Remo Helps Unite in Support of Arts Education and "Rock the Rhythm, Beat the Odds"
By: Sue Kincade | May 14, 2012
An entire school district is drumming, clapping, singing, and stomping together to demonstrate how arts in education can support team building, anti-bullying, positive risk taking, and help to build better social and emotional skills. REMO Inc. trained and sent out a team of drum circle facilitators to deliver a hybrid of the research-based drumming program, Beat the Odds, to Sixth and Seventh grade students in the Santa Clarita Valley School Districts near Los Angeles, California. The Beat the Odds program has proven to be a viable model for bringing about positive behavioral changes in students and more importantly, has succeeded in being a useful tool for helping kids stay in school. Mike DeMenno, Remo facilitator explains, "This program gets the kids loosened up to get to know each other with no bullying. They accept each other and start being creative together." Remo's trained facilitators will have visited 608 classrooms in 5 school districts training 7,200 students.
The culmination of this nearly year-long endeavor takes place May 18, 2012, on the field of College of the Canyon's Cougar Stadium. Called "Rock the Rhythm, Beat the Odds," the event celebrates a unique partnership between the Santa Clarita Performing Arts Center, Remo, Inc., the teachers and administrators of all five school districts, as well as local businesses and individuals, all of whom are dedicated to publicizing and supporting the need for sustained arts programming for each and every student of Santa Clarita - from Kindergarten through the 12th Grade. "Rock the Rhythm, Beat the Odds" will bring together 7,200 Sixth and Seventh Graders and 3,000-4,000 Community Members to attempt to set a new Guinness Record for the World's Largest Drum Circle.
The students will be led in their world-record attempt by legendary drummer Mickey Hart, of the Grateful Dead, as well as Remo Belli, founder and CEO of Remo, Inc., a Santa Clarita-based drum and drumhead manufacturer, plus some popular professional drummers. "This kind of event is inclusive, not exclusive, and meant to enhance the community," said Hart. "I strongly urge the community to get involved because it's really for their benefit."
Rock the Rhythm, Beat the Odds has launched a web site (www.rocktherhythm.org) showcasing a countdown clock timed to zero out at 10:30 AM on the day of the event, along with links to the latest project news, information on participating organizations, and the "Video of the Day."

Beat the Odds
Launched at UCLArts and Healing, Beat the Odds is a drum circle-based activity that seeks to maximize creative expression while building social and emotional skills, emphasizing the process of learning over performance. UCLA researchers have shown that Beat the Odds can significantly improve a spectrum of behavior problems in children, including inattention, withdrawn/depression, posttraumatic stress, anxiety, attention deficit/hyperactivity, oppositional defiance, and sluggish cognitive tempo. It is inclusive, culturally relevant, and does not bear the stigma of therapy. www.uclartsandhealing.net/training.aspx
