A drum circle consists of a gathering of people who have come together with a shared intention, facilitated through the use of percussive instruments. The number of participants – as well as the details of style, leadership and duration of play – vary from gathering to gathering. The thread that connects these circles is the existence of a common goal, such as beating out a prayer for world harmony and healing, or a simple communication of joy.

If you’re ready to explore your own rhythmic desires, but concerned about your capacity for rhythm, remember this: neither formal percussion training or specific musical talent are required.
