Dolle Communications
is a drum circle facilitation and neurosciences consulting company
located in Orange County, California. We offer corporate drum circles on
team-building and mindfulness, on location drum circles featuring brain wave
entrainment & trance work for personal development, and a variety of health &
wellness drumming programs. Company founder & CEO, Stephen Dolle, also delivers
keynotes on drumming for the
brain, as well as patented DiaCeph hydrocephalus monitoring.
Stephen underwent his initial training under Arthur Hull in 2005, and since pioneered a number of new drumming methods in team-building, brain wave entrainment, rhythm & movement, and mindfulness, accruing over 150 hours of facilitation experience.
Drumming improves movement, coordination, self confidence, communication skill, and mental focus, reduces stress, and makes you feel younger, happier, and healthier. There is extraordinary new neuroscience research in support of drumming and the brain, and Stephen spoke on this at Wright State University. His power point "Engage the Rhythms of your Brain" is now available on Slideshare.net, and in the viewer below. This presentation covers drumming applications in STEAM3 education teaching methods, special education, sensory processing disorders, trance work, and cites benefits in a wide range of health disorders, including, autism, Parkinson's Disease, hydrocephalus, PTSD, post TBI, cancer, diabetes, arthritis, obesity, and aging. As a brain injury & hydrocephalus survivor, Stephen "walks the talk" on drumming and shares his extraordinary story and discoveries by keynote. In addition, he plays in drum ensembles and community drum circles with the Orange County Drum Circle Meetup and Phat Rhythm Section band.
Since 1996, Stephen has been an advocate for the neurological disorder, hydrocephalus, and championed initiatives with the Food & Drug Administration, hydrocephalus organizations, non-profit groups, and now drumming and music therapy organizations. In 1998, he created and patented the first computer-based hydrocephalus monitoring system, the DiaCeph Test. The DiaCeph Test could run as an app today for a mobile phone. We feature a supporting study on CNS Shunt Selection for Hydrocephalus, combining the DiaCeph Test with research from the University of Heidelberg. Hydrocephalus monitoring & consults are available to individuals with hydrocephalus and problematic CNS shunts.
