Hands-On! Drumming® Events
Communicating Cooperating Celebrating Through Rhythm™
For thousands of years people worldwide have drummed together to energize minds and bodies, strengthen community bonds, reinforce common values and goals, and to celebrate important events!
Recent clinical studies have also conclusively documented some of the many physical, mental & emotional benefits of purpose-driven drumming.
Today's fast-paced, demanding work environment presents many challenges for corporate organizations and their employees. Stress, a lack of communication and cooperation skills, low morale and motivation, fear of failure and a general mood of insecurity can prevent people, and groups, from realizing their full potential and achieving their goals.
Jim Greiner is an internationally acclaimed percussionist, community drumming leader and inspirational speaker. He has created award-winning, cutting-edge rhythm based programs that have, since ****, consistently produced lasting solutions to these challenges for corporate groups and conferences of all types and sizes, as well as for community groups and private events.
"Jim Greiner is one of the pioneers of community drumming. His work with corporate, community, school and therapeutic groups is acclaimed worldwide."
-Drum! Magazine
Jim's interactive programs are based on over three decades of his worldwide drumming and teaching experiences, including two years in Africa, where he was profoundly moved by the way people use rhythm to uplift and unify themselves.
