TaKeTiNa Rhythm Process



The TaKeTiNa Rhythm Process, developed by Austrian percussionist Reinhard Flatischler, is a musical, meditative group process for people who want to develop their awareness of rhythm. In a TaKeTiNa process, there are three different rhythmic layers -- represented by the voice, claps, and steps -- that continue simultaneously. Vocalization and clap rhythms, accompanied by the berimbau, constantly change while the steps, supported by a surdo drum, remain the same. The surdo stabilizes the basic rhythm of the steps, while call-and-response singing serves to destabilize and re-stabilze the rhythmic movements. In this process, the simultaneity of stabilization and destabilization creates a disturbance that allows participants to repeatedly fall out, and then fall back into rhythm.[1] Participants are guided into the experience of rhythm archetypes, rhythmic images anchored deep in human consciousness.[2][3] According to Flatischler, the support of the group allows the individual participant to go into his or her own process, building deep musical and personal trust.[4]

TaKeTiNa is used in academic and clinical settings and in corporate trainings worldwide.[5]
