Caney Indian Spiritual Circle founder Miguel Sobaoko Koromo Sague (Black Ribs) maintains a small teaching center in the semi-rural Verona suburb of Pittsburgh Pennsylvania. The center includes a traditionally built Taino Indian healing lodge with thatched roof and wooden planked floor. The lodge also serves as the center's Kansi or oniabo gua (sweat lodge). A large healing hamock swings from two tall pine trees and another smaller one is hung inside the healing lodge when it is not serving as a kansi sweat.

The beikes (ceremonial leaders), and boitius (shamans) of the CANEY SPIRITUAL CIRCLE are committed to maintaining a cycle of group spiritual activities to which everyone is welcome for free, no matter what his or her race, ethnicity or religious inclination. (Note that each local Caney Circle has individual attendance requirements according to the local beike. Make sure to contact the local beike to get the specifics of that particular Caney Circle).
Beikes, boitius and other Caney teachers and trainers also offer training and educational services to individuals and small groups. Workshops and seminars are also available all at very reasonable tax-deductible contribution rates.
Beside that, beikes and boitius also minister shamanically to individuals and small groups privately as the need arises. In such cases they will ask only for the necessary tax-deductible donation to compensate for the beike's or boititu's time, material and effort expended in the informational or educational process that is part of any healing, initiation or purification procedure.
Healings and other spiritual or ceremonial services offered to individuals and small groups are free and require the contribution only of the traditional tobacco offering. However some healing and shamanic procedures require that the Caney practitioner impart upon the seeker a certain amount of training and teachings which are done through our educational services component, and for these educatinal services, a tax-exempt contributuion is requested. The healing itself is free.
Call, write or e-mail us to schedule your educational or training presentation, workshop or seminar, or your personal shamanic procedure, reading, healing, or purification.
