Yoga and Drumming
March 21st - 23rd
Kripalu Center for Yoga & Health
Lenox, MA

Revitalize your body and spirit in a dynamic, fun-filled weekend of Kripalu Yoga and African-influenced hand drumming led by Shaun Laframboise and Allison Gemmel, members of KDZ: The Drummers at Kripalu. Come expand awareness, access energy, cultivate transformation, and have a really good time.

Your day will begin with a rhythm-filled yoga practice to reconnect with the inner pulse of your body, breath, and energy. Then make the shift to creative expression by exploring

  • African-influenced rhythms (djembe and Ashiko style drumming)
  • Proper body mechanics and drumming technique
  • Drum circle experience
  • Basic and intermediate solo technique
  • Take-home practice rhythms
  • Intentions and the power to manifest the life you want.

You will also have the option to move your body to live drumming by KDZ during a noontime DansKinetics® session. Come unearth your inner beat. No drumming or yoga experience is necessary.

Note If you have a drum, bring it. If not, be sure to let us know when you register that you need a drum, so that we can reserve one for you. Bring an audio recorder if you’d like.
