Sacred Beat: From the Heart of the Drum Circle
Editorial Reviews
Book Description
The beat is universal--drumming as a way of communicating with other people, spirits, and self exists around the world and throughout time. And contemporary drumming is thriving! In the neo-pagan community, the most popular festivals and workshops are those that feature drumming circles. In healing centers, nursing homes, women's centers, and schools across the country, people are forming drumming circles. Sacred Beat honors and explores every aspect of drumming--historical, contemporary, and practical.
