The International Native American Flute Association:
Excerpt from INAFA - Flute Circle gatherings provide a sense of connection that results in everyone growing musically, from the beginner to the recording artist. People feel a spiritual bond created by the music of the flute. It is much like the camaraderie that develops at a flute workshop. In a Flute Circle, a type of flute family develops. Often times, one learns more through the people connection than through reading books or listening to tapes and CDs. Ultimately, the greatest teacher is still the flute itself, but when one is in a rut or when one ís playing is stuck on a plateau, nothing gives an individual a greater boost than to spend time with other flute players.
