Drum Cafe works with world-class facilitators and musicians who demonstrate high performance and multicultural teaming. Each individual brings a unique flair to the stage – and each is truly valued. The Drum Cafe USA family is a diverse group of musicians, consultants, salespeople, project managers, teachers, sound engineers, meeting planners, and logistics experts. Every role relies on the other to maximize the customer experience for their clients. The spirit of ‘Ubuntu’ – the social, economical Bantu philosophy that translates into ‘…I am because you are…’ is their credo both on and off the stage.

In Africa, whenever communities want to mark an occasion or draw others near, whether for births, initiations, funerals, or celebrations, drums can be heard in the distance. The effect of drumming is a synchronization of energy, unity, and a common purpose. Drum Café brings this powerful African technique to modern boardrooms and offers the possibility of participating in an event that promotes the power of communication, synergy, harmony, and team building.

Developed originally as a Diversity & Inclusion Program to unite the multicultural workforce in the new South Africa, Drum Cafe has been committed to diversity training since 1998 and has been a major contributor to the shift towards a culture of collaboration in corporate communities, worldwide. Their interactive, corporate drumming programs quickly bring business people together. Fun team-building activities enlighten employers and employees in a direct experience of inclusion and diversity, breaking barriers, unlocking potential, and effecting change. People become strengthened, not threatened, by their differences. The effect is unforgettable.

The Drum Café is a unique and exciting way to get your employees involved and energized. Talented Djembe drummers, master facilitators, and musicians provide each delegate with a genuine Djembe drum made in West Africa drum to use for the event. Drum Café then transforms a company, division, or work team into a drumming orchestra, teaching participants to listen to one another and to make music together. The non-verbal communication of drumming provides a powerful, unifying message that transcends language, gender, culture, and age barriers.

Drum Café has been used by 130 of the top 400 companies in the world, and with a history of over 2000 events in 19 countries, the Drum Café has the experience to deliver an unforgettable interactive event.

The Drum Café has performed for The Queen of England, Nelson Mandela, and most recently for President George Bush.
