Drum Circle Information 

I co - lead a drum Circle the 2nd Saturday of the month at 7:30 pm.  The drum circle is located at the Piedmont Unitarian Universalist Church (www.puuc.org).  It is a social time where one can drum, talk. eat and share something of themselves.  

In preparation for the Magickal Fire Drum Circle to be held at Beltane Brouhaha (see http://www.churchofwicca.org/beltane/ for updates), we will work with earth based chants (Native American and others) and the rhythms developed from them.  Through chanting, drumming and dancing, we will connect to the earth and more primitive spirituality.  Attached is the Songbook I plan to use.  Take time to print you a copy and listen to the MP3 files from http://www.firedance.org/chantnow.php .  

No one has to be a expert drummer. I want to encourage everyone to come drum no matter what ability.  All you have to have is a desire to drum and a snack to much on.  Come feel the rhythm of life and drum with us.  You are invited.  

We have a special appearance tonight.  The Senior High Youth of PUUC are coming to join us in drumming.   Catch in on the Energy and Joy of Youth!!
