Programs
We offer
fun, dynamic, interactive group drumming
and rhythm programs adapted
to each client. In every program,
we provide each person with a drum or
percussion instrument. No experience
is necessary. Within minutes, your
company, organization, or group will be playing
drums,
creating rhythms, and making music through their collective spirits.
And, we can accommodate groups up to 1000 and more.
"Awesome! . . .
You guys have a great idea going!"

We specialize in
providing interactive
group drumming, drum circle
and rhythm events, including:
Team
Building and Corporate Training-
Imagine your organization or team
completely engaged in
drumming, creating
rhythms and making music together. We facilitate
and develop the drum circle and rhythm event
as an experiential learning process.
In short, we enable people and groups to learn
and process what they need in order to take the
next step
towards greater
unity, spirit, and
purpose. The simple act of playing
music together becomes a metaphor for how people
work together as a team. Group drumming
breaks through language, educational, gender,
organizational and cultural barriers that divide
associates and employees.
People experience the power of unity through diversity.
And, our corporate facilitators debrief experiences so that learning
becomes a fun,
interactive experience that empowers every
individual to share their creative spirit while
playfully releasing stress. Whether the focus is leadership development,
building team spirit, communication skills, conflict
resolution, etc..., we adapt our programs to
meet your objectives. The result
is improved morale, enhanced productivity,
and higher performance with greater team creativity,
purpose and
energy.
"Great! Awesome energy and ability to
breakdown all egos and barriers."

Sports
Teams-
From high
school to college and professional teams,
rhythm is fundamental to sports.
We powerfully facilitate teams in
stronger rhythms and connections while
debriefing the process throughout the program. The
result is greater
team spirit, teamwork, and performance.
We also customize our programs to each team and
issues specific to them and their season. We
have developed a coordinated series of programs, The
Heartbeat of Champions, that progressively build
teamwork, heart, and performance throughout the
season. And, we enable players and coaches to have
fun
and connect while facilitating the
experience as a metaphor for how players and coaches
work together as a team.
Ultimately, teams explore, discover, and
connect with their Peak Rhythms.
Sports Team
Building Video
Conferences,
Keynotes, and Retreats-
Whether an opening to a
conference, a mid-meeting program, or a closing
ceremony, our programs enable people to deeply
connect with one another. We provide
fun, dynamic experiences
at any stage of a conference and adapt the
program to meet your
goals.
Healthcare
and Wellness-
We offer individual and a
coordinated series of
programs based on the Health Rhythms™
protocol, which has been scientifically
researched and shown to provide direct
physiological health benefits, including lowered levels of
cortisol (corresponding to stress release) and
increased activity in T1 Killer cells in the
immune system. For companies, the result is healthier
employees and less sick leave. Further, our coordinated six-week
Health Rhythms™ programs are designed to lower
employee turnover in high employee
burnout workplaces. Recently published
Health Rhythms™ research programs have resulted
in lowering employee turnover by nearly 20%,
resulting in direct and
substantial cost savings to
companies. The most recent research
projects cost savings of
$322,000 for the average acute care
hospital based on Health Rhythms™ programs'
lowering nurse turnover.

Education-
An
important part of our mission is to provide
programs for educators and students. We
have facilitated many training and
team building programs for administrators and
educators. We have also conducted many
programs for students and children of all ages. Our
programs allow administrators, educators, and
students to creatively express themselves in a
fun, empowering atmosphere while
experiencing multiple layered learnings.
Our programs include drums and instruments
originating from diverse cultures. We
extend the metaphor to acknowledge all aspects
of student diversity and then experience how the
school community unites through rhythm. We
also include learnings about indigenous
cultures, drumming, and rhythm. Our
programs develop communication skills and
stimulate creative expression. We welcome
every opportunity to deliver educational and
school programs that focus on listening, sharing
and supporting one another.
Personal
and Spiritual Development-
We have
facilitated many programs for personal and spiritual
growth conferences and retreats. Group drumming and ritual is a
powerful means of healing and
transformation. When we see an
individual's eyes light up with an awareness of
a deeper personal and/or group connection, we
feel fortunate to be a part of that process.
In fact, we hope that people experience that
connection in every program.
Community-
As part of our
mission, we regularly support and facilitate community drum
circles and conduct programs with community
based groups. Our clients have included
Big Brother/Big Sister programs, Advocates for
Victims of Assault, Boys and Girls Clubs,
homeless shelters, libraries, at risk youth, and more... We believe
that drumming and rhythm programs should be available and accessible to all people within
the community.
