Dahn Yoga Healing Drum Class

dmd-008.jpg 

I don’t want to work, I just want to bang on the drum all day…Last night was the final night of our drum class. The experience of the last 6 weeks will stay with me for many years to come. Even though I have been playing drums in rock/punk bands for 20 years, I approached these lessons with a beginner’s heart, as it is a new kind of drum for me, and was greatly rewarded.For me, it was a great experience to play with people who were also beginners on the drum, and to share their excitement and joy of learning something brand new. And fun too! I mean, really what is more fun than the art of percussion… the art of hitting things with other things! Hearing the loudest noises created by the smaller/shorter people made me smile too.

Watching new drummers grow and improve from week to week was really fun and I wondered if I had not ever met these people in a drum class, would I know or even think that they could play the drum if I met them on the street or out in the community? I would probably assume they did not, and be very wrong. My eyes are open to this prejudice now.

When I heard other students talking about how energizing it was to play the drum, how it awakened their spirit in the late evening hours of the class but allowed them to sleep peacefully… it codified and validated what I had known for a long time. When I play the drums, I feel better. If I stay away from the drums too long, I don’t feel so good anymore, and I think only of getting back to it.

And then there was the final performance last night. After many weeks of following the teacher, I had a moment to express my own leadership on the drum, add some personal touches (or mistakes), and throw in a little rock crescendo at the end to add a little extra excitement. I think a few were surprised ;-)
But probably the most enlightening moments for me were the final breathing and relaxation exercises that closed each class. This process of calming and incorporating the healing power of playing the drum into my being was a completely new experience… you can imagine that the post-show or post-rehearsal action of a rock or punk band is a little different, there was no avenue for calming or redirecting the incredible energy that is released from within and among the people involved. This is a powerful new process that I can add to my playing repertoire…

Many thanks to all students and teachers that made this a great class!

Answer Within System Training

EXECUTIVE TRAINING FOR
SELF-MASTERY - LEADERSHIP - TEAMBUILDING

The Answer-Within System (”AWS”) is a performance enhancing set of programs, for organizations and individuals. It fundamentally improves the way organizations conduct their business, manage their processes and how organization members deal with each other. By empowering them to discover and cultivate their highest potential to create value, AWS helps organizations and individuals operate at optimal effectiveness and make greater contributions to themselves and their social environment. AWS training develops competence through behavioral-cognitive learning. This “complete system” type of learning integrates different modules of the brain and utilizes body and brain together. Learning in AWS training is therefore imbedded in a deeper level of the brain, transforming knowledge into actionable competence. Thus, changes are not merely intellectual, but extend to the action, feeling and perception of the participant. AWS participants find solutions to persistent challenges not only from intellectual level, but also behavioral level, and thus make a fundamental and lasting difference. Because they learn from actual experience, participants learn more and faster.

The basis of our unique training programs is an integration of important scientific research about the brain, Eastern and Western wisdom traditions and practical and effective application techniques.
