Unitarian Universalist Fellowship, 380 Nicolls Road, E. Setauket will present an African Drumming Circle in September. Sharon Pataky and Tracy Hamilton will be teaching a 12- week semester of 1 hour classes (in person and zoom) on Friday evenings from 7 to 8:30 p.m.

There are many benefits from learning the African drum (djembe and dunun). Being in a communal drum circle reduces anxiety, reduces stress and gives one a feeling of connection with those around you. The drum is a vehicle for different kinds of transformation. It can transform an emotional state from one of anger, sadness or conflict  into  a state or feeling of well-being.
