Drumming for health and wellness comes to Louisville!
|
If you live in the Louisville area, you probably know that we now have drumming, toning and chanting every Sunday evening from 5:30-7 PM. The sessions take place at the new headquarters of Healing Music Enterprises, 2410 Frankfort Avenue, 40206. Everyone is welcome and a $10 donation is suggested. We are having a lot of fun and learning quickly about the power of tone, sound, music and rhythm to heal, empower, and bond people together. If you have a drum or rhythm instrument please bring it but I have lots of them ready in case you don’t own your own yet. It’s a good idea to call and let me know you’ll be there so I can plan accordingly! 502-419-1698.

Playing any instrument or singing is always preferable to passive listening in terms of health benefits. It takes no prior training to play many drums and other percussion instruments for fun and enjoyment. If you’re interested in trying a small steel drum, a thumb piano, or a recorder, try an instrument from
Apollo’s Axes. You’ll be glad you did!
If you haven’t, do so quickly. You can find it
HERE! Everyone who fills it out completely will get a free book and tape of their choice. Once I have gotten another couple dozen responses I will begin the remodeling of my site. I’ve gotten many good suggestions so far and have already started the coaching process with folks locally and far away. Let me know your needs and wants!
Q:
Alice, I have a 5 year old son who has been diagnosed with Autism. He loves music and knows over 100 songs. Do you work with Autistic children?
A:
Yes I do. Now that I have a new office with a large group room, I am working individually with a few children and would like to start a small group of 4-5 kids and their Moms. Music, singing and playing simple rhythm instruments is an excellent way for children to learn social skills as well as many important life basics through music.
