I also facilitate a drum circle wellness program called "Peace of Mind Drumming", learning emotional regulation through hand drumming. This can be as long as 8 sessions or less, with additional ongoing sessions as well.
My drum circle program stems from the Rhythm2Recovery, Beat the Odds and Health Rhythms trainings that I have completed.
Some topics I can address are team building, emotional regulation, mindfulness, collaboration, values, boundaries, grounding and having fun. And I can adapt a drum circle to fit your needs.
