Drumming is the oldest musical activity. Drumming burns more calories in half hour session than cycling, weight lifting and hiking. Recreational playing of drums lowers stress hormones in our body. Research shows that drummers are better able to control their motor functions, possess a higher degree of dexterity, are better at activities that require steady hands, and have the ability to react quickly.
Drummers are truly talented humans, one of the many reasons they've earned National Drummer Day on November 15. With an estimated 3 million or more drummers in the world keeping the music going, this is certainly a day that is worth celebrating!
