ABOUT
KLITSGRAS DRUMMING CIRCLE — WHERE PEOPLE COME TO DRUM!
A NIGHT OF RHYTHM, CONNECTION & GOOD VIBRATIONS
Looking for something different to do in Pretoria? Come experience the energy of a real community drumming circle at Klitsgras Drumming in Tierpoort, Pretoria!
Founded in 1999 by musician and drummer Andries Bruyns, Klitsgras is a place where music brings people together, strangers become friends, and everyone has a place in the circle.
Whether you're an experienced drummer or have never touched a drum before, you're welcome here. Our experienced facilitators guide the circle, helping everyone find their rhythm and become part of something bigger.
NO EXPERIENCE NEEDED. JUST BRING YOURSELF!
Our interactive public drumming circle starts at 18:00 with a short tutorial, followed by an evening of shared rhythms, powerful beats and collective energy.
No stage separating you from the music. No pressure to perform. Just people coming together to drum, connect and enjoy the moment.
GUIDED MUSIC & MOVEMENT JOURNEY
