Facilitated drum circle definition:
The word facilitate means to ‘make easy’. Drums and/or percussion are handed out or already in place, and people come not to 'learn to drum' but to have fun playing together and to create a drum song. The facilitator incorporates musical interventions to help the group become unified musically. The quality of the music that is made is less on the expertise of the players and more on the quality of the relationship with each other in that musical event.
Why drum?
- Its fun, a real natural high
- Its easy, everyone can do it and it makes people feel good about themselves
- It brings people together in celebration transending all boundaries of race, religion, age, gender, social position.
- It makes you feel energised
- It fuels creativitiy and the imagination
- It clears all thoughts and stress away
