LIVING & LEARNING


own outside the drone rhythm and be a butterfly.” This is easier said than done. So I do this – half the group becomes the drones and to the other half I say “Follow me and fly” – and I drum out a different rhythm from that of the drones and, by listening and watching my hand movements (most people, regretfully, are watchers rather than listeners, including me), they follow me. When all are with me I change the rhythm and they follow. By using this technique I can get totally novice drummers to become butterflies albeit with my holding a steadying hand beneath them lest they teeter!! The beauty of this style of drumming


is that it is inclusive right from the start. If the rhythm chosen is too complex, I provide an easier one so that that person is still part of it. If it is too easy, then there is the scope to become a sole drone or to butterfly. End result... music, and everyone getting into the groove. So, don't be daunted or intimidated,


become involved. Let the beat in your heart be that of the drum. Live life and flutter through the garden of life with absolute freedom, like butterflies!!!


Builder, gardener, retailer, importer, yoga devotee, vegan and a hundred other things begin to define me. Some sustain me at an earthly level, others like drumming are a passion that


sustains the essential me.
