The Rhythm Collective

This session is all about exploration and creativity in a relaxed and supportive environment. You’ll have the opportunity to engage with various therapeutic percussion instruments, including frame drums, rainsticks and shakers, even if you’ve never played these instruments before!

Our focus will be on collective rhythm-building rather than perfection.

Full guidance provided. Instruments are provided, you are welcome to bring your own if you have a frame drum.

Previous attendees of this session have enjoyed the opportunity to experience collective sound-making in an easy beginner friendly way, giving them a complete sense of 'switch-off' from busy minds and lives.

We'll start with some simple guidance on how to play the instruments, and then let the magic happen with both guided and unstructured jam sessions where everyone can contribute creatively. It’s about embracing spontaneity, connecting with self and others, and enjoying the process of making music together.

Expect to feel energized, uplifted, as we all dive into the joy of rhythm - no expectations or previous experience required.

This session is not about showcasing talent or skills, but rather about fostering a sense of community and having fun. Come ready to let loose and experience the joy of creating something beautiful as a group. No expectations, just pure creative expression!

Please wear comfortable that allows you to sit sit, stand, move freely (no dancing required but you never know what might happen here!)

What to Bring:

• An open mind and a willingness to try something new
• You may wish to bring a drink with you.
