A drum circle is
more than a
composition, and
not a competition.

A drum circle is
a rhythmic and
musical conversation.
In this conversation,
everyone is equal.

Beginners connect
easily with master
percussionists.

Moms and dads
and kids and seniors
all speak the same language
in this conversation.

What
A drum circle
is one hundred people
who live in the same town
or fifty people who work together
or five people who live next to each other.

A drum circle is made up of people
who live together or work together
and want to play nice together!

A drum circle is people
discovering a common base
through rhythm.

The rhythm of the circle
celebrates the spirit of the community.

And . . .
a drum circle is always fun!

A drum circle consists
of a group of people
playing drums & other
percussion instruments.  

The group usually stands or
sits together - you guessed

language of rhythm removes
barriers, builds trust and
creates a renewed sense of
spirit and community.
