The mission of Last Mask Center is three-fold. The first is to offer a high quality shamanic
healing from an initiated shaman and the necessary integration of these often
chaotic/cathartic experiences. The second is to teach the new "life skills" necessary for you
to live in a way that honors and celebrates the wholeness and integrity of your soul in a
culture that doesn't. The third is to offer community healing rituals to heal the types of
wounds and illness that cannot be healed one-on-one, in any modality.

"The important thing is this: to be ready at any moment to sacrifice what you are for
what you could become." Charles Dubois

Shamanic healer, teacher, and author, Christina Pratt, opened the Last Mask Center for
Shamanic Healing in New York in 1990. She has been serving clients on both coasts since
then, opening the Center in Portland in 2001. Pratt, a teacher of exceptional clarity, humor,
and inspiration, has taught at The Omega Institute, Rowe Center, Hollyhock, Breitenbush
Hot Springs, and Sleeping Lady Retreat Center in addition to the workshops produced by
Last Mask Center. She is a frequent and honored speaker for the American Holistic Medical
Association and local salons. Pratt's book, An Encyclopedia of Shamanism, will be published
in two volumes by Rosen Publishing Group in 2005.

Pratt's training began in 1986 amid a lifetime
of dance. Her shamanic work is a synthesis
of studies with Ecuadorian, Tibetan, Tamang,
and African shamans, the Foundation for
Shamanic Studies, the Center for Intuitive
Energy Processing, and personal shamanic
experience. Masks of Illusions and the
Authentic Self was first offered in Hawaii in
1992. The Cycle of Transformation has
continued each year since, providing
opportunities for transformation and initiation.

The Last Mask Center offers a wide variety
of individual and community shamanic
healing experiences, workshops and classes.
Ms Pratt is always willing to travel to work
with committed and creative people. If you
are interested in scheduling a shamanic
healing session or registering for a class or
workshop, please call (800) 927-2527

"There is a vitality, a life force, a quickening that is translated through you into action, and
because there is only one of you in all time, the expression is unique...It is not your business
to determine how good it is; not how valuable it is; not how it compares with other
expressions. It is your business to keep it yours, clearly and directly, to keep the channel
open." - Martha Graham

Awaken into the sacred dream the Universe is dreaming of you.
The Cycle opens each individual to transformation, change, and the true calling of the
Authentic Self. The shamans believe that the true calling is the dream the Universe is
dreaming of you. Come learn the skills to let that dream be realized through the actions of
your life.
