IN PERSON AT AUBURN PUBLIC LIBRARY

This course explores the literal and metaphorical value of rhythm in the context of human behavior. Research has documented the physical and emotional benefits of drumming for 25+ years and increasing adoption of drumming across religious and spiritual traditions. Each session provides a brief background connecting drumming to physical, emotional, and spiritual benefits and will spend more time turning theory into practice and play. No musical experience or knowledge required. Instruments will be provided and participants are invited to bring their own hand drums/percussion instruments. 

Sean Douglas, LCSW has been tapping out rhythms for as long as he can remember and has been practicing as clinical social worker for 20+ years. As a social worker, he has brought drumming to individuals, couples and groups in a variety of clinical, professional and recreational settings
