http://www.MikeVeny.Com Toca artist Mike Veny having some fun in the studio and demonstrating new djembes with his friends Tristant Marzeski and Brendan Finnegan (fellow Toca artist). In this video, Mike demonstrates a simple idea of how you can have fun with percussion regardless of your skill level or ability. This playful exchange was inspired by Mikes work as a drum circle facilitator, studying Developmental Community Music with Kalani, laughter yoga, and being his childlike self.
Having fun with music is so important. We’ve become a society that takes recreational music making way too seriously. Honoring traditional rhythms and techniques is important for education and childlike playfulness is important for the spirit. Mike, Brendan, and Tristan are clearly having fun.
In addition to the fun they are having, they are demonstrating the Toca 14 inch Freestyle Djembe (Toca’s best selling percussion item), the Toca 14 inch Freestyle Djembe with an extended rim, and the Toca Master Series Djembe. Mike has used both instruments extensively and has found the Freestlye to be flexible enough to fit a variety of musical situations. Best of all, this drum is really light. The Master Series Djembe is simply a work of art. The dense wood is hand carved and the drum has a crystal clear tone, regardless of where you play on it. As always, Toca succeeded in making instruments that sound great and looks great.
Both of these djembes have become an important part of Mike’s sound as drummer. He uses Freestyle djembe for most performances and recordings, and brings out the Master Series djembe on special occasions. Both instruments bring him much happiness.

Prostate Cancer: The Prostate Exam Stigma Among Men Of Color
In this informative video, patient advocate Mike Veny sits down with Tyrone Brewer, President of US Oncology for Johnson & Johnson Innovative Medicine division, to discuss the crucial issue of prostate cancer among men of color.

Youth & Children’s Mental Health Speaker: ANGRY CHILD OUTBURSTS!

http://www.TransformingStigma.com In this video, mental health speaker Mike Veny answers questions about being a child and having angry outbursts. He reminds us that sometimes, their is NOTHING that you can do for someone when they are in a bad place. However, a long term commitment to therapy is essential for helping youth and children in crisis.
When it comes to children’s mental health, more services, especially support systems of care, are available than ever before, but children still aren’t getting all the help that they need. More effort still needs to be put forth regarding children’s mental health awareness.
According to that National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI), 4 million youth struggle with serious mental health challenges that increase problems at home, school, with peers, and overall development. 21 percent of children between the ages of 9 and 17 have a diagnosable mental health or addictive challenge that will cause them difficulties at some level. Of that 21 percent, only 4 percent get help. Left untreated, these mental health issues become significantly worse as children get older.
50 percent of the lifetime cases of mental health challenges begin by age 14. Regardless of effective treatment, people wait a long time (many years) between the first sign of a problem and when they receive treatment. Sometimes this is due to stigma. Sometimes this is due to a lack of resources. Sometimes it’s a combination of the two.
Mike Veny is a youth and children’s mental health speaker who speaks at conferences and events throughout the world to raise awareness about children’s mental health. He’s extremely passionate about speaking at events during children’s mental health awareness week (and month). He enjoys helping young people who were like him. Growing up is tough. Growing up with additional challenges is even tougher.
