Drums Alive: A Dynamic Fitness and Wellness Program
We have introduced a program called Drums Alive which is already having a big impact on our Physical Education classes!
Led by our physical educator who is a certified Drums Alive instructor, this unique and engaging wellness program combines drumming, movement, music, and rhythm to benefit students' physical, cognitive, social, and emotional health.
These classes offer students an opportunity to move to the beat while improving coordination, focus, and self-expression. Designed for all abilities, ensuring every student can participate, Drums Alive has evidence-based and research-backed benefits supporting:
- Brain Health and Cognitive Ability
- Decreases in Stress, Depression, and Anxiety
- Athletic Ability and Reaction Times
- Motor Skills, Behavior, and Social Emotional Health
A group of students recently had their first experience with Drums Alive, learning introductory moves and beats, as well as free drumming where they created their very own movement and drumming patterns.
Drums Alive is a dynamic new addition to our Physical Education curriculum. We look forward to seeing this exciting program grow as we continue to offer our students opportunities for physical activity and development.
