The Drum Circle is designed for the intent of communicating one’s feelings through music. Its outdoor setting is significant because nature is known to improve health and mood. During these Drum Circle sessions, guests who sign up are each given a Djembe Drum to play. A therapist running the session guides guests by allowing each participant to create a rhythm that represents their current emotions. Once everyone else in the group learns the rhythm, the guests collectively play it as a way of signifying that the individual who created it is supported. Throughout each session, there are other drum exercises, as well as a speaking component.
