“Its not what we do at the drum circle that will change the world, it’s how the world will change when we live our lives as we do in a drum circle.”
Owner, Integrated Community Drum Circle Facilitator & Trainer
Think of what running, painting, singing in a choir, or a great evening with friends does for you – group drumming lives in that same family of activities that are simply good for people. Research by Dr. Barry Bittman and Dr. Bruce Perry explores why rhythm eases stress, lifts mood, and builds genuine connection. With nearly three decades of experience, we are the only full service Drum Circle Company in Canada.
Drum Circles are being incorporated into the workplace for team building and stress relief, into the health sector for mental and physical health and into the community for fun and celebration!
Simply put, Drum Circles are a tool for the well-being of our selves and our world.
Circles of Rhythm programs are recreational and community wellness experiences. They are not therapy, counselling, or a regulated health service, and are not a substitute for professional mental health care.

The Integrated Community Drum Circle (ICDC) utilizes rhythms, drums, and teachings from cultures across the globe. The pursuit of balance is the guiding principle of both the ICDC Facilitator, and (hopefully) its participant!
