3. Drumming in Creativity, Self-Expression and Play Workshop
In this experiential, interactive, and hands-on workshop, you will learn basic hand drumming techniques, World rhythms and songs, develop improvisation skills, and build confidence playing in a group.
Experience the interconnection between drumming and other art forms such as movement, voice, and visual art. Engage in fun rhythm based warm-ups, cooperative rhythm games, and facilitated music-making, while at the same time increasing group cohesion, releasing stress, developing listening and communication skills, and deepening connections with group members.
Through arts-based reflection and group discussions, you will have opportunities to explore how the music-making process relates to your self, to others, and to community. Experience the therapeutic value of drumming, creativity, and play. Emphasis is placed on the process of music and art making rather than on a final product. No previous drumming or artistic experience is necessary and drums are provided.
