Class Description

Basic Skills - Ian Dickau

This course was created for the

beginner drummer in mind, no

experience necessary. We focus

our attention on djembe tech-

nique and the sounds that can be

created from the drum. Come

and learn proper posture, simple

rhythms, and a Nigerian drum

language. During this 8 weeks

we move at a pace that ensures

confidence when drumming in a

circle, thus creating a firm foun-

dation for movement into

Djembe 1. All drums supplied

during class time.

Djembe 1 - Ian Dickau

This course is the natural step-

ping stone from “Basic Skills”.

Using the Nigerian drum lan-

guage we are able to add to our

rhythmic library as we learn of

down beat, up beat and working

in 4/4 time. Other instruments

from West Africa such as Dun-

dun and Shekere are introduced

into this course.

Class Description

Djembe 2 - Andie Shaffer/

Trudy Hipwell

This course is for the drummer

who is looking for the chal-

lenge of an increased rhythm

library as well as delving into

more 6/8 rhythms, multi dun-

dun parts and song. Bells and

shekeres are incorporated into

this class to give you the feel of

the West African Village.

Djembe 3/4 -Trudy Hipwell

Participants will learn drum en-

semble rhythms with traditional

West African songs, as well as

master drum cues that commu-

nicate with the drummers to

make transitions that can also

be incorporated with dance ac-

companiment.
