Pam Mortensen
Pamela Mortensen has been a life-long musician. After exploring keyboards and digital synthesis for many years, she was inspired to take up didgeridoo in 2005 by Aboriginal artist David Hudson. Since then, she has performed, taught workshops and lessons, and started making her own instruments.
In performance, she weaves a combination of Middle Eastern and Eastern European rhythms with urban beats and ambient sounds of this “organic synthesizer” that takes audiences on a journey through imagined soundscapes.
Her passion and enthusiasm for this ancient instrument are infectious and her teaching style breaks down technique into more manageable bits to allow students to absorb the material.
She enjoys working with students and presents a fun and light approach that encourages exploration of each student's potential.

Rona Yellow Robe
Rona Yellow Robe will be teaching the “Beginners” workshop this year. She
will be under the guidance of her own experience of 10 years of learning
and playing and still learning, as well as by John Vames' guide, The
Native American Flute, Understanding the Gift. Those who would like to
take on this workshop will have a very gentle, fun-loving experience as you
learn Finger Control, Breath Control, Knowing your flute, Basic Notes, and
Embellishments such as tonguing and slurring, and much more.
I am looking forward to meeting my students with song, and being a part of
the Zion Canyon Flute School. It means a lot to me to pass on the gifts
that have been passed on to me by teachers that I hold with highest honor
and respect.
