Drum Circle

The drum is a musical instrument transformed into a healing tool. Drumming is a return to wholeness. It helps humanity maintain its innate connection to the rhythms of nature. Your body has natural rhythms such as the rhythm of your heartbeat, your circadian rhythm, which is sleeping and waking, the rhythm of your breathing, rhythms of brain waves, and hormonal rhythms. Your immune system loves a good beat. Drumming is about self-expression, relaxation, spirituality, quality of life and healing.
You don't need any drumming experience. Drums will be available for you to use or you can bring your own. The philosophy of drumming is about connecting to the beat within you. Healing, like rhythm, comes from within you.
Daniel Ide is an experienced drummer and a great drum circle facilitator. He has a great understanding of the drum and different sounds that you can get depending on the type and how you hit it.
Above is a picture of a drum circle group. Our group meets in a wood paneled room with wood floors. If you just sit while the others are drumming and put your hands on the top of the drum then you can feel the vibrations go through your hands and feet. It is amazing!
