Drumming circles are about rhythm, connection and shared energy.
When we drum together, our breathing and heart rhythms naturally begin to synchronise. It’s a powerful way to feel grounded, present and part of something bigger.
Our drumming circle is at the beautiful Lower Axford Farm near Callington and will be outdoors around a fire in the warmer months.
No experience needed — just bring your heartbeat.
Next Date: 21st April 2026
Time: 7pm – 8.30pm
Venue: Lower Axford Farm, Callington
Cost: £5 per person – pay cash on the day
Bring your own drum if you have one, otherwise we have some you can use.
