Sacred Heart Beats

People play the drums.

Sacred Heart Beats is an organization founded in principles of service, creativity, purpose, and community.
We believe and teach that rhythm is a tool for mindfulness, meditation, and communication for team building and conflict resolution. Our circles offer individuals these tools, regardless of their physical or mental abilities. Sacred Heart Beats facilitates peaceful, playful, and creative problem-solving interpersonal and group dynamics and communication through improvisational therapeutic drumming.

We help:

Individuals find comfort in their unique creative voice and the interplay of it with others

Families find safe and creative ways to connect to loved ones

Students to communicate with greater nuance and self discipline to peers and instructors

Vulnerable individuals and their caregivers to the larger community through drumming and movement

We recognize that the need to create, and to be seen and heard is part of the universal human experience and happens most readily within the context of safety. We achieve this by careful selection of assistants or trained supervision as appropriate to the setting.

The joy of drumming brings about healing and reduces suffering and stagnation. We hope to share this healing experience with all who join us in circle.

A drum is in focus in the foreground, and a large group of people sit in a circle around an instructor.
