The resource links to individuals on this website list only people that I know to be grounded in a solid tradition or indigenous lineage, and to be doing high quality work. They are not playing Indian and they are not fly by night new agers….but compassionate and gifted individuals called by Spirit to do important work that is much needed in the Land of Eagle, and they do it well. Happy Surfing!
