Drums Alive is the most fun you will ever have getting fit. It’s a great mix of rhythm, dance, cardio, left-right brain integration and laughter. Central Vancouver Island is one of the only places west of the Rockies in Canada to offer Drums Alive classes. Drums Alive, which was created in Germany by Carrie Ekins, combines aerobic dance with drumming in a unique and fun way. The continuous movement and rhythmic flow engages the entire body and brain.
The physiological and psychological benefits of taking Drums Alive classes are numerous:
Drums Alive enhances your health, improves memory and brainpower by using cross-coordinated movements and makes you happy: It's movement therapy with music, sound and dance that is perfect training for the whole body!
Monica Hofer is your local facilitator of rhythm-based events on Central Vancouver Island; she facilitates Drums Alive classes and also teaches African Drumming to all levels and is a certified instructor in HealthRhythms.
All you need to bring to class is your own fitness ball, inflated to a minimum diameter of 55 cm (60 - 65 preferable). Drumsticks and ball stands will be provided. All fitness levels welcome!
