The Percussion Workout is a highly experiential music & rhythm-based teaming intervention that promotes clear and open communication and effective collaboration. By engaging in this community-based activity, participants gain a visceral understanding of collaboration as a process, which in turn enhances their sense of belonging in the organisation / team and a feeling of ‘Ubuntu’ or oneness with each other.
PROCESS OF THE WORKSHOP
The workshop requires a minimum of 2 hours (includes the debrief & reflection around the key takeaways) in addition to a minimum of 60 mins setup time.
- Participants are organized into smaller teams, wherein members of each team play a specific instrument.
- A facilitator introduces basic rhythm and percussion techniques, setting the foundation for each team and the larger group’s collective performance.
- The larger group initially produces what is known as ‘cacophony’.
- As the teams practice they begin to synchronize their individual rhythms to achieve a unified sound.
- The teams then play in sync with each other to reach a crescendo and experience a feeling of ‘oneness’
- Participants reflect on the experience and discuss key learnings from the process such as the importance of individual contribution, contribution within and across teams, the role of communication, and collaboration in producing a unified rhythm.
