| There
is a growing demand in both public and private sectors for drumming workshops
as part of "fun days" and teambuilding events. With very good reason:
Drumming is an ideal group activity which allows participants to break free from
the normal hierarchies of the work environment - at all levels. This leads to
better communication, a sense of empathy, creativity and empowerment that participants
can take back to the workplace, thereby strengthening their bonds as a team.
Typically, participants
report that personal and group dynamics dramatically improve after just one session.
Drumming is widely acknowledged to be one of the most effective and inclusive
team building activities available and, compared to other tools, delivers disproportionate
benefits in relation to its time and cost. |

In
our experience drumming is the most accessible, and fastest-working form of group
music making, ideal for corporate situations such as: Teambuilding
/ Ice breaking When any group of people needs help in connecting to each
other and the business at hand, drumming is the ultimate tool. Everyone can do
it and it enables people to share in a positive musical experience whatever their
abilities. Transition
Changes within an organization - such as mergers, restructuring, downsizing,
rapid growth, and new targets - can bring their own stresses and pressures causing
de-motivation or distress. These can be made easier through the unifying effects
of a drumming workshop.
