What is Beatwell?
Much More Than a Drum Circle
The drums bring people together. What happens next is what Beatwell is really about.
Beatwell creates engaging team building, wellness, and leadership workshops that bring professional communities together through shared experience.
Every participant receives a drum or percussion instrument. No musical experience is required. Guided activities make it easy for everyone to participate with confidence, creating moments of connection, communication, and collaboration within minutes.
Along the way, participants experience teamwork, leadership, mindfulness, and well-being in real time. Facilitated reflection helps transform those moments into practical insights they can carry back to their work, their teams, and their everyday interactions.
Beatwell is created and facilitated by Jordan Goodman, a licensed psychotherapist, professional musician, speaker, and former communications leader within a Fortune 500 media company. For nearly two decades, he has helped people connect, communicate, and create through shared experiences.
Why Does it Work?
People rarely change because they were told something.
They change because they experienced something.
Beatwell combines rhythm, reflection, and conversation to create shared experiences that engage people intellectually, socially, emotionally, and physically. Instead of simply talking about communication, trust, or leadership, participants experience them together in real time.
Research in psychology, neuroscience, music, and learning helps explain why these experiences are so memorable. But participants don’t need to understand the science to feel the difference. They simply experience it.
What People Leave With
Shared experiences have a way of changing how people work together. Here’s where those changes often begin.
Team Building
Stronger Connection & Collaboration
Connection begins the moment people create something together. Beatwell experiences are fun, accessible, and designed for everyone. No musical experience required. Every participant has an opportunity to contribute, be heard, and support the success of the group. People leave feeling more connected to themselves, one another, and the organization.
Improved Communication
Great teams don’t just communicate more; they communicate better. Through rhythm, shared challenges, and guided reflection, participants strengthen active listening, nonverbal communication, adaptability, and trust. Every activity reinforces the value of individual contribution in service of a shared goal.
Increased Engagement, Morale & Retention
People are more engaged when they feel connected to their work and the people around them. Research suggests group drumming can improve morale, strengthen workplace relationships, and support employee retention. Beatwell creates experiences that remind people why they enjoy working together in the first place.
Well-Being
Stress Reduction
Stress changes the way we think, communicate, and perform. Research has shown that group drumming can reduce cortisol, the body’s primary stress hormone. Alongside rhythmic music-making, participants learn simple breathing and mindfulness techniques they can use long after the workshop ends.
Greater Presence & Mindfulness
Mindfulness isn’t about clearing your mind. It’s about learning to pay attention with greater awareness and intention. Throughout every Beatwell experience, participants practice becoming more present with themselves, one another, and the moment, while supporting focus, emotional regulation, resilience, and clearer decision-making.
Improved Mood & Well-Being
Music has a unique ability to shift how we feel. Research suggests group drumming can improve mood while reducing symptoms of stress and anxiety. Beatwell workshops create space to laugh, recharge, connect, and return to work with renewed energy.
Leadership
More Effective Communication
Leadership begins with listening. Beatwell experiences strengthen active listening, nonverbal communication, emotional awareness, and the ability to navigate evolving group dynamics. Guided discussion helps teams translate what they experience together into everyday leadership and workplace communication.
Adaptive Problem-Solving
Organizations are living systems. Like music, they require people to listen, adapt, and respond in real time. Beatwell experiences strengthen creative problem-solving, collaboration, flexibility, and the confidence to navigate change together.
Emotional Intelligence in Action
Emotional intelligence isn’t just something we understand; it’s something we practice. Participants strengthen self-awareness, emotional regulation, empathy, and relationship-building through shared experiences that require attention, collaboration, and trust. The result is healthier teams and more human leadership.
