Weekly classes
Beginner’s class - $7 (one hour)
Saturday night class - $10 (two hours)
Both classes are open to all ages: children and adults. Typically, classes are attended by adults.
You are welcome to come as often as you like. You do not need to prepay or sign up for a series.
Simply send an email (or phone call) to preregister on the weeks you'd like to come.
You may borrow a drum during class (or bring an instrument of your own).
If you are a beginner, we strongly recommend that you attend at least one beginner’s class before you attend a Saturday night class. If the Beginner’s class does not fit into your schedule, another option is to set up a 1:1 lesson with Rose at a time that is convenient for you. There is more info on the “Lessons” page of this website.
When is the beginner’s class? I am in the process of asking people which day and time would be best. Currently, we have three people signed up and have agreed to Tuesdays, 7-8pm, starting August 10th. If more people sign up and a different day is okay for everyone, this plan may change.
What is the difference between the two classes? In the Beginner’s class we will learn how to play the djembe and how to read music using the "Gun godo pata" method of notation. The Saturday night class learns at a faster pace, the rhythms are more complex, and singing is encouraged. Below is more about the Saturday night class.
