WHAT TO EXPECT?

This training is best suited for a group of 6 – 30 participants seeking to learn how to lead their own Drum Circles. The training will focus on COR’s Integrative Community Drum Circle (ICDC) and its therapeutic techniques & modalities. Your instructors will offer practice, support, and direction on how these ICDC techniques could be implemented as a regular therapeutic program. 

We customize the training to your agency’s programs & mandate, focusing on the main targets:

These are evidence-based skills that have been proven to be extremely effective for all: Staff, clients & their families, and community members alike!

Participants will leave the training feeling ready and capable of being the lead facilitator and/or co-facilitator of their own Integrated Community Drum Circle within their community – AND – will feel comfortable applying Judy Atkinson’s gentle drum techniques of the “Drum Wash” and “Rhythm Cradle” within their respective practice. 

WHAT YOU WILL GET
