Steven Schob, MM, is a teacher, writer and performer that believes in the power of music, movement, drumming and stories for cultural change. With a masters degree in percussion performance, Steven has over a decade of experience crafting programs for schools and organizations looking for innovative techniques in healthy living, shaping brains, community building, and professional development through music. In 2010, he created his company, Collective Rhythm, that currently provides music services to educational institutions, community groups, and companies.

As an internationally touring performer he has played in England, Scotland, Brazil and Canada with the likes of Michael W. Smith and the Fountain City Brass Band. He currently has two books in the works that will be published in 2016.

Steve is a big friend of our show and I couldn't have more respect for the guy. He is a wonderfully positive force for good in the world and he brings that power to leading super fun groups and getting sh!# done! I'm excited that he agreed to be on the show and can't wait for you guys to hear this conversation.
