ABOUT THE FACILITATOR
Myquawn Bailey Sr., MS, is the founder of Drum Iowa, a therapeutic drumming initiative designed to increase awareness of mindful, community-based drumming across Iowa. Based in Waterloo, Iowa, he facilitates drum events for diverse populations, including nursing homes, memory care centers, art centers and community organizations. Originally from Waterloo, Iowa, Myquawn was first exposed to drum culture as a young boy in his family church. Percussion has always moved him and relaxed his spirit. It wasn’t until many years later, during his time in Egypt, that he was introduced to hand drumming. Upon his return to the U.S. in 2015, Myquawn began working with at-risk youth in residential treatment settings. Using his background in psychology and behavioral studies, he developed a behavior-focused curriculum aimed at helping young people understand cognitive distortion through drumming.
