1pm - 4pm West African Djembe Drumming Workshop
Mixed Level, extending the rhythm taught in the morning, but focusing more on breaks & solo phrases; suitable for all levels, although at a faster pace than the morning workshop. Less experienced players may find some solo phrases challenging.
Beginners are recommended to book the All Day ticket option if wanting to continue in the afternoon.
Advanced players are welcome to book for the morning workshop, understanding that the pace will be slower & focused on getting the rhythm grooving.
