Where rhythm meets community. A free and open gathering for anyone who wants to feel more connected — to people, to place, and to something larger than their daily routine.
After years in the corporate world, Seb asked a simple question: is the bar really the best we can do? Drinks. Small talk. Nothing that stuck. He wanted something health-driven — genuine connection, real joy, without the performance pressure.
Rhythm was the answer. A drum circle is a safe space where people show up as themselves, create something together, and leave genuinely lighter. The joy is immediate. The connections last.
Rhythms by the Sea is that same experience brought to the Fundy Shore — open to everyone. No experience needed. Just people, percussion, and the kind of connection that happens when a group finds its rhythm.
From casual beach sessions to full festival stages, Rhythms by the Sea takes many shapes. Here's where you'll find us.
Informal, open-circle rhythm gatherings on the shores of St. Andrews and the Fundy region. Show up, grab an instrument, and join in. No agenda. No schedule. Just rhythm and the sound of the ocean.
Aluna participates in local festivals and community events throughout New Brunswick, bringing live drum circles to markets, art festivals, cultural events, and seasonal celebrations across the Maritimes.
Structured rhythm sessions for schools, community centres, seniors' homes, social service organizations, and Indigenous community groups throughout New Brunswick. Accessible pricing, inclusive design.
Sign up to hear about upcoming community sessions, beach circles, festival appearances, and new events throughout New Brunswick.
Aluna runs facilitated rhythm programs for organizations — the kind that make the business case to HR directors and come with an ROI report. Rhythms by the Sea is the same philosophy, different context: community spaces, accessible pricing, open to anyone.
Both exist because we believe rhythm is not a luxury. It's a fundamental human need — and access to it shouldn't be limited to organizations with a training budget.
Whether you're in St. Andrews, Fredericton, or anywhere in between — there's a seat in the circle for you.
