Classes
West African drum classes introduce participants to the rhythms and techniques of traditional West African drumming. Led by experienced instructors, the workshops cover fundamental drumming skills, including hand techniques and rhythms on the djembe and dunun. Participants of all skill levels learn to play together, creating complex polyrhythms and experiencing the communal spirit of West African music. The workshops foster a sense of community, encourage creativity, and provide an energizing and immersive cultural experience.
