-Drawing inspiration from traditional west African djembe rhythms, we will learn and explore a variety of drum patterns, create some of our own rhythms, experiment with various techniques, do some team activities, enjoy some improv, and share the JOY of drumming and creative self-expression!
-We will do a little learning, a little practicing, a little free jamming, and have a whole lot of fun!
-Beginners or experienced drummers will enjoy this workshop. Suitable for adults or children age 12 and up.
-Deb’s casual facilitation style makes drumming easy, enjoyable for all. The goal is to share the JOY of rhythm.
-Drums are avail for those without their own djembe.* Limited quantity, please reserve when registering.
-Group Hand Drumming is so much more than making music! A hand drumming circle offers a place for connection, community, co-creativity, communication beyond words, and a space where we can share the joy of rhythm.
