Discover the history and basic techniques and rhythms of the ancient hand-held frame drum with Chelsie Henderson of EarthBeat Music. Frame drums will be provided for all participants, but you are welcome to bring your own if you have one. This program is a four week commitment. Tuesdays 4:00 - 4:45 p.m., January 6, 13, 27, and February 3. No class on January 20. Please register online.
Frame drums are among the world's oldest musical instruments. Drumming today has been scientifically proven to benefit the body and mind by reducing tension, anxiety, depression, and stress; boosting the immune system and increasing energy; helping to control chronic pain; releasing negative feelings and emotional trauma; improving joint mobility and motor skills; and building social interactions and community.
EarthBeat Music strives to cultivate empathic and resilient communities through musical expression and is home to Chelsie's Drum in Joy, Strum in Joy and WomenSing for Peace community music programs.
