  • "I am grateful for a community in which the lines between giving and receiving often dissolve, and in which shared effort and joyful imperfection abound. The people I have come to know through WDC, both individually and collectively, are a blessing that make me smile as I write. Thanks and Woka!"

    - Dianna D.

  • “The WDC is an incredibly supportive community. I love the challenge of learning new songs and learning about the music of so many different cultures and countries. There are also opportunities to make your own instruments!”

    Alyssa M

  • "I discovered Bettie’s beginner drum class through Meetup. It has been a wonderful experience for me. Drumming engages my brain and body, and I appreciate its potential for meditative experience. The community and sisterhood I found in Women Who Groove has been a very happy bonus!"

    Girja P.

  • “For over 30 years, the WDC has enjoyed a succession of exceptionally talented women as instructors and participants offering so much more than just learning to drum. Participants are part of a community, learning to lead and follow, work as collaborative members of an ensemble, and give back to our broader community through support of community organizations and fundraisers for significant social and medical causes.”

    Mary Z

  • “When I am drumming with the group I get into ‘Flow’; the experience is energizing physically and mentally.”

    Anna A

  • “The Women’s Drum Center has so many drums that a person can begin without having to spend any money to buy instruments! And people can try out different types of drums, music and group styles.”

    Allie B

  • "I watched my grandmother drum in a polka band growing up. She played at marathons and other local events in the community. She was always so happy and I will always remember that. It brings me so much joy that I can keep her drumming spirit alive for another generation!”

    Jeanie R

  • "Finding the Women's Drum Center has been life changing for me. Whenever I have a bad day or don't really feel like coming to class, I do and I always leave feeling lifted, loved and nurtured by all the women in our drumming circle. "
