Receiving that news, completely broke me. I was speechless, broken, hopeless, and confused. However, as soon as I heard the sound of the drums it felt like my mind completely left those thoughts behind and I was not worrying about the future but about the present. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Tryon Theatre may have no been as full as it should&#8217;ve been but the performers had a way of getting single person in that theatre to participate. I find it amazing that the performers had a way of getting a room full of people with worries and doubts to laugh. That is the magic of art, that despite the chaos occurring in the world; art is the one thing that can shift our minds to focus on the beauty of things. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"554\" height=\"739\" src=\"https:\/\/offtheshelfandonline.blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/0-1.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-17365\" srcset=\"https:\/\/teaching-without-borders.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/0-1.jpeg 554w, https:\/\/teaching-without-borders.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/0-1-225x300.jpeg 225w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 554px) 100vw, 554px\" \/><figcaption>Drum Tao, a performance that makes you feel like you are on stage with the rest of the performers. <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Japanese Martial Art of drumming and dance that even has you become part of the show!
