Welcome Richmond Rhythm Drummers 

This is part of the www.Virginia-World-Rhythms-Drum-Circle.com group. This MeetUp will focus mainly in the area of Richmond VA but not limit it possibilities to enjoy drum circles in other parts of the state. 

  What's our group about?

Basically, it's playing and hand drumming.  It's about meeting other like-minded people and making music. It's about sharing your inner Rhythm Spirit with everyone. We accept one and all--if you've never played before, if you've been playing for years, if you are a dancer and always wanted to try drumming, it's completely open. You can try a few different kinds of drums and shakers and bells. It's also about making new friends and creating a new family of friends. We are family friendly! Bring the kids along; hey, bring the parents along too. All will have a good time--I promise

My name is Arthur and I am the Drum Circle Facilitator/Organizer Hand Drum Instructor for this group. I'm organizing drum circles from Richmond VA all the way to Virginia Beach. This website is for players in the Richmond VA area. We meet at least once a month at the Carillon near Byrd Park during the summer, and for the winter months we are changing to different indoor venues. Sometimes we attend special events for charity and good causes like drumming with the physically handicap and the intellectually challenge or Drumming for the Cure for Cancer and Peace Movements.

Drum Circle

          To make beautiful music together, all we have to do is bring to the circle whatever rhythmical expertise we have to offer, along with the excitement of sharing it with other people. The quality of the music produced in an event like this is not based on the rhythmical expertise of the players, but on the quality of their relationship with the other people in the circle. The result is those magical musical moments where one powerful voice is created out of the many. In those moments, the players stop worrying about keeping time because time, as they know it, has stopped. In it's place is a living breathing entity, expressing timeless joy, passion and release through the power of rhythm. That is the beauty of a community drum circle.
