Madrona MindBody Institute invites you to join Zorina Wolf of Village HeartBeat in a 4-week "Whole Person Rhythm" series each Saturday in March, and rediscover your innate rhythmic self.
Zorina Wolf is considered to be America's preeminent TaKeTiNa Teacher. She trained for 14-years under the tutelage of Babatunde Olatunji and leads African rhythm and drumming workshops of all sizes. She also founded the drumming/dance/educational group Village Heartbeat.
When you join the rhythm circle, you are gently guided into using your body as the first instrument that “plays” with 3 different rhythmic layers: stepping, clapping or playing drums, and vocalization/chanting. Each person develops a deep understanding of rhythm in his or her own timing. As you relax into learning at your own pace, the group can create space for deeper intuitive understanding, self-discovery, and quiet calm.
Sessions will be held Saturdays 4-6pm, March 6th - March 27th, 2010. Each week will focus on a different aspect of rhythm: beat, offbeat, simple and complex cycles. Neither musical training nor drums are required, but curiosity is a welcome ally.
