UK DRUM WORKSHOPS

If you type 'drumming workshop uk' into Google, this page comes up in the number 1 position. To list your drumming workshop on here and GET MORE PEOPLE COMING TO YOUR GROUP, please drop us an email with your details. A listing is £8 per month.

Most of the group spend their time travelling around Europe or working at the Music and Cultural School in The Gambia so we don’t provide any dedicated drum workshops in the UK at present. Some of the tutors, however, do sometimes teach at an existing drum group; the details of which are listed below (get in touch with the named contact for details of who might be teaching on a particular date):

DRUM WORKSHOP INFORMATION SNIPPETS

African Drumming workshops are aimed at learning and using all different cultures of African traditional music to create different rhythms and beats through drumming and song.

  • Traditional African music creates an atmosphere of warmth, a closeness and a completely different relationship between people.

  • African drumming is fun, energising and inspirational to people of different ages, backgrounds and abilities.

  • Playing the djembe drums improves co-ordination and motor skills.  It also requires concentration and focus to learn the different drum beats.

  • African drumming encourages creativity and self expression.  Drumming workshops help to reassure people of their abilities and talents and promotes self-confidence and a feeling of well-being and relaxation.

  • Drumming together and creating music as a group encourages bonding within the group and makes people much more appreciative of each other. It creates a feeling of belonging and togetherness within the group.

  • The workshops also provide an appreciation of cultural diversity both locally and globally.
