About drum circles...
Drum circles are places where community can come together to celebrate connection with spirit, with the earth, with each other, and with life. Drum circles can hold a variety of different intentions. Your facilitator will be setting the container of the circle by calling in the directions and setting intentions. Drumming will move you and the other participants into the spirit realm, where whatever intention was set, becomes the focus. As the circle progresses, energy is built, then finally released. Drum circles can be light and celebratory or be more focused. Whatever the intention, drumming is a wonderful way of spending time in community!
free to attend and Open to everyone!
Anyone may attend the seasonal ceremonies. Ceremonies will last about 1-1.5 hours depending on participation. Click on the calendar below for the schedule. Although there is no cost to attend, some of the facilitators love coffee and tea and we wouldn't mind a cup or two. To attend the ceremony, please register below!
"What do I bring?" "How Do I prepare?"
Drums or Other Instruments
Bring a drum if you have one! If not, you can bring other rhythm instruments, such as rattles, tambourines, or even cymbals. If none of these instruments are readily available, you can easily make a rattle by putting some dried beans in a jar.
Candle
A lit candle creates a sacred space and is a signal to the spirit realm.
Smudging Materials
Smudging, usually by letting sacred smoke (sage, for example) move over the body or the area, is a good way of cleansing your own energy as well as the energy of the room in preparation.
