What’s the sound of your team?
Music and specifically Rhythm is a powerful tool to improve communication, collaboration and connection. Making music together enhances interaction & fun and boosts collective thinking. The TALKDRUMS TEAM PROGRAM offers exciting modules with positive impact.
We successfully designed tailored training sessions around themes like Teambuilding, Transition, Diversity & Inclusion. Wether your team is new, has gone through changes or is part of an organization in transition, the TalkDrums Team Sessions are helpful to (re)gain focus and coherence.
The percussive teambuilding workshop
The core of Franc auf dem Brinke’s TalkDrums interventions is the Percussive Teambuilding Workshop (PWT). Using body sounds and Afro- Brazilian percussion instruments — various drums, shakers, and bells — we work through rhythmic exercises towards performing a genuine, tradition-based composition.
This interactive session is a perfect icebreaker, shifting the participants’ mindset in a short time from head to heart, from thinking to feeling. To bring the music to life, you need to be able to immerse yourself in the group and accept becoming a part of it — a cog in the bigger whole.
The result can be quite surprising and remarkable, releasing also a great deal of energy. Yet the true gain lies in the process. In fact, we create a pathway that helps every individual to more easily find their way to the collectiveness of the team.
Modular Programs, Tailored to Your Team
Besides the PTW our corporate program offers Energizers, 360 Feedback Assessments and Learning Modules. The team programs are carefully composed around modular, customizable exercises. In addition to the interactive music sessions we offer outdoor excursions, masterclasses, and presentations. Each program is carefully tailored to meet with the goals of the client and the needs of the group.

TalkDrums Inspiring Rhythms for Percussive Professionals
