Drumming for Families
Courses and workshops until spring 2009
Die Herausforderung besteht darin, wie es ein Künstler bleiben kann, wenn es aufwächst.»
(Pablo Picasso)
Children get even more out of drumming when they attend a course with their parents
or primary care givers. In such a playful context, children experience regular practice
not as one of those chores children are asked to do, but as a joyful activity they
engage in with adults.
The family courses teach the history, basics and techniques of drumming. Speech
and clapping games help to develop the rhythmic sense of children and adults alike.
Soon we will be playing simple, but powerful rhythms as an ensemble on African and
Cuban drums as well as on small percussion instruments. No prior knowledge is necessary
for these courses - instruments are available. (Minimum age is 8-10 years).
We arrange private lessons as well as lessons for groups at alternative times -
give us a call or e-mail us to discuss the options. For more details about prices
and teaching arrangements, see 'prices' in the navigation.
