Life can sometimes feel overwhelming, but what if you could find a space to let go, connect, and heal through music, movement, and mindfulness? That’s exactly what Katumba’s Beginners Drumming & Movement Sessions are all about.

We’ve created these sessions as a welcoming place for anyone who wants to reconnect with themselves and others, especially during a time when our communities have faced challenges like racism, Islamophobia, and xenophobia.

More than just drumming, these sessions celebrate culture, creativity, and shared humanity—all rooted in the rich traditions of Afro-Brazilian-Indigenous practices.

What’s Special About These Sessions?

Led by our incredible Co-Founder Juliana (@julianabrazilmovement), these sessions are a mix of:

• • • • Drumming Made Easy: Get hands-on with Afro-Brazilian drumming that’s uplifting, fun, and open to all. No experience needed!
      • Movement to Feel Good: Explore simple, guided movements to connect with your body and release stress.
      • Mindfulness for Everyday Life: Learn grounding techniques to bring calm and clarity to your mind.
      • Cultural Stories: Dive into the traditions and stories behind the Afro-Indigenous roots that inspire everything we do.
