About the Artist

Kenneth Cohen is a health and cultural educator, a traditional healer, and scholar of indigenous medicine. He is the recipient of the Alyce and Elmer Green Award for Innovation and Lifetime Achievement in Energy Medicine. Best known for his pioneering work in Chinese healing arts (qigong), he has followed the "Red Road" of Native American wisdom as his personal spiritual path for most of his 60+ years. Ken comes from a multi-cultural and multi-racial background. Though respecting the Judaism of his North African and Russian ancestors, Ken was not brought up within this religion or with knowledge of its customs. Ken was the only apprentice to Cherokee spiritual teacher Keetoowah Christie (great grandson of Ned Christie), during the 1970s and was one of two people comprehensively trained by the esteemed medicine man, Rolling Thunder. He also worked with elders from the Northeast, Northwest, and Northern Plains.

At the Indian Pueblo Store we guarantee that your purchase is an original and authentic work handcrafted by Native American artists as defined by the Indian Arts and Crafts Act of 1990.

Our team of experts carefully inspects every product to guarantee it is handcrafted using traditional, sustainable processes and natural materials of only the highest quality. We record the place and date of each purchase and pride ourselves in paying a fair price that allows artists to make a living practicing their craft.
