A mother drum, about 15 assorted types of hand drums, and a variety of shakers and rattles will be provided. Please bring your own drum or percussion instrument if you have one. No prior experience is necessary to participate in a drum circle, so let’s get together for a healthy, fun, and positive experience!!
Douglas Blue Feather has been a drummer for 60 years and has been facilitating drum circles for over 30 years. Drum circles offer significant physical and mental health benefits by lowering stress and anxiety, boosting the immune system, and reducing chronic pain through rhythmic physical movement. Participants experience increased feelings of well-being, energy, and self-expression, along with enhanced social connection and a sense of community. These drumming sessions promote mindfulness, synchronized brain activity, and the release of endorphins, the body's natural painkillers, while also providing a safe space for emotional expression.
"I will start each drum circle with a short 5-minute meditation to relax the mind and center the body along with a slow heart beat rhythm on the mother drum. Drumming is a physical activity, so next we will do a few minutes of simple stretches to loosen up the muscles in the fingers, hands, wrists, arms, shoulders, and neck to prepare for the drumming to start. The first round will consist of a relaxed tempo for approximately 25-30 minutes, followed by a 10-minute break, and a second round of a slightly faster tempo lasting approximately 15-20 minutes. Handouts that I can provide to participants:"
Come heal, learn, and grow with us.
