We have so much to share about the history, the songs,

If you are a curious audience, that is interested in getting deeper and expanding your knowledge,
if you wish to have a glimpse into our tradition, or maybe you would like to know a little more about our work and have some questions to ask –  workshop is the great platform for that.

Yamma’s members conducted numerous workshops in China, the USA, Estonia, Germany, France, Taiwan and wherever there was a curious audience.
