About this Event

Crow Drummers and Crow Dancers Workshops Led by Bret BenRaven

4-6 PM Sundays, April 6th, April 13th, and April 20th

These classes are held in the Armory gymnasium UPSTAIRS from the Procession of the species studio. It can be accessed via Eastside Street or from the Studio in the back.

Detailed Description:

Whether your best drumming is on the kitchen counter waiting for the trash to be taken out or leading a drum circle at a yoga retreat in Costa Rica, there is no funner way to catch the rhythms of the Procession firsthand than by dancing and performing in a home grown Procession Band! Crow Drummers started in 2004 under the direction of Bret BenRaven. It is a community drumming group that plays original compositions in the Hamana style of Guinea West Africa on traditional West African djembe and dunun drums, accompanied by bells and shakers. Some musical experience is good but not necessary. Beginning drummers and dancers are welcome. Instruments are provided. The music is FUN, especially with added Dancers! Costumes can be made at the studio or bring your own. We wear black. For more information, contact David Curts • 360 870 3989

There are also additional workshops specifically for Dancers to prepare for the Procession, to be held on Wednesdays 6-8 pm. See Eventbrite under Crow Dancers. Choreography and dance leadership by Steve Passero
