The Facilitators Playshop is an opportunity for those who work with people
to learn to facilitate groups through
the metaphor of a drum circle. You do not have to be a musician to
participate. A drum circle is a fully
participating, interacting group of people creating and sharing a
rhythmical and musical experience together.
This experience results in harmony, camaraderie and a feeling of wellness
amongst the participants.
Regardless of the group's level of rhythmical experience a good
drum-circle facilitator can guide a group to its
highest potential while making beautiful music together.
COURSE DESCRIPTION:
This experiential intensive includes learning and practice with
facilitation theory and techniques. Through small
group activities using movement, voice, musical instruments and
improvisational games participants will learn
group leadership skills, platform presentation techniques and body
language communication.
At the completion of this program participants will have a practical
understanding of the basic techniques
necessary to successfully lead and facilitate groups of any size and
composition through a community rhythm
event.

opportunity to practice and observe the skills learned during the
workshop.
