadership, the dedication and the hours of work and for the open hearted sincerity. The beauty of your souls, which has shined through it all and that I have experienced from you both on this Journey Around the Celtic Wheel, has been so meaningful. I hope that the many blessings that you’ve given me and each of us in this circle will continue to grow and flow in the years to come." ~ Eliza S re. A Year Long Journey around the Celtic Wheel Program.


​
"Our time together and the teachings remind me of the deep connection we have to all of these things, that we are all of one breath and spark across time and space. I was brought here to JAtCW to be reminded, to remember, to understand that some of us who walk the Earth at this time are here as messengers and guides, teachers and healers; we embody Service - if we allow it." Tracy Kennedy "Fibi of the Dancing Light" re A Year Long Journey Around the Celtic Wheel Program.


​
"I light candles, send much love and Healing, drum and connect with nature. I am finally living My Path in Life. That of a Healer and a Guide for All that have loved and Lost.I  I have never felt so Much Peace and Love Ever in My Life. This is All Thanks to All of You Who I Love Very much! Especially Lori and Brenda who have connected us in a way that I'm sure none of us could  ever imagine. How Grateful I am! I have found my way home to a Loving Clan and I am so Proud,Grateful to belong to Our Clan! Life may be uncertain and scary right now but it is so Beautiful!!!" Michelle "She Who Cries Into the Wind" re. A Year Long Journey Around the Celtic Wheel Program.



"As the Celtic Wheel journey reminds me of the cycle of seasons, I thoroughly enjoy the chance to share it with others.  At this time of upcoming Lughnassadh I take time to enjoy the beauty of my garden, seeing the bounty of the Goddess and my contributing hard work.  Now I rest in preparation for the work of the harvest.  And I recognize that I will also harvest the bounty of the seeds I have sown in myself through meditation, intention, and our circles." Denise Foglein re. A Year Long Journey Around the Celtic Wheel Program.

​
"Deep gratitude for the Tree-mend-ous effort you (Brenda and Lori) put into this program. I believe this was a service to humanity, in a time of confinement as a pandemic strategy.  Service to Mother Earth, service to the Cosmos and to the Great Spirit.  Any and all that we could and can do to keep the live juices flowing, to be creative, to sing and laugh, or cry and commiserate. And you facilitated so much for us, for it. With love flowing on into the next yearly cycle,
Your Soul Brother, David ~ re A Year Long Journey Around the Celtic Wheel Program.

​"I have gotten to experience the workings of Loriii! I have attended a Celtic retreat and my first Moving Mandala just this fall in New Brunswick. May I stress the word first as in my heart I believe there will be more I attend. On that note Lori has a soft and gentle nature while teaching. She also carries the structure and discipline to keep on course. The gifts with in Myself that I came home with after attending both events I personally can not find the words to quite explain. The changes are subtle but far reaching. Every time I release a piece of baggage it makes me very proud to know I release it for my ancestors also. I came home and looked into my sons eyes and thought and felt how I am releasing these things so my son doesn’t have to play this part out. The work done at these shops will last longer than your physical body. I highly recommend attending any workshop being facilitated by Lori or her brothers and sisters. They are well trained in what they are doing on their paths." ~  Blessings Brittany Frost, Westport, NS

"I have participated in Moving Mandalas as well as attending a pilgrimage (to Ireland) with Lori. I found I was provided a space where I was able to dive deep and see myself in new ways. Both experiences allowed me to explore my truth and step into a new part of who I am. They were a very important part of my Journey." K B

"yes indeed!! words do not give justice to all that we have experienced together this weekend!! BIG thank you all for being you.. yeay to mandala sisterhood!!! and yes are you ready??! hey yayayayayaya wowowowowo..." ~ Mirain A

"Loriiii brings the group to presence, by the example of her divine self. She has an ability to bring the group, no matter the size to oneness, unity, spiritual connectedness and love." ~ A. D.

