Drum Circle Fun Facts: Join us tonight.
"Typically, people gather to drum in drum "circles" with others from the surrounding community. The drum circle offers equality because there is no
head or tail. It includes people of all ages. The main objective is to share rhythm and get in tune with each other and themselves. To form a group consciousness. To entrain and resonate. By entrainment, I mean that a new voice, a collective
voice, emerges from the group as they drum together."

Fun Facts:
"Everything that exists in time has a rhythm and a pattern. Our bodies are
multi-dimensional rhythm machines with everything pulsing in synchrony, from the digesting activity of our intestines to the firing of neurons in the brain.
Within the body the main beat is laid down by the cardiovascular system, the heart and the lungs. The heart beats between sixty and eighty times per minute and the lungs fill and empty at about a quarter of that speed, all of which occurs
at an unconscious level. As we age, however, these rhythms can fall out of synch. And then, suddenly, there is no more important or crucial issue than
regaining that lost rhythm. Drum circles - a new medicine for a new culture. It was a good idea 10,000 years ago, and it is a good idea today."
