Improve your skills and explore your creativity!
Drummers often hail from the 'African Drumming' camp with its traditional rhythms and specific rules of playing, or the 'Jamming' camp, with its freedom of expression and trance vibe ...
Sarah's African Drum Circles bring you the best of both - the beautiful rhythms of the West African Djembé and a deep dive into freestyle and meditative drumming.
As a more advanced player, you'll know that drumming is a hugely uplifting activity with an array of health benefits for body, mind & soul. All drumming is wonderful for the brain, but improvising gives us extra layers of connectivity and creativity.
These sessions will improve your playing, give you a wide repertoire of traditional rhythms to call on, and also build your confidence with group improvisation. You'll gain skills to
express yourself more and the joy of being part of an exhilarating sound!
Welcome to an exhilarating journey!
Build your Skills * Rhythms for Grooving * Ways into Creative Drumming
*NB. Experience Needed! These sessions are for people who know all the basics and pick up rhythms quickly. Most who join this group have been playing for a few years. If you are particularly musical and have the essential foundations, do join us, or contact Sarah to check if this is for you - Sarah@primalsound.uk
