The Earthfolk Drum and Dance Clinic, at The Farm in Tennessee, was born from a passion for sharing the transformative power of rhythm with our community. Drumming and dancing have been essential to human connection and expression for millennia, yet many in the United States lack access to these enriching practices.
Our clinic seeks to bridge this gap by offering
- Technique and Tradition Classes: Learn the skills of djembe, congas, cajon, dunun, and frame drum, as well as Afro-Cuban and West African dance styles.
- Creative Movement Dance: Explore somatic awareness and integrate traditional vocabulary into your movement.
- Drum Circle Labs: Gain hands-on experience playing various roles in small-group drum circles, with personalized coaching to enhance your skills and ability to contribute. In these labs, participants receive valuable experience in inclusive, co-creative drumming, learning strategies to create meaningful contributions to the circle.
- Community Drum and Dance Fire Circles: Put your newfound skills into practice in a joyful, inclusive setting.
Our goal is to immerse you in a vibrant community centered around rhythm. Drumming and dancing have always been pathways to deeper connection—with ourselves, with each other, and with a timeless, universal practice that cultivates inner and outer peace.
