Over the years - Trevor Uruski - Multi Instrumenta Over the years - Trevor Uruski - Multi Instrumentalist, ICDC Facilitator and didgeridoo master has been an integral component of our Friday Night Community Drum Circle offering. Thank you @trevoruruski for all your years of love, service, and good wind vibration.
Circles of Rhythm’s vision has always been large Circles of Rhythm’s vision has always been larger than the original ‘finger print’ (found in the center of the circle) of its founder, Judy Atkinson. “The whole is greater than the sum of its parts - Aristotle”. This image captures the visual of the Integrated Community Drum Circle #ICDC. This is the vision of a commUNITY founded by its capacity for collaboration, authentic connection, and shared contribution. Every individual circle (yes, that’s YOU!) becomes a part of the larger concentric circle(s) (e.g.: everything from the individual, our families / communities. Our regions or provinces, countries and continents. This beautiful planet, our breathtaking galaxy and the great beyond). There are no “sides” in a (drum) circle. The ICDC reminds us: All voices matter. All are welcome. Every’one’ is a contribution to the ‘whole’. The colours we selected (black, yellow, red, and white) are in recognition of our global diversity and the beauty within all nations, cultures, and traditions from around the world. The Integrated Community Drum Circle honours the global ‘voices’ by carefully selecting drums and percussion from across the globe. Finally, in the spirit of Reconciliation, the four colours and four directions of the circle honour the deeply diverse wisdom found in the sacred teachings of the Medicine Wheel. Although the ICDC is not an indigenous teaching, we humbly recognize the power of the drum and the original people of this land: First Nations, Indigenous, Inuit, and Métis. As individuals: we have an opportunity to discover our own unique rhythms for healing in the pursuit of harmony, together. ❤️🔥🥁🔥❤️ (Tagged are some of the ICDC Facilitators we’ve trained over the years… sign up for our 3-Day Training if you’d like to level up your journey of discovery using an ancient healing tool: The drum!)

This weekend… one that makes the first step of m This weekend… one that makes the first step of many for much more than just the human meatsuit we call “Julien Lepage”. Circles of Rhythm has always been bigger than me (JL), Judy Atkinson (CoR’s founder), Arthur Hull (“grandfather” of the community drum circle) and Babatunde Olatunji (Community Drumming visionnairy), or even Remo Belli (founder of Remo Drums)…. We are all Circles of Rhythm. Yes, the human species. Our individual rhythms and vibration have the capacity to heal ourselves …. and, with a little coordination, our entire planet in symbiosis. The best part of this equation is: YOU are also a Circle of Rhythm! Our vision is to help all circles of rhythm to orchestrate themselves into harmony, together.

December 9, 2021 is the LAST FRIDAY NIGHT DRUM CIRCLE IN 2021 Tickets Here: https://www.circlesofrhythm.com/community-drum-circles/
We’ve had such beautiful time drumming in the park with all of you this Summer. Circles of Rhythm is proud to state that we have been able to keep everyone safe while drumming in the great outdoors. Many who were walking by joined in on the fun, often times joining us the following week! Our grand finale last Friday, we saw over 100 drummers & 30+ spectators clapping their hands or joining in with a small piece of percussion. Autumn is upon us, and so we will be transitioning from our spectacular open-air events in the Weaselhead Flats of North Glenmore Park into our home at the Inglewood Community Hall. INDOOR DRUMMING RETURNS OCTOBER 1, 2021 Now that the cooler weather is upon us, we are excited to share that starting October 1, plans have been finalized to return to the Inglewood Community Association Hall located at 1740- 24th Ave SE, Calgary, AB. Doors will open around 6:40, commencing with our 7:00 pm Drum Call until our closing at 8:30. At Circles of Rhythm, we are committed to providing an Integrated Community Drum Circle experience grounded in compassion, kindness, and tolerance. We strive to create an inclusive, non-judgemental environment where participants are encouraged to creatively express themselves while taking part in our heart-centred events. We are also big believers in the power of rhythm to help regulate our nervous systems & improve our overall health – which for many have been severely affected – both virtually and virally – since March 2020. The pandemic has forced us to take some time away from drumming, the outdoor Friday Nights helped our team to really reflect on the “why” behind our weekly gatherings. Safety, Inclusivity, Diversity, Community, and Creative Expression come up as values-based statements that best describe the Friday Night Community Drum Circle Events. We are committed to continue to allow these Values to guide our team as we transition into weekly indoor drumming events. Short Term Plan: Some drumming is better than no drumming. In accordance with the current rental facility policies and the recently imposed business operation by-laws, COR will be implementing the Restrictions Exemption Program as outlined by AHS in its September CMOH Order 42-2021. What that means for our drumming community is that before entering the premises, all volunteers and participants: More details HERE: https://www.circlesofrhythm.com/2021/09/fall-2021-friday-night-drum-circles-inglewood-community-hall-restrictions-exemption-program/ Masks are mandatory upon entry and until seated. You may remove your mask when able to maintain physical distance from others outside of your own cohort. While we can appreciate what the potential impact of doing so may have on individual circumstances and perspectives, please know that in order to continue offering our in-person weekly circles, we must adhere to all mandated provincial and municipal health orders. Can’t attend our Community Drum Circle because of these changes? WE WANT TO HEAR FROM YOU! Please fill out this Google Doc. https://forms.gle/1pgyvaTeUGfmKB1w9 Long Term Plan: We have submitted a proposal to the Board of Directors to be considered as an “Out-of-Scope Operator” under the Mutual Support Group/Meetings essential service description. We hope that, as the We strongly believe the programming we provide is essential to the mental health and wellbeing of all attendees and wish to continue offering our FNDC to all who would like to participate while ensuring that public health safety remains a high priority. Our hope is that as the COVID-19 situation improves, we will be able to remove the need to request proof of vaccination with increased health measures, consequently allowing all who wish to access our programming to do so safely. Let’s keep our hearts and minds focused on what is most important: We are capable of sharing a Loving Kindness to our fellow humans, regardless of our differences. At this time, we encourage you to reflect upon the many reasons each of us comes together to drum in unity, especially during these complex, often divisive times. Your patience and respect for these health directives is greatly appreciated as the Circles of Rhythm team works hard to continue fostering a space for us all to connect – with ourselves and others – in a positive, safe, and supportive social environment. Please also know that in the event you choose not to physically attend at this time, we will continue to hold space in our collective hearts for you in all the ways – both within and outside the circle. Your well-being matters to us and we wish to hear from you! Please complete this form as we continue to work towards a more inclusive solution to these convoluted times. We love you, and we look forward to reconnecting with you as soon as possible!

You can purchase your tickets to the Drumming In The Park by following this link: https://www.circlesofrhythm.com/community-drum-circles/ "Drumming offers some surprising health benefits - from stress reduction, lower blood pressure, and enhanced immunity to increased mindfulness, relaxation, and feelings of connection. Julien Lepage is a big believer in the power of drumming. He runs Circles of Rhythm, a full service community drum circle business offering workplace programs, community, social, therapeutic interventions and professional training. Since COVID-19, Julien believes Circles of Rhythm has an increasingly important role to play, helping bring people together. I really enjoyed creating this short video for Julien, and am inspired by what he and his team are doing to create real connections during these troubling times. Julien Lepage is the owner and lead drummer. He operates drum circles every Friday evening in Calgary, Alberta, Canada. Go check it out!" (Mercer Production, 2020) Mercer Production.
