Adam Ade Ola Pascall, fondly called 'Ade', was born and raised in Trinidad, West Indies. Trinidad is the larger of the twin isle republic of Trinidad and Tobago, where traditional orisha worship has survived and is still practiced. Ade has been a committed devotee for over 20 years and his understandings have transcended normal physical, mental and spiritual boundaries. His experiences have led him to create the Ori Bata Technique. |
