This course is for drummers who've done at least one beginning series (Contact us if you're a new drummer and we'll get you up to speed!). We'll review all the fundamentals of West African drumming: rhythm awareness, tones and technique, and traditional and contemporary rhythms in the West African style. We don't start new class series that often, so now is a great time to jump in. Free Cycles has large open spaces with great sound and lots of room for drummers.
