Drum Circle

Group drumming is something everyone can do regardless of drumming or musical experience, it's about enjoying ourselves in rhythm together! All are welcome, even if you've never touched a drum before in your life! "If you have a heartbeat, you can drum!"

The Bamana people of Mali in West Africa are cited as being the creators of the Djembe drum. Djembe translates as "everyone gather together in peace" which is what we do at our drumming circles, discovering the joys of creative expression, the sense of connection of playing in a group whilst finding our own natural rhythm that is inside each one of us.

Research into the health benefits of rhythmic drumming have shown to be physical, mental, emotional and spiritual. It brings people together, improving listening and communication skills, communicating without words, improves confidence. It allows for creative self-expression and the joy of improvisation.
