In-school Programmes & Corporate Workshops
Get ready to unleash the rhythm within! Our African Drumming Programme is an exciting, high-energy experience designed for kids, teens, and adults—perfect for schools, youth groups, and corporate teams alike. Whether you're looking to inject creativity into the classroom or strengthen bonds in the boardroom, this dynamic workshop brings people together through the universal language of rhythm.
Led by professional educators, participants will dive into the rich cultural world of djembe and dundun drums. No prior experience? No problem! Our sessions are tailored for all abilities, focusing on teamwork, creativity, confidence, and most importantly—fun.
What to Expect:
Hands-on Drumming: Every participant gets their own drum, with interactive call-and-response games, body percussion, and group rhythm-building.
Cultural Discovery: Learn about the origins of African drumming, traditional rhythms, and their role in celebrations, storytelling, and community life.
Movement & Music: Expect clapping, dancing, and full-body engagement as rhythm fills the room and everyone becomes part of the beat.
Team Building & Connection: Perfect for corporate groups, our drumming circles create unity, boost morale, and help break down communication barriers in a vibrant, uplifting way.
Confidence & Creativity: For school-aged children, drumming encourages self-expression, improves focus, and promotes a positive, can-do mindset.
Why It Works:
Drumming is incredibly inclusive—there’s no “right or wrong,” just rhythm. It’s perfect for large groups and small, shy participants and outgoing performers. In just one session, we often see transformations: students who’ve never spoken up in class start leading rhythms; coworkers who’ve never collaborated before are suddenly in sync, creating something amazing together.
Our drumming facilitators bring contagious energy, expert teaching, and a passion for African culture that turns every workshop into a mini celebration. And yes—there will be dancing, laughter, and lots of smiles!
