Drumming and Dancing in a group bring to each individual heightened feelings of self-regard and confidence, inner balance and Joy - as well as feelings of oneness and Harmony with the group.  Barriers are broken and individuals sharing these feelings create a solid Group Unity - a Spirit of True Community with each person having a stronger sense of self. The Djembe is from the Family of West African Hand-drums.  The word “Djembe” means “To Bring Together”  - living up to its name the Djembe has become one of the most popular instruments  world- wide for bringing people together to  Drum and Dance.   *Make A Joyful Noise!* is Sue Spencer's endeavor - born out of a desire to encourage Kids of ALL ages (from one to 101!) to come together, share their Rhythms and experience all the benefits and joys of Drumming and Dance!
