Count Me In! inclusive arts with rythmn at the heart. I have the privilage to facilitate a group every tuesday afternoon for adults with learning difficulties. We call our group count me in. I was scheduled to facilitate a specific group at a college near Yeovil, Somerset. Everything was o.k when in walked one of the teachers asking if I would mind if she brought in a group of students who couldnt concentrate do to the drumming. They came in beaming, ready to have fun, dancing, singing, lots and lots of joyful expression. Like they had never experienced anything like it before. Every Tuesday for 10 weeks after these same students would stop their lessons next door and come in for the sessions. It was a joy to facilitate this wonderful group -Mike

Hi Mike

yes that's what its all about - being in the moment with the rhythm driving and expanding and receiving and changing - the magic of musical energy, of dancing, of celebration.

Hi Mike, how is life after your move to Frome? Maybe we can touch base sometime when I am down in Glastonbury. I am just back from Hawaii and getting ready to do some more druming!
