Why experience a drum circle? Improvisational drum circles are what I like to refer to as sonic yoga. Meaning it is an excellent presence practice while in a dynamic “flow state”. Another way of looking at it is “fun mediation” which can even include dance. My creative / life journey depends on keeping the system (body, mind & spirit) calibrated, and in harmony – fluid not calcified. We all know what it feels like to feel physically and mentally stiff, and tense, with negative energy built up in the system. For me, the improvisational drum circle experience is one of the great therapeutic activities and what’s amazing is that it requires no experience or musicality at all. If you have a heartbeat, the pulse within is all you need.
