3 week Beginner drum course with Elliott


3 week combined Drum and Dance course with Elliott and Josie.

In Africa drumming and dance are ONE, the rhythm and movement inseparable, the one
mirrored in the other. These classes are dedicated to understanding this connection.
Half of each class focuses upon the drumming & the other half upon the dance, as
the rhythm is played by Elliott and friends. Participants are encouraged to learn
both or may choose to focus on either side of this union.

3 x 2 hour classes over 4 weeks.
Wed nights May 31st, June 7th and 21st.
AHIMSA house, 26 Horan St. West End.
Cost is $50 for the course.
Drums are available for sale and to borrow by beginners.
