(Palm Beach Drum Circle, Jupiter FL)

If you enjoy the flow arts like fire-performing, hooping, poi-spinning and the rhythmic sound of a drum, attend a local drum circle. This was on the Blue Moon at the beach and included drum, dance & flow art performances, spiritual chanting with gentle drumming. It was under a beautiful sky and you jam with great percussionists in the area.

“The drum circle offers equality because there is no head or tail. It includes people of all ages. The main objective is to share rhythm and get in tune with each other and themselves. To form a group consciousness. To entrain and resonate. By entrainment, I mean that a new voice, a collective voice, emerges from the group as they drum together. ”

Mickey Hart, Grateful Dead Drummer, testimony before the U.S. Special Committee on Aging
