Kalani Das is a Percussionist, Orff-Schulwerk Music
Educator, Board-Certified Music Therapist, and Host at the newly launched Therapeutic Drumming Network. The Therapeutic Drumming Network is a place to share
articles, products, programs, and information related to the use of drumming
and rhythmic experiences to promote positive change. They welcome professional
drummers and percussionists, drumming facilitators, music educators, music
therapists, musical healthcare professionals, music and medicine practitioners,
and anyone who has a passion for music and helping others.
According to Kalani, drumming is considered 'therapeutic'
when it is engaged intentionally as a means of creating a positive physical,
cognitive, emotional, and/or psycho-social outcome. It's not as much about the
specifics of the drumming, as it is about the intention and outcomes. There are
many types of music making that may or may not produce positive physical,
cognitive, or emotional results. Therapeutic Drumming represents those drumming
experiences that ARE aimed at creating
positive outcomes. To learn more about Therapeutic Drumming, read "9 Ways Drumming Can Be Therapeutic" by Kalani Das.
