Drum Circle Curation

Highly Intentional Drum Circles for Deep Transformation (& just plain fun)

With expert facilitation and curated energetics, you’ll experience high caliber music, deep connection, and a memorable event your group will be talking about for years to come.

PERFECT FOR:


Event or Festival Coordinators

Bring intention to the rhythm. Instead of hoping an organic circle comes together, you can facilitate a guided, curated drum circle that lifts the energy of the entire festival and leaves people buzzing with connection.

Cultural Organizations, Schools or Churches

Give your community a safe, fun, and cooperative way to connect. Drumming breaks down walls, helps kids (and adults) listen more deeply, and unites people beyond differences in a way few activities can.

Weddings, Parties + Gatherings

Turn any gathering into something unforgettable. The beat creates an instant spark—people move, energy rises, and the night becomes a shared memory that lives long after the last note.

The Heartbeat of HoloRhythm

The djembe is a vessel of self-expression, and a tool that mirrors your inner-self. As you play, you reflect one’s being into the world, creating an intimate bond through sharing your truth, in togetherness.
