Looking for a new way to express yourself, beat the stress of day to day life and learn new skills in the process, then this course is definitely for you! This course forms the basis of understanding how to use drums in a therapeutic setting, at this stage we focus on personal growth, nurturing intuition and how to approach the playing of the drums for yourself and family and friends. We look at the different types of drums and how they differ from each other. The course has a strong experience component, during which you will be given the chance to explore the impact of drums on yourself through high quality drum meditations. Our exploration will take us from Shamanic drumming (ancestral drumming) to the newer types of drums such as tongue drums and Rav Vasts. You do not need to own a drum to begin with and may even want to wait until you have gone through the course once to see what you would like to work with, what type of drum resonates with you best at this time.
