Rhythm in the Round Drum Circles: In-the-moment percussion music created by adults and children of all ages and abilities. Drum circle magic that happens when we get together with instruments and trust that the music we create will be good and fun!
    Since a few months after dawn on Jan. 1, 2000, Heather Poyner has guided people ages 2-102 in the creation of this music and this fun--at Girl Scout camps, public and charter schools and Adult Daycare facilities and private parties throughout southeastern Wisconsin and northern Illinois.
    As a rhythm facilitator Heather shares her enthusiasm for community drumming: a passion for uniting people with their "inner drummer" as they connect with others in drum circle settings. As you navigate the pages of this website you will discover opportunities for adding some new rhythms to your life. Enjoy!
