SUMMARY:Rhythm of the Season | Beltane Fusion Sound Alchemy: Yoga Mantras Meet Drum Medicine
DESCRIPTION:with Sal Annunziato & Mark Zarrillo\nBeltane\, the mid-way point between the Spring Equinox and Summer Solstice. Ancient peoples recognized this as the beginning of summer. Fire is often associated with this day and can symbolize purification and passion\, as it was common for an old fire to be extinguished and a new one to be lit. \nImmerse yourself in a transformative fusion of sound and meditation. Blending the primal power of drumming with the sacred vibrations of yoga chanting\, we’ll create a dynamic space for release\, connection\, and deep inner harmony. \n\nExperience a guided drum circle to awaken your rhythm and sync with the collective pulse.\nChant uplifting mantras to open the heart and elevate energy.\nDiscover the healing power of vibration as drumbeats and chants merge into a meditative trance.\n\nNo prior experience necessary—just bring an open heart and a willingness to play and resonate together. Some instruments will be provided or feel free to bring your own. \nPre-registration encouraged.  Sliding Scale available. Cash/Venmo drop-ins welcome. \nRegister HERE\n \n  \n

SUMMARY:Rhythms Of The Season - Autumnal Equinox Gathering
DESCRIPTION:Join us as we honor the Equinox\, a time of balance–when day and night are nearly equal. To the ancients this marked the period between high summer and deep winter\, it was a mjor point in the wheel of the year\, and many astrologically significant structures are built that align with Equinox. This is a time for the second harvest and to reflect on the balance we seek in the remaining rays of warmth as the cycles of the wheel continue to turn. Come to drum\, to move\, or simply\, be. All are welcome. As in the past\, we’ll meet beyond the parking lot for Meigs Point Nature Center. In the grassy field–you’ll see/hear us as you drive through. A seat or blanket is highly recommended. If you have a favorite instrument you’d like to play\, feel free to bring it. A limited number of drums and percussion will be available. Rain/wet weather cancels. Donations welcome.
