As I explain in this clip, group drumming helps you turn off your conscious mind and access a deeper state. It's an ancient cultural practice for a reason. It just works.

About this collection
You don't need a single ounce of musical experience to join us. We provide all the professional Djembes, and our circles are designed to help you switch off your conscious mind rather than perform perfectly. If you can tap your hand on a surface, you are already qualified to be part of the circle.
Why Join a Community Drum Circle?
Drumming in a group is one of the oldest human practices. It acts as a powerful stress-buster, allowing you to bypass your internal chatter and tap into something deeper. At our sessions, we focus on 'Wassa Wassa', which means 'Happy Happy'. It is about letting go, building community, and finding your sewa (joy).
What Happens at a Session?
- No Skills Required: Whether you are 8 or 81, everyone is welcome. We do not teach music theory; we facilitate a flow.
- Inclusive Atmosphere: You will see families, students, and professionals all drumming together. We break down the barriers through collective rhythm.
- Expert Facilitation: While the session feels loose and fun, it is guided by professionals who ensure the rhythm stays unified and accessible.
Where We Drum
We regularly host these sessions at Artsphere in Kalyani Nagar, Pune. Our setups vary from indoor studios for intimate, meditative experiences to open-air farm venues when we want to get closer to nature. Everything is provided—you just need to show up ready to participate.

Taal Inc
I am Varun, and I started Taal Inc because I believe rhythm is the fastest way to switch off your brain and connect with the person next to you. My guru Mamady Keïta taught me that the djembe knows no borders, and I am here to make sure you experience that same joy, whether you have drummed before or not.
