Drum Circles
It is a remarkable tool used to place oneself in the here and now. Simply put, a drum circle is when a group of people gather, sitting on chairs, each with a drum and are all arranged in a circle experiencing the spontaneous creation of music. In such a situation each person is allowed the opportunity to express themselves through their individual instrument while simultaneously participating as part of a larger whole. Drum circles have no beginning or end, top or bottom. Such a construction places every participant
on equal footing, a very important component in a therapeutic situation. I, as a facilitator, would guide and encourage the participants, hence promoting a safe, stress free, entertaining and fun environment
to empower participants. As the participants relax, enjoy and explore the music, their natural creativity and curiosity emerges and the rhythms grow and change.
