“Not about perfection, but about participation”
Drum circles is a gathering of people from all walks of the community, where drums and percussion instruments are used for music making! We encourage our participants to express their inner rhythm spirits and their musicality through our rhythm-based events. You cannot play a wrong note! No music experience or lessons are required prior to participating in a drum circle, making this type of workshop a fantastic addition to corporate functions and school events.
Team Family Community
Rhythm is all around us. Create lasting musical moments with your team, you family and your community. Discover the joy of drumming and the excitement of creating spontaneous music with each other. Our rhythm-based events are family-friendly, and we are confident that you will leave our circles smiling and wishing for more!
“...so inclusive, so joyful and so much fun”

“Building community through rhythm”
Drum circles and rhythm-based events are for everyone. All ages, genders, race and participants from various socio-economic background are welcomed to participate in drum circle events. Formal music lessons and previous experience in music ensembles is not a prerequisite for participation. Social barriers often melted away as the session progresses. Participants from vastly different backgrounds unite as one to form a well-orchestrated percussion ensemble.
An event for everyone
“Everyone contributes in their own way”
Drums and percussion instruments from around the world are used in our drum circles. The diverse sound created from the circle represents our society, where everyone has their own voice and contributes in their own way.
Drumming has an extremely low barrier of entry, making it accessible for most, including participants with dis/abilities.
