Rhythms for Recovery - Paignton

Delve deeper into djembe drumming for the promotion of personal and social recovery and wellbeing.
Forget your worries, find your rhythm and express yourself playing African rhythms.

Building on the beginners course we will explore more complex rhythms and develop confidence and fluency for self-expression.

There are a wide range of benefits associated with African drumming including:

• The promotion of personal and social wellbeing.
• Promotion of relaxation and calm, lowering blood pressure and an enhanced sense of wellbeing.
• Aids the reduction of tension and stress by providing a focused form of relaxation much like meditation.
• Emotional release through non-verbal expression.
• Helps to control chronic pain by promoting the production of endorphins.
• Promotion of social wellbeing through the connection with the wider community.
