The Benefits of African Drumming

Inclusivity
Our workshops break down age, social and gender barriers. It's a fun and accessible activity that everyone is drawn to and anyone can do.

Encouraging personal development
Anyone can beat on a drum, giving participants a great sense of competence, which in turn enhances self-esteem.

Stress Release
The physical benefits leave the body feeling invigorated but relaxed. At the same time a meditative experience is had which helps clear the mind of everyday stress and leaves the individual receptive to new ideas and challenges.

Promoting cooperation rather than competition
As an effective communication tool, drumming helps people realise their own contribution to the group. It highlights that everyone's input, no matter how small, can make a marked difference to the success of a group.

Celebrating group success and synergy
By playing rhythms together as an ensemble, groups develop a powerful synergy and sense of unity.

Increasing immediate and sustained general well-being, happiness and energy levels
Drumming enables the participant to disengage from mental activity and brings participants 100% into the present moment, which gives a great deal of relief from mental stress and allows better focus and clarity.

Building team bonds and confidence
Motivation will increase through sharing creativity and listening to one another. Confidence in ones self and in each other is strengthened which heightens trust and mutual respect.
