Interactive Drumming is a cutting edge team building tool for corporations worldwide. Some of the benefits we have helped our clients achieve include:
Company Bonding & Unity: Taking the concept of a band or an orchestra, our facilitation sees each individual or group playing their unique part, yet working in harmony together to create a fantastic musical piece. This gives delegates a tangible understanding of working together as a team. It becomes evident in the drum circle that the whole truly is greater than the sum of the parts.
Promoting Cooperative Success: Our session facilitation highlights the learning of a new skill, and embracement of change as the session evolves. Participants learn to listen to each other and work in a cooperative rather than competitive manner. It is a way to feel the power of interdependent working relationships, and leaves the group feeling a sense of belonging.
Leadership: Through self directed team work brave leaders are encouraged to orchestrate their own soundscape. A relaxed yet powerful forum is created where leaders must not only delegate rhythms, but also coordinate members while actively engaging groups for additional performance components. Drum Circle Events tailors truly unique leadership activities to your needs.
Enhanced Focus & Reenergizing: The act of drumming sees the left and right brain engaged at the same time, which stimulates analytical and creative thought processes. The understanding of rhythm's importance in all areas of life can also be a great insight. This carries over into the workplace and encourages "thinking outside of the square".
Stress Release & Relaxation: Physical in its very nature, drumming can be a great stress release, often "breaking the ice" and leaving people feeling relaxed. The feeling experienced after a drum circle has been likened to the effect derived from meditation and is therefore very rejuvenating. The effect of drumming on mental states is very profound in that the focus, stress release and group energy after a circle, all add together to leave people feeling both stimulated, relaxed and receptive. This is effective as a tool to set the atmosphere and tone of conferences, team building activities and other significant corporate events.
Breaking Down Barriers: Drumming is extremely useful in breaking down barriers between diverse demographics. Regardless of age, sex, culture or job title, participants all come together and share the same musical pulse, contributing to the same piece of music. During the drum circle, playing fields are leveled... one team, one beat.
Memorable Team Fun: Interactive drumming puts smiles on dials and leaves participants in great moods. It's a real celebration of people having fun and interacting with one another. For this very reason drumming has been used for centuries to celebrate, reward and inspire.
A Truly Unique Experience: Drumming is extremely memorable since it is seemingly such an unusual thing to do. Most people will never have drummed on a traditional African Djembe drum and certainly would not have seen a large group transformed into a unified orchestra before!
A Celebration of Multicultural Diversity: Drumming is a great way to open people up to the beauty of diverse cultures. It is a universal language and therefore showcases the power of multiculturalism. At the core of our session is non-verbal facilitation - so powerful are the messages found in drumming!
