Hands on Drumming provides an essential experience for learning basic hand  drumming skills.  These workshops  present core rhythmic knowledge basic to all drumming cultures.  

This workshop is an obvious starting place for beginners. There are a lot of discoveries to be made. Ongoing and intermediate levels reveal  practical yet more complex possibilities for all hand percussion instruments.
