Corporate Drum Circle
Feel the Rhythm Drum Circles offer Rhythm Based Events to businesses and organizations in the Okanagan Valley who wish to foster a sense of team spirit, and create appreciation for the diversity of its group members. Rhythm events are also popular at Professional Development retreats, helping to unify and focus the group.
"A drum circle is a group of people who, by playing drums and percussion instruments together, experience what it is like to work together in rhythm, which promotes a sense of group synergy, cooperation and accomplishment."
Facilitated drum circles are effective because they are fun and energizing activity that provide an alternative to traditional 'talk and chalk' presentations. They also reflect the values and dynamics of the company or organization, such as cooperation, effective communication, building on each others strengths, peer support and inclusion.
Benefits of the Facilitated Drum Circle include:
A program will be designed for your specific needs, be it team building, an opening session to welcome and unite, or an energizing session to help stimulate ideas.
"Jim Copeman was an important part of a series of Community Cultural Dialogues. We needed sound, activity and a genial motivator to keep the creative juices flowing for our participants. Jim did an admirable job of getting everyone (even the sceptics!) involved in a group drumming… We had a lot of favourable feedback on our evaluations about the drumming and we think it was a fun way to reinforce our philosophy that when we are talking and working together as a community, everyone has a part to play and there’s no such thing as a mistake!"

"Jim's drum circle was the perfect choice for our annual event’s entertainment. Jim managed to get us all 'entertaining ourselves' and that in itself was spectacular. We highly recommend the drum circle for any type of group event. It brought strangers together in a relaxed, congenial and fun environment. Everybody can do this. We are still receiving compliments."

"Jim did an amazing job at our 3rd annual YMCA Healthy Kids Day. He provided a fun environment where kids and their parents were able to work together to create fun music! He drew everyone at the event to the stage! I'd recommend Jim and Drum Circles for any type of team building event. He's amazing to work with!"
Just wanted to say thank you again for the amazing drumming and energy you brought to our wedding and workshop. It was simply a pleasure to have you there and we hope to drum and work with you again! Health and Peace."
