As a tribute to our co-founder, who passed away November 13, 2005, we have assembled The Ingwe Collection.
Ingwe was an incredible storyteller and poet. This collection takes you on a sensory journey to his native home of Kenya where we was a member of the Akamba tribe. In fact, he was the only man of European ancestry to go through the traditional Akamba initiation rites. His stories and poems invoke the deep connection to nature that exists within all of us.
This collection is also an excellent resource to share with young people in your life.
The Ingwe Collection includes…
Folklore & Legends of the Akamba, Volume 1 (cd)
On this wonderful audio compilation, Grammy Award winning musician Victor Wooten lends his heart and his voice to the words of Ingwe's tribal family from Kenya, East Africa. Hear the tales told to Ingwe over many, many nights, beneath stars brilliant and as plentiful as the grains of sand in the Savanna. The glow of the village fires lights up the faces of the children whose eyes sparkle with the reflection of the dancing light - with the mystery of the dancing stories. The love of the elders is present and eternal. Or is it?
Spirit of the Leopard, stories by and narrated by Ingwe (2 cd's)
It is a fantastic and true account of blood brotherhood, mystical leopards and three dimensional visions. These cd’s are filled with the wonder of the African plains, where the elephant trumpeted the dawn, the leopard prowled the moon-lit night, the eagles flew against the blue of the sky, and as Ingwe says "I dreamt dreams that were so real, so vivid, that they were not dreams, they were visions."
We are incredibly fortunate to Ingwe’s own voice telling the story of his vision.
Echoes of Kenya & Other Poems, by Ingwe
Journey with Ingwe to another land and another time. Wilderness Awareness School founder Jon Young writes, "This book is more than poetry. It is a challenge, a test, almost a Rite of Passage into a world unknown today. The words and pages are invitation to remember and to uncover something sacred and treasured in our deepest memories. Perhaps childhood, so many mysteries left unanswered, will come back through the journey of experiencing life through this author's eyes.
