Everything you need to know
Rhythm Fix wants to create a more rhythmically aware culture because drumming together strengthens our community by creating an experience of undeniable belonging. We may meet for the first time, but as we play together in circle, we give ourselves a rhythmical massage, an emotional release and a healing. As membraneous amplifiers, the drum’s acoustic vibration is played by all and the beat affects and holds us all like a mothers heartbeat.
Human made rhythms are not a passive listening but an active participatory in-the-moment experience.
With long term experience in the music industry through performing in contemporary and world music bands, running corporate and community group workshops and school incursions, Martin Phillips formed Rhythm Fix, a Fremantle / Perth based rhythmic events, drumming tuition, drum sales and services provider. As a performer and local facilitator, he has his ear to the beat of Freo (Fremantle); the cultural mecca of WA.
Jam Fix is a drum circle jam using many types of drums and percussion.
It is open to all types of people with physical or mental disabilities.
Support workers sit with their clients and are involved.
The healing and sense of belonging it gives is well documented.
The last 15 minutes is for dancing like The Limbo, conga lines, musical statues and the hokey pokey.
