Vocal Toning is different from traditional chanting, as it allows for more flexibility and creativity. If you feel that it is hard to drum and sing at the same time, you may find that vocal toning is easier than singing. Instead of using words we use tones (such as om, ah, hey). Vocal Toning is about releasing. Toning in a circle with others is empowering. You will feel inspired by the others in the group. Using tones instead of words allows the mind to relax and take a rest from thinking. This allows the brain to be refreshed. After each session, you will find yourself feeling totally energized! The combination of vocalizing and drumming has a dramatic effect on your mind and body. If doing both at the same time is difficult, an option is to alternate. With a little practice you may be able to do both simultaneously.
