We
create and promote fun, hands-on, rhythmic activity for groups of all ages, and
we do so with the intention to inspire, explore and celebrate together.
Welcome to Village Events
Book us for your next event. We bring lots of drums
and hand percussion to your location and create a motivational, fun, and energizing
time for all participants.
Matt
and Charlotte have been drumming and dancing for years. They've taught classes,
facilitated drum circles, and created rhythmic events since 2001. Their passion
for rhythm and dance keeps the circle lively and fun.
Whenever we all gather to share our authentic
expression, and do so with a willingness to listen and cooperate, we will
make beautiful music together.

the joy of music-making with no prior experience. The rhythm invites everyone

Community Drum
Circles are a fun and exciting facilitated experience for the whole family.
It is not unusual to have an age range of 60 years among participants, making
it a powerful way to build community.
Everyone who plays has
something to offer the circle. No prior musical experience is needed and authentic
expression that supports the group is encouraged.
