What is a Drum Circle? 

A drum circle is a musical gathering. But a drum circle is more than just the instruments and the act of drumming; it is also the shared experience of the participants. The drums and drumming are the vehicles that take the group to its final destination; a place where everyone has a voice and is empowered to use it, and where the creative spirit is shared by everyone in the circle. A drum circle is really a people circle.
Benefits of a drum circle include:
· new opportunities for socializing and making friends;
· an outlet for creativity and a forum for community music making;
· an open door to people who may not otherwise play music;
· a setting for spiritual growth and practice.
· a supportive environment for creative expression;
· opportunities for communication without using words;
· potential for improved physical, emotional and mental conditioning.
