Description

Join us for a day of community healing. You can bring your drum or use one of ours. Experience the healing benefits of the drum. African hand drums communicate, celebrate, mourn and inspire. They're played in times of peace and war, planting and harvesting, birth and death. Drums have been a large part of Africans' daily experience for so long that drumming pulses throughout their collective unconscious. It's in their genes. Drum circles integrates mind, body, and spirit and create a fun, supportive, and safe environments. The focus is on the whole body. Integrates the physical and spiritual and releases negative feelings. Drumming can positively affect your health and may help with many conditions from stress, fatigue, and anxiety to hypertension, stroke, asthma, chronic pain, arthritis, mental illness, addiction, and even cancer. Drumming is good for you. It makes you happy.
