Show Description

For centuries people have used drumming to release stress, raise their spirits, enhance clarity and focus, and develop a culture of co-operation and community.


The effect of drumming is a synchronization of energy, a unity and common purpose. When you hear the rhythm of the group drumming and you are contributing your beat, you become receptive and creative all at the same time.

Each person is provided with a traditional African drum. Drum Cafe's team of master facilitators and musicians will teach you how to play and how listen to one another. Within 15 minutes your company will be making music!

With a proven record of over 10,000 events in 19 countries The Drum Cafe has astounded audiences across the globe by transforming groups into percussive orchestras within minutes.

The Drum Cafe has performed for The Queen of England, Nelson Mandela, Tony Blair and George W. Bush. Corporate clients include BMW, RBC, CIBC, London Drugs, Bank of America, Bayer, Coca-Cola, FedEx, General Motors, Georgia Pacific, Kaiser Permanente, Kodak, Microsoft, Motorola, SunTrust, GlaxoSmithKline and Turner Broadcasting.

Why use Drumming for Team Building?

UNIQUE

  • Drumming has been used by communities for centuries to communicate, celebrate and prepare for battle. It is the oldest known form of team building;
  • The drumbeat unifies & fosters co-operation - it creates a common purpose for the team;
  • Sparks the imagination and creativity of the group;
  • It gets people thinking outside of the box.

INTERACTIVE

  • This is a very powerful, unforgettable team building activity;
  • Allows for immediate success and requires no aptitude or physical ability;
  • New practical skills are required and applied in a safe environment.

POWERFUL WAY TO CREATE UNITY

  • Help people break from the rational/analytical mind to be more spontaneous and intuitive;
  • Step out of the "comfort zone" and normal entrenched patterns of thinking and be open to fresh ideas;
  • Enables people to take on challenges and creates connectedness to others in the team.

STRESS RELEASE

  • Drumming has been scientifically proven to change brainwave patterns and quickly relieve stress;
  • You will quickly reach an ALPHA state that will enhance focus and clarity;
  • By letting off steam you will feel a state of balance, become relaxed and energized.

LEARNING AND INSIGHT

  • There are many "learning's" gained from a Drum Cafe session and the analogies between an orchestra and a team can give great insight;
  • There has to be collaboration, listening and contribution of energy;
  • The synergy between the an individual and the group is the essence of team work;
  • A piece of music, like a company, is made of many different parts which have to work in harmony together to succeed.

–Temerty Faculty of Medicine - University of Toronto (2023)

The Drum Café at our Town Hall was a wonderful delight and a positive team building experience. It was incredible to participate in an activity that brought everyone together for a common purpose, a successful outcome, and laughs along the way. The feedback from each person who attended was overwhelming as they described their emotions and their pride at being a part of this team activity. We all learned and grew in our understanding together as the Drum Café led us with movement and facial expressions and very few words. It is a reminder that change management doesn’t need to be scary when they can take a roomful of people who never drummed before and have us playing enjoyable music within an hour. I couldn’t have asked for a better first in person team event after years of working remotely. Well done!

–Electrical Safety Authority (2023)
