Testimonials for our Group Drumming Programs:
"What an amazing night of drumming and connecting with each other as well as the rhythms of our breath and heartbeat. John lead us in a breathing technique to the rhythm of the drum and it was incredibly calming. I learned that the health benefits of drumming have been known for thousands of years and now there is scientific research that shows that drumming truly has healing benefits for the body, mind, and soul. As we were lead through various activities, I could feel the connection and energy of our group rise as we all found our own rhythm on our individual drums. I would definitely recommend attending one of John’s drum circles…you will leave with a sense of peace, calm, and joy. Thanks again! Peace, Joy, and Abundance!" Kimberly Gwynne Owner GwynneFit |

"I can't say enough wonderful things about John! Not only is he an inspiring health coach, but he's also an accomplished musician who was able to share his passion and his talent with my guests at the Balanced Life Wellness Retreat that I hosted last weekend. He led the ladies in a drum circle experience that was everything I was hoping for and more! He was able to integrate his knowledge on healthy living into the drumming which created a perfect flow for the attendees - he even reinforced many elements of the retreat without even knowing it - bonus! That solidified my desire to include his drum circles at future events - I've already invited him to be a part of my next retreat! The positive feedback I received from everyone involved was overwhelming and it was indeed a highlight of the weekend!" Leslie Gray Robbins Owner Balanced Life, Healthy You |

"John's passion and heart for the community is so evident in all that he does. Stolfe's Portside Percussion Studio brought a unique, one-of-a-kind experience to the first ever Downtown Kenosha Pop-Up Beer Garden in partnership with Downtown Kenosha Inc., Milwaukee Brewing Company, and WiRed Properties. John's energy and leadership during the drum circles brought individuals, both young and old, together to bond through drumming, building tangible comradery. Everyone wanted to keep playing all night long! It was so special to be part of those authentic community-building moments that John facilitated." Nicole Thomsen Executive Director Downtown Kenosha Inc. |
