If you have a heartbeat, you have rhythm!

 

At Positive RePercussions, we believe that music should be not only valued as a form of entertainment but also as a vehicle for positive change achieving specific measurable outcomes in the lives of individuals and groups. Today’s world has a need for innovative programs to help us respect differences while encouraging collaboration, allowing us to work together to a greater potential, and to create a healthy balance in our personal lives. Positive RePercussions utilizes rhythm-based activities because drums are the most accessible of musical instruments.

Group therapeutic drumming is an exercise in utilizing our natural response to rhythm and music to achieve beneficial outcomes. It is a non-competitive, inclusive activity that encourages individual creativity, breaks down social barriers, encourages freedom of expression, exercises non-verbal communication, and embodies unity and cooperation to promote physical or emotional healing.

 

Group therapeutic drumming is a holistic, active process involving all aspects of physical, cognitive, emotional, and psychological functionality, stimulating the body's natural physical and emotional healing processes. Therapeutic group drumming as a wellness tool has been proven to decrease depression, anxiety, and stress; boost immune system functioning, and benefit physical health. 

 

A growing body of research is demonstrating the positive effects of group therapeutic drumming. Dr. Barry B. Bittman, MD, has published groundbreaking studies showing its benefits to the immune system, stress levels, and mood. 

 

The foundation of our drumming program is the evidence-based HealthRHYTHMS® Group Empowerment Drumming Protocol. Scientific research has demonstrated that as a wellness strategy, HealthRHYTHMS® can create positive changes in the immune system, reduce burn-out, and improve mood states.
