Drumming circle team building is a highly effective way of
bringing a group or team together in a friendly social environment. Group
drumming is engaging, effective and fun!
When a group of people come together to drum, it is a powerful and moving
experience - this is what makes group drumming so popular. The rhythmic
beating of the drums brings everyone onto the same page, and within minutes
the entire group can be synchronised.
The experience of participating in this group drumming activity is highly
memorable, physically & mentally stimulating, and develops inter-personal
connections.
The drumming team building experience also increases socialisation and morale,
reduces stress, and is a metaphor for working together in harmony, in the
work place and other spheres of life. Contact:
The Drumming Guys operate throughout South Africa: Johannesburg,
Pretoria, Cape Town and Durban, and provide interactive drumming
circles for team building, parties,
private and corporate events.
And we offer drumming performances, DJ's and entertainment.
We also specialise in importing and making high quality hand made
african drums and percussion instruments.
There are various types of group drumming - social drum circles:
the freestyle session where participants can play as they wish without
having a specific leader;
and interactive drum circles - where the group is led and
guided by experienced drummers. As well as the drum ensemble, a
group that plays together regularly, usually for the purpose of
performing.
Our interactive drumming circles are led by seasoned facilitators
- who set the tone and tempo for the drumming session, teaching
specific rhythms and maintaining a sense of order within the group
- while working towards a specific goal.
Interactive drumming team building is what we specialise in.
Drumming as an exercise for team building
This team building activity - where the drumming team building
session is facilitated by professional drumming facilitators - can
be used to achieve various outcomes. Group drumming for team building
is also known as interactive drumming - because our facilitators
interact with the team, and the team becomes part of the performance.
Which unites everyone while working towards a common goal.
Outcomes of a team building drumming session can be:
Improving inter-personal socialisation and team unity.
Working together in harmony, improving communication.
Delivering a message using drumming as a metaphor.
Bringing different people (or groups) together.
Promoting harmony within the group or company.
Building team morale.
Reducing stress.
Working towards a common goal, team work makes achievement possible.
This makes interactive drumming highly effective for team building,
promoting harmony in the workplace, and enhancing a team's group
identity and unity. Drumming team building is an activity suitable
for Corporates, Schools, Churches, and any organisation - and it
has proven to be highly effective and popular across all cultures
and age groups.
We provide team building in Johannesburg, Pretoria, Centurion, Midrand,
Durban, Cape Town and all surrounding areas. We can travel to where
ever your event is - just let us know when and where...
Drumming circles for parties
An interactive drumming circle is great for parties and social
occasions, since playing drums is popular amongst all age groups
and crosses cultural boundaries with ease.
We use djembe drums (sometimes referred to as bongos - although
they are different drums) because they are very responsive instruments,
and the african rhythms we teach can be learnt easily without requiring
an extensive introduction to hand techniques.
The interactive drumming experience also makes it easier for people
to join in the rhythm as a group - when a group plays a rhythm (sets
up a consistent groove), it becomes easier for more people to join
in - the group rhythm unites everyone - and in no time the entire
group is playing as one drum. This is a powerful and moving experience.
This also requires having facilitators who are professional drummers,
and experienced in teaching groups. As well as being able to adapt
quickly to the unique circumstances that a live event may present.
Interactive drumming circles are suitable for kids and adults birthday
parties, weddings, bachelor & bachelorette parties and celebrations,
social get-togethers, church groups, corporate health and wellness
days, and much more..
We operate throughout South Africa: Johannesburg, Pretoria, Cape
Town & Durban, and abroad.
