The Natural Musicians Playbook

Hi, Chris Holland here...

The Natural Musicians is a range of activities and experiences that were born from the need to enable people to: 

  • Connect with nature and each other in a fun, lyrical, playful way. 

  • Develop heartfelt relationships between people and place

  • Make music, art and movement, inspired by the world outside and the feelings and stories inside.

  • Express wonder

I created this course to help people like you facilitate moments of musical oneness between people, place and the natural world.

Get The NAME DRUMMING CIRCLE, one of the most useful activities from the full course and my book, as well as other inspiring bits and bobs.

If you are not delighted, you may request a full refund, for any reason - no questions asked. You can unsubscribe at any time.

"My mind is blown with so many great ideas!"

Here's what some of the previous participants think of the course:

This is a sample from The Natural Musicians Facilitation Training Courses that encourage...

  • Teambuilding
  • Leadership 
  • Belonging 
  • Creative thinking
  • Listening skills
  • Nature connection
  • Musicality
  • and is a great five minute icebreaker for all facilitators and teachers.

The NM course is a groundbreaking connective training journey that helps people's musical self emerge and transform into a more confident and skilled facilitator. NO instruments required!

So why is this sample £2?

(or for free if you got a special link - lucky you!)

Not everyone values free stuff.

But everyone loves a bargain!

And this is
way more useful than a posh coffee.

£2 gets you The Name Drumming Circle video the I am awake song and few other bits and bobs including a 1 minute Numbers in Nature video I did for BBCEarth 

The Name Drumming Circle is sample 'signature' activity from the Natural Musicians Facilitators Training Courses.

Yes, there is a charge for it... but that is because it has great value - and this work is my living... as much as I love being generous I need to charge for some of it.

The Name Drumming Circle is a most useful 'icebreaker' type musical activity for getting a group into the groove...check it out!

Chris Holland workshops and training in schools

HI, thanks for being interested in what I offer schools in terms of fun day workshops, but more importantly, INSET for teachers... please find out more about all this here:https://www.naturalmusicians.co.uk

I am awake song

Here's a song I wrote new words for based on a song master Drummer Batatunde Olatunji used to sing in the shower - well, that's what I was told, anyway.

Thank you to Cosmo Sheldrake for sharing the song one day in Scotland.

It's such a great song for rousing the energy of a morning...and celebrating the day. I hope you enjoy it. There are many opportunities for adding lyrics and adding harmonies... so improvise too. A favourite of mine is I am awake and I am grateful /ready/ for the day... but you may find your own words as you sing the song... may the muse be with you.
