Djembe & Darbuka Student & Teacher
As a rhythm enthusiast and teacher of percussion for over 20 years. I have studied percussion with many of the greats, including Mamady Keita the celebrated Djebefola, Arthur Hull father of the drum circle movement and many others. Being around music and percussion has added immense value to my life, and I do my best to spread my passion and enthusiasm for rhythm and percussion wherever I go. I founded the organisation Drum Jam in 2001 and taught percussion classes to thousands of children in schools around the UK, hundreds of companies called me to do teambuilding with their employees.

The course although it had structure to it, at times it felt like the exercises were being improvised as they go.

Good. It would have been helpful to have had notations for all of the rhythms and also slow speed resources for ALL of the rhythms and teaching sections
