You can shamanize at home!
While it would be wonderful to shamanize together, there is no need to wait until you can travel to study with a shamanic practitioner.  It is wonderful to be able to sit with a teacher, but Quynn understands that it is not always possible.  The most important messages always come from one’s spirit world and now you can experience shamanic workshops in mp3 format, so you can practice at home!

The Institute for the Shamanic Arts
is a learning-based community based in Tucson, Arizona.  Through continuing classes, experiential workshops and artistic performances, each participant is encouraged to remember their shamanic ancestry and learn how to utilize their abilities in the modern world. 

"Shamanic journeying with Quynn has been a powerful experience for me. I have gotten in touch with animal guides and answers to questions about current issues in my life, sometimes through images and sometimes through words. Quynn holds the space in a masterful way and it always feels totally safe. I feel free to express whatever comes." Susan in Tucson

What are We?
The Institute for the Shamanic Arts was founded by modern shamanic intuitive Quynn Elizabeth Fynn in 1998. Its' purpose is to seek out and train individuals who want to improve their natural abilities in the shamanic arts* and to educate the public about the shamanic arts, their usefulness to individuals as well as their benefits to the community. This education happens through classes, performances, lectures, and adventures in Nature.

*The shamanic arts explore modern applications and benefits (emotional, mental, physical and spiritual) of consciously voyaging into the wilderness of one's mind for the purposes of healing, increasing communication skills and inspiring art.

"I feel more connected with the Universe than ever before! And I know that this is just the beginning of my quest. I can see now how important it is for every person to learn how to communicate with their inner world. Thank you for showing me how!!!" Alan, Computer Programmer

The Institute for the Shamanic Arts offers a series of beginning classes, as well as circles, classes and workshops which focus on various aspects of the modern shamanic arts (for detailed workshop schedule, go to "Class Schedule").

What to Expect?
If you are looking to find a place to study, The Institute for the Shamanic Arts might be a place for you, however, you should know what to expect.

Housing: The Institute does not have living facilities for students, nor does it provide housing assistance. If you feel called to come to Tucson for this purpose, either for a visit, or for an extended stay, do your research and be prepared. If you would like ideas about housing/visiting possiblities, email quynnfynn@hotmail.com

Study Style: If you are looking for instruction about particular cultural styles of shamanizing, ISA is not the place for you. Quynn does not teach any particular culture's approach, and she does not teach that 'her' ways are the only or best ways. Quynn shares shamanic tools that seem to run through all culture’s approaches.  The most important thing is that each student listen within to find their own way to shamanize.

"What a magical environment, right in the heart of Tucson. Your location (the beautiful WomanKraft Castle) reminds me of a Harry Potter House, created by women! A perfect setting for the shamanic arts" Billie, Consultant

Where are We, When?
Between October and April, The Institute for the Shamanic Arts is located at the WomanKraft Art Center in Tucson,AZ.  WomanKraft, a Non Profit Arts Organization, was founded in 1974 to claim, validate, and empower women artists and other under represented groups. It is a perfect home for the magical realm of the shamanic artist and poet. Quynn is pleased to be a part of WomanKraft's inspiring endeavor.
 When May comes, The Institute for the Shamanic Arts goes on the road. Quynn breaks camp in Tucson and migrates North for the summer, offering Nature/Art workshops and ritual events in places of cultural significance and natural beauty around the Western United States.

Cost of Classes
The Institute for the Shamanic Arts occasionally hosts classes taught by a few different instructors, however, most classes are taught/facilitated by founder Quynn Elizabeth. All offerings by Quynn are offered by Spirit Guided Tuition*. This means you ask within to know what payment you are to offer.  This payment structure ensures that anyone who is interested in attending classes can do so.

*For the classes offered by Spirit Guided Tuition, if you are unsure about what to give, take note of prices for comparable services and ask within. You will come up with the perfect tuition.

Payment can be made by session, class, or on a monthly basis.

“Directly due to that very first journey with Quynn, I have since then felt an interconnectedness with my human and divine selves, I have, since then, understood that there is a spiritual connection between myself and all of humanity.
Quynn, the shamana-woman, welcomed my presence and encouraged my very being to soar. I could not have believed that a life could be so changed, but it happened to me.”
E. Higginbotham
