Lessons will introduce students to the basics of a rhythmic pattern called “clave”, There are two basic types of clave: son or rumba clave. Most Afro-Cuban styles of music are built around one version of the clave pattern, which is fixed and repeated throughout the song, and forms the foundation for percussionists, as well as the other musicians in the ensemble.

The musical and relaxation aspects of hand drumming may be enjoyed individually or as part of a group with other hand drum students. Explore the language of the drum in our educational and fun learning environment.
