EngAGE COO Nancy Goodhart reports: EngAGE Staff met virtually for our twice annual Staff Development Meeting. A Virtual Drum Circle was facilitated by John Fitzgerald, a Village Music Circles Global Certified Trainer. The instructions were to find something that makes a noise, have a seat, and join the beat. This was an opportunity for the team to be participants in a class, which is a reversal of our daily roles with our community residents. Stepping outside our individual comfort zones, being present, and working collaboratively towards a common goal was cathartic and rejuvenating.
Village Music Circles brings rhythm-based events, trainings, and experiences to organizations and communities worldwide. The organization is dedicated to facilitating human potential and building strong communities unified through the joyful experience of music.
