Join Alison from Just BE Sound and Movement Therapy for this Ecstatic Dance Journey with the theme of 'Spirit of the Drum'.

First timers are very welcome!

In Sound and Movement Therapy drumming is used as a therapeutic tool, to bring grounding, relaxation and balance. Through the process of entrainment, our vibration can be synchronised with that of the drum, bringing us back into alignment with our natural frequency. The playlist will be carefully selected to allow us to experience and merge with the Spirit of the Drum.

The drum is said to be the oldest musical percussion instrument. Drums also played an important role in the use of rituals and religious ceremonies, to help people express themselves and for communication purposes. In Native American culture, the beat of the drum is believed to be in sync with the heartbeat of mother earth.
After an opening cacao ceremony to set intentions, we’ll begin our journey together with a little guidance to warm up. The invitation is to disconnect the mind and connect with the body freely, without self-judgement or fearing judgement from others. Movement is conscious, intuitive and spontaneous as you allow the vibrations of the sound to resonate in whichever way feels right for you.
