Join us as we celebrate the start of our second year in a powerful blend of rhythm and voice! Drumming and singing have deep roots in indigenous and tribal cultures worldwide, serving as ancient methods of community building, healing, and connection to the earth and spirit. In this sacred space, we honor those traditions by creating a sense of unity through rhythm and song.
Our drum circle has grown and evolved over the past year, and we are excited to continue the journey by integrating songs into our experience. As we drum and sing together, we tap into the pulse that has connected communities throughout history, bringing us closer to each other and the earth.

*Be Kind and Inclusive: Embrace a spirit of inclusivity and kindness. Welcome drummers of all skill levels and backgrounds to join the circle. Share the rhythm and the experience in a friendly and welcoming manner.
*Respect Personal Space: When drumming in a group, it's important to respect each other's personal space. Be mindful of your drum's reach and ensure that everyone has enough room to play comfortably.
*Follow Organizers' Instructions: If there are designated organizers or leaders for the drum circle, follow their instructions regarding timing, breaks, and any specific guidelines they provide.
*Respect Cultural Traditions: If there are cultural or traditional elements associated with the drumming, be respectful of them. Avoid appropriating or misusing symbols, rituals, or instruments.
*Pack In, Pack Out: Bring your own instruments and equipment, and make sure to take everything with you when you leave. Leave the area as you found it, or better.
*Emergency Preparedness: Be prepared for changes in weather or unforeseen circumstances. Bring appropriate clothing, water, and any necessary items to ensure your comfort and safety.
*Quiet Hours: If the drum circle occurs during a time when others may be resting nearby, respect quiet hours and keep the volume level appropriate.
*Non-Discrimination: Everyone is welcome regardless of race, gender, age, religion, or background. Maintain an atmosphere of inclusivity and avoid any form of discrimination.
*Focus on Rhythm, Not Competition: Drum circles are about collective harmony, not competition. Encourage cooperation and collaboration rather than trying to outshine others.
*Consent and Boundaries: Always obtain consent before including others in the drum circle or touching their instruments. Respect each person's personal boundaries.
*Leave Egos Behind: Engage with a spirit of humility and a willingness to learn from others. Drumming is a shared experience that transcends individual egos.
