Woman's Drum Circle
with Deb St.Amant
In a modern world that often feels disconnected from the rhythms of nature and the wisdom of our ancestors, the drumming circle offers a sacred space to reconnect with ourselves, each other and the ancient feminine power that resides within us all.
The circle provides a safe, supportive space for participants to explore their creativity, release emotions and tap into their inner wisdom.
No experience necessary.
Come as you are, with an open heart and a willingness to embrace the power of drumming together.
