Join us to learn traditional West African rhythms, technique, and the deeper meanings behind each beat in an interactive class. Together, we’ll explore how drumming builds teamwork, focus, and self- expression while connecting us to African history and community. No experience is required — just a willingness to listen, learn, and feel the rhythm. Each class will include hands-on drumming, group call-and-response, and cultural storytelling that shows how music can heal, unite, and inspire.
