Drumming Our Prayers: Celebrating and Meditating Through Rhythm

  • West End Presbyterian Church 165 West 105th Street, 3rd Floor New York, NY USA (map)

Following Kohenet Soul Spa @ Romemu

Drums are powerful tools of group celebration and ecstatic meditation. The Bible reveals that the sound of drumming, the blowing of rams’ horns (shofar), cymbals, chanting and dancing were embodied ways our ancestors celebrated the drama of Spirit. Romemu sacred drummer and veteran Jewish educator Shoshana Jedwab, will lead us with drums and shakers in familiar prayers and in her own compositions. Bring a drum or shaker if you have one; otherwise one will be provided. 

Members: $20 / Non-members: $25
