Others, such as guided interactive drumming and clinical improvisation might be new to some. If you are a music educator, music therapist, or recreational music facilitator or guide (such as a Developmental Community Music leader or drum circle facilitator), this podcast will be of great interest to you!

If you’re not as familiar with group drumming and some of the terminology that is used within the genre, listen and learn!

Kalani discusses how basic life rhythms relate to several aspects of health and how those rhythms align with and relate to musical experiences. You’ll learn about the different rhythms of the body and get some ideas as to how to structure musical experiences to support and facilitate positive physical and emotional changes that lead to greater health for groups. You’ll also learn how to use ‘the rhythms of life’ to support your own health goals.

Rhythms are part of every-day living and many of the body’s natural rhythms can be used within musical experiences to facilitate positive health changes. This is accomplished through designing and facilitating structured experiences that align with and modulate the bodies natural rhythms in ways that are intentional and desirable. Two primary areas of focus include the rhythms of walking and the rhythms of breathing. Both of these areas relate to �our general physical health and can be developed to affect emotional and spiritual health.
