"The rhythm is in your blood."

Welcome to Releasing Rhythms.

Releasing Rhythms offers the opportunity to play a wide range of African drums and various other percussion instruments in a fun, relaxing, safe and supportive environment.

Everyone is musical, we all have a heart beat so there is rhythm within each of us. What is so unique about the drums is that they are accessible to everyone, because anyone can hit a drum and no previous musical experience is necessary!

Drums have been used for thousands of years, initially believed to have been communication devices in more primitive times. As time progressed they became an important part in tribal gatherings accompanying ritual dancing and celebration. Drums have had ceremonial, sacred, and symbolic association and today there is a big revival of drumming in our communities, as we are becoming more aware of the huge benefits to be gained from this ancient activity.

Drumming affects us on all levels, mentally, physically, emotionally and spiritually. The aim of Releasing Rhythms is to allow participants to experience the thrill of making music in a group, resulting in only positive outcomes.
