Monthly Percussion Group
This is an exciting new class I will be running once a month - for children in Key Stage 2 and above.
It is a group 45 minute lesson on a weekday evening and costs £7.
This is a good opportunity for children to learn more about percussion instruments – Including African and Latin Drums – and to explore different rhythms. There is a primary focus on ‘ensemble’ playing – i.e. group drumming. Playing the drums with others is a good skill to develop – and is also great fun!
These classes develop the children’s rhythm and drumming skills – alongside giving them the opportunity to play the drums and percussion with others and to come up with their own rhythms and “songs”.
This will also develop their listening skills; their ability to work together as a team; their communication skills; concentration; social skills; and hopefully increase their enthusiasm for, and enjoyment of, rhythm and music.
The classes are something that would be suitable for children with drumming experience – for example those who already are learning the drum kit; and is also accessible to those who haven’t done anything like this before.
