Winter naturally slows us down — sometimes in ways that feel peaceful, sometimes in ways that leave us a little dull or disconnected.

Alive in Rhythm: Winter Drumming Sessions is a place to wake up your body, focus your mind, and lift your spirit through the energy of drumming.

Each week, you’ll join a welcoming group to drum, recharge, and reconnect — no music background needed.

You might be surprised how quickly drumming helps you shake off tension, lift your mood, and feel awake and present again.

What You’ll Experience

Each session blends hands-on drumming, simple movement, and short sound-based mindfulness practices designed to help you:

🪘 Boost your rhythmic coordination and capacity

✨ Bring your energy up without pushing or forcing

⚡️ Wake up your body, coordination, and creative flow

💪 Strengthen focus and support brain health

🧠 Calm your nervous system and release built-up stress

⭐️ Feel the lift that comes from playing in rhythm with others

🤲 You can use a hand drum if you have one — or simply your lap, a pillow, or anything that makes a sound.Bring your energy up without pushing or forcing

How It Works

We’ll meet live on Zoom for five Monday evenings.

Each 75-minute session includes:

Step-by-step drumming that’s easy to follow and energizing
Time to connect, laugh, and share rhythm with others
A relaxing cooldown to help your body integrate the experience
Session recordings you can revisit anytime you need a reset

You’ll also receive early access to future Alive in Rhythm programs.
