DROM BEYOND DRUMMING

Thank you again for another AWESOME DROM session! You were perfect!! The session was well received by our students. Lots of positive feedback, you rocked again! Thank you again Val. You are truly an expert in your field!

I’d say your field is really unique. You are certainly mental health and wellness, with a big measure of pure energy, with a cup of resiliency, a nice hearty dash of spice, and a pound of passion for learning. You are a true powerhouse of making us all feel good, and you help us put things into perspective.

I thoroughly enjoyed the drumming experience last night. I honestly didn't know what to expect but it was a fabulous combination of exercise, fun and meditation and the time just flew! You did a wonderful job of creating a safe and energetic environment that allowed us all to relax and immerse ourselves into the experience. Your enthusiasm and professionalism gave us the confidence to try new moves and shake off any inhibitions.

I just wanted to express how incredibly inspiring your workshop was. Your energy is truly infectious.  Thank you so much for an amazing workshop! Thank you for the great experience. We all loved it! I already passed on your business card to my directors!

Participating in a DRŌM class, is an experience unlike any other available within Kitchener/Waterloo. As an avid "fitness class" participant, I am constantly looking for a cardio based endurance workout, however find myself neglecting the time for meditation and self-reflection. Drumming with Val allows both disciplines of my workout to be targeting at once. Not only does the fast paced movements of the dance-like- choreo of drumming quicken the heart rate and activate muscle movement, the mental therapy of keeping with the beat and hearing the drum clears my mind of my worries and everyday stress and leaves only space for fun, rhythm and focus on the movement and sound. Val is so welcoming to all participants, new or returning; her passion and energy is contagious.
