SCHOOLS AND CAMPS
RhythmetriX is an engaging and stimulating means of development for kids of all ages. Watch our videos below and see for yourself!
For Camps:
Enjoy programming for all ages and types of little humanoids! We do small groups (< 50) or large groups (50-1,000) depending on your needs. Prices vary based on size, scope, and distance. Here are some of our offerings:
Interactive Workshops: We emphasize fun and making all kids feel comfortable expressing themselves in a variety of ways. Choose from programs such as: fun on the drums, the energy express, musical mindfulness, or creativity and confidence, or, tell us your vision and we will design something just for you!
Color War Break: What better way to signal the start of color war with a huge set of deep drums pounding all over the camp? Surprised your kids (and staff) with our giant, handmade drums!
Staff Trainings: Need your staff learning how to connect, communicate, or lead more effectively? We've got you covered -- with various modalities, we'd encourage you reach you to teach us your desirable outcomes and we will design a program just for you.
We do singular day sessions or weekly sessions depending on your needs.
Performances: we'll come to your establishment and perform for up to 45 minutes. Performances begin with a brief informative session on our drums before getting right into the action. We have both choreographed and improvised performances involving drums and didgeridoo to provide kids with a musical experience unlike traditional American music but just as fun!!

For Schools:
Interactive Assemblies: we set up a plethora of rhythmic instruments, discuss where they come from, provide the history and cultures behind those instruments, and then engage the kids in a series of rhythmic games. We conclude by having all students stand and join us in some clapping/stomping/chanting activations before bringing them back down to a calm, malleable state to return them back to their teachers. We are a mindfulness company after all!
Interactive Workshops: if you want a more hands-on experience for your kids, we do that too! We can accommodate groups of up to 45 kids at a time. In that time frame, we will demonstrate how drumming works, split the group up into three groups, teach them a rhythm, engage them in ear-training games, and then let them unleash some energy!
Six Week Mindful Drumming Behavioral Modification Programs: teach your kids executive functioning and emotional regulation skills that can translate into the classroom, and do it in a way that's fun, engaging, and easily accessible. We'll not only work with your kids, but empower your teachers to continue after we go. Best part? With surveys before AND after, you can see your METRIX to understand exactly how RhythmetriX helps kids' development!
Professional Development (Applied Mindfulness) for Teachers: learn how to utilize mindfulness to help facilitate a more intentional learning environment. Help deepen your staff's ability to understand and spot behavioral tells and cues to help shift kids towards more desirable behaviors AND reduce teacher stress and burnout!
