One of a kind Your World Drum Circle Programs

Drumming and the Mind

Would you like to find out why the sound of a heartbeat relaxes us while an upbeat song leaves us feeling energized?

The special 90 minute half lecture/half drumming program will answer that question and many more. Join us in an interactive program that will lead you through a rhythmic adventure into the relationship between rhythm and it’s effect on the mind. Look back at how rhythm was used throughout history as a tool to alter consciousness and how it can be used today to reduce stress and raise immune system function.

This program was featured as part of the award-winning Glen Cove Senior Center continuing education program. Perfect for libraries and senior centers and other high-functioning populations.