"I have known Lori for more than six years. We met over the love of animals. She was kind, caring, and always very spiritual. I wondered how she stayed that way in these crazy times.
I confided in Lori about an incident that left me very upset. I wasn't sure how to handle it. She listened patiently and then asked me if I would like to drum with her and a few others. The night I went to drumming, I was very nervous and I really didn't have a clue what was going to happen. I wasn't pressured to do anything. That night changed my life forever. I felt free, calmer and had inner peace for the first time in a very long time. I didn't realize at the time I was grounded. I could handle my problem, in a positive way. It wasn't a one time fix but, what a great beginning, to a new me.
Every time I can drum, participated in a Moving Mandala and/or fire walk, I do. I become a stronger, more spiritual and positive person. At peace with the world and more importantly at peace with myself.
Thank you Lori for showing me the way.
Love Forever,"

"With the greatest love and care, Lori Folkins is able to create at her Firewalk, a sacred space wherein you can feel embraced by a special and unique moment in time that serves you in your highest need to connect with Spirit and push through the barriers of limitation that are both literally and symbolically done so as you take your first steps across the bed of hot coals. Because of her passionate heartfelt dedication to the development of each participants personal journey and their commitment to uphold their own personal transformation to the highest, Lori is able to achieve miraculous results of inner releasing, cleansing and spiritual transmutation of which I have both witnessed and have experienced first hand.

Thank you, Lori and Namaste." Timothy M

“The first time I met Lori was at a spiritual gathering, that I had attended by myself. During a workshop she commented ‘Sometimes you are the dreamer and sometimes you are the dream.’ The truth of that statement struck me and I had to thank her. She told me it was a song and she proceeded to sing it to me. She has sang to me quite a few times since then and has even sent me messages of songs. She is a kind and gentle soul who immediately puts you at ease. Lori is a gift to everyone she meets. I am thankful for her friendship, her messages, her drum circles, her fire walks and all that she offers the world.” ~Kathy Upper -Chief Visionary, Spiritual Niagara

"Thank you Lori for your guidance and inspiration of such a magical circle last night. Its hard to find the right words so I am going to steal some of them from my friend, Gisele, from The Barber's Daughter who wrote them on one of her magical rings that she creates. I have adapted them You guide us to "find inspiration and meaning, soaked in the wonders of " spirit and our ancestors, "cradled in compassion of the heart and you hold a will" for us all "to make a difference".

"Once returned to "reality", it's much noticeable how a workshop like this is so extraordinary.
So much great experiences, meetings, and gathering with souls like mine. It's always a chance and an opportunity to grown emotional and spiritually to grab it and immurge oneself into a workshop like this."

Journeying's the best medicine !!
It worths the nine hours drive from Quebec, I can tell you that
excuse my english, I'm more of a french speaking person !"

"I have participated in Moving Mandalas as well as attending a pilgrimage (to Ireland) with Lori. I found I was provided a space where I was able to dive deep and see myself in new ways. Both experiences allowed me to explore my truth and step into a new part of who I am. They were a very important part of my Journey." K B

Loriiii brings the group to presence, by the example of her divine self. She has an ability to bring the group, no matter the size to oneness, unity, spiritual connectedness and love. A.D.

Lori’s humility, dedication, wisdom, courage, honesty, and generosity boil down into that healing kind of love that inspires and motivates. J.D.

"Thanks for another awesome circle and for bringing all the beautiful souls together. Truly Blessed" R.C.


Truly and from my heart, I can say that every experience I’ve had with Lori has been wonderfully revealing. Her intuitive guidance, whether in group events or one on one sessions has been valuable for me each and every time. I’ve been fortunate to enjoy drum circles, fire walks, individual coaching sessions and more. And perhaps because I was open enough to the spiritual aspect of change, found them to be as much or more than I had expected. I am happy to have benefited in healing ways as well as ways that have altered my perception of what life is and can be. I absolutely look forward to future events and coaching. I encourage others who are open to positive change to seek Lori out through one of her events or to access her energy and wisdom in what ever way is mutually agreeable.

"This year long experience has enhanced my life in astounding ways this past year. Thank you, from the bottom of my hear and soul, to our leaders, Brenda & Lori, for creating such an amazing program. The entire program was professional, intriguing and personal" ~ Jude Steeves re 2021 Journey Around the Celtic Wheel.


Thank you so much, Lori and Brenda, for the magnificent leadership, the dedication and the hours of work and for the open hearted sincerity. The beauty of your souls, which shined through it all and that I experienced from you both on this Journey Around the Celtic Wheel, has been so meaningful. I hope that the many blessings that you’ve given me and each of us in this circle will continue to grow and flow in the years to come. Eliza S re. 2021 Journey around the Celtic Wheel.
