We will be offering faciliated, community drum
circles in our group lesson area.
Haven't heard of a drum circle? A drum circle is
any group of people playing hand-drums and percussion
in a circle. No musical experience is required.
A facilitated drum circle is a drum circle in which
a leader helps to focus the intent and improve the
quality and effect of the drum jam. We will provide
drums and/or percussion, but you are free to bring
your own. This isn't about coming to 'learn to drum'
but simply to have fun playing together.
The facilitator guides and encourages the participants
to create exciting in-the-moment music. The focus
is on the connection and communication between the
participants.
Some key principles of drum circles:
- There is no audience - Everyone is part of the
musical experience
- There is no rehearsal - The music ... is improvised
in the moment
- There is no right or wrong - The Drum Circle
is a safe, permissive explorational environment
- There is no teacher - Instead, the drumcircle
is led by a facilitator who has the dual focus:
to build musicality of the group while also building
the sense of community and connection.
