A Drum Circle Facilitator Is...
A drum circle facilitator is an individual who makes this interactive music making experience "easier" for the participants. A facilitator creates a space for the expression of community by empowering the group of participants with a safe and fun atmosphere and tools for expression, enabling them with technique and encouraging them with fun. Trained professional facilitators recognize the need for empowering each individual as the consciousness of the entire group evolves into a musical composition. Drum circle facilitators act in service to the group, helping individuals achieve greater personal potential, shared joy, and interdependent group dynamics. A facilitator develops a rapport with the participants and through various techniques is able to assist the music into various compositions unique to the population.

Klint has been playing music all of his life. As he grew up, he would play just about anything he could get his hands on. The instruments ranged from piano to drums to harp to accordion to udu clay pots to kalimba.
His music comes to him because he feels inspired to write. "It's like someone else is using me as a tool. I feel like there is some other force that flows through me." Inspiration can come at any time. Sometimes he will be driving his car and has to pull over so he can write down the music while it is fresh in his mind.
