Drum Circle

Workshop Description

Drum Circle
A Drum Circle is a group of people playing hand drums together. Rather than being a performance, drum circles serve as their own end, promoting creative expression, building community, and supporting physical, mental, and spiritual health. For thousands of years, people have used drumming to reduce stress, support the healing process, and build stronger bonds within a community. Drumming doesn’t require expert skills, so it’s a simple and enjoyable group activity that’s available and accessible to anyone. This practice has only recently attracted the attention of science and medicine, which has begun to study its therapeutic effects in both clinical and social contexts. What could be more uplifting than a gathering of people singing, dancing, or having fun while making music? All ancient native, traditional people have their own way of making music together; we come together in this ancient practice, experiencing the benefits by bringing it into our modern world.
