Rhythm for Our Soul – Drumming Circle

Get ready to groove with “Rhythm for Our Soul – Drumming Circle”! It all started with the Mother’s heartbeat, and guess what? We’re still vibing to that rhythm. Join in for a drumming session that’ll make your soul dance!

Tammi’s the guide to the ancient beats, helping you channel those traditional rhythms and giving you the green light to let your soul’s beats break free. Did you know drums have notes too? Dive into the world of the three traditional notes, get the lowdown on the instrument’s history and culture. Let loose with your own rhythms, pick up some traditional (and maybe a bit of non-traditional) songs, bust out some moves, and, most importantly, have a blast!

Please let us know ahead of time if you need a djembe drum.

WHAT TO BRING: Wear comfortable clothing, bring your water bottle, and get ready to rock! If you have a djembe, bring it, but if not, please let us know to bring one for you. When we play drums, we will remove rings and large items around your wrists (bulky bracelets or watches).
