Drumming For Healing
~ Next Gathering: Monday 20th October 2025 ~
7-9pm, at Riverbank Cottage, Wareham
I am on maternity leave, but would be very disappointed to stop drumming with like-minded people for a year, so whilst workshops at Morton Village Hall have stopped, the option to gather around the fire and drum at my home remains open. The October session will be on the Monday 20th , as long as my baby has not arrived extra-early!
If the weather is fair, we will drum around the fire in our fire circle, between our garden and our strip of ancient woodland. It is a magical space where we hold ceremonies all year round; you can enjoy the energies of Oak and Holly trees that are hundreds of years old, as well as the River Piddle, which will be right beside us. If it is raining, we will be inside drumming around the log-burner.
Remember to wear clothing that is warm (layers are good) and washes easily - fireside drumming can leave your clothes smelling a little smoky afterwards. Blankets, extra socks, hot water bottles may also be useful! Bring a lidded travel mug if you think you might like a hot drink – there's a hot water urn inside you can help yourself to before or after the session.
Location: Riverbank Cottage, Puddletown Road, Wareham, Dorset BH20 6AE
- a better postcode is BH20 6AX; our drive is directly opposite Binnegar Lane and signs for The Waste Group -
Time: 7-9pm - though please arrive a little early to get parked, settled in and make a hot drink if you'd like one
Suitable for beginners through to seasoned drummers. You are welcome to bring your own drum, or borrow one of mine.
More about drumming:
You’ll step out of your busy mind and into place of calm, clarity and connection. Whilst drumming you’ll anchor into the present moment, ground into your body, and access healing for mind, body and spirit.
The drum naturally clears away stagnant energy, and brings things to the surface for acknowledgement and release. You will be held in safe space to go as deep as you are called to, so that you leave feeling brighter, clearer, and reinvigorated.
