Drumming is worldwide. Many cultures have drums and drum beats according to their connection to the land. Terri’s approach to drumming begins with a story. What is a drum and what elements of Mother Earth is it made from? Basic drum beats, patterns and breathing are then discussed. As this is a beginner’s session, basic songs, nursery rhymes, chants, lullabies are encouraged to be brought to the drumming circle. The intent is to have one feel comfortable holding a drum and feeling its medicine.
