Drum Circle/Therapy
Class | Available
Studies have shown that even a brief drumming session can double alpha brain wave activity, dramatically reducing stress and producing feelings of euphoria and well-being. These classes will tap into some of the many wonders and benefits of drumming (hands-on). In our circle we will be building and exploring many rhythms. We will be playing many different types of Latin percussion and hand drums, along with sharing a story or two as we relax our minds, bodies and souls.
