This will be a shorter 4 week session and the cost is $70 .  Please join us!Come join us and learn the language of the drum and new ways to express yourself creatively and to communicate with others from your heart through your hands on the drum! Drumming has been a means of exploring and expanding our inner spirits for eons, as well as a powerful method for building and strengthening community bonds, relieving tension and reducing stress, connecting to a higher power, honoring changes, life passages, and Earth passages, as well as a way to heal our bodies , minds, and souls! And it has always been a celebratory means of expressing the pure joy of BEING ALIVE! I look forward to sharing a rhythm with you soon! In peace, love, and gratitude, Sherry
