Description: Intro to Drumming for Kids ages 5-7
This class is an introduction to all kinds of drumming for kids ages 5-7. In the 6 week course, kids will experience rhythm through hand and stick drumming as well as rhythm games with body percussion and found sound percussion. We will learn basic hand drumming skills on West African djembes, basic sticking technique on Western drums such as snares, toms, and cymbals, and will make our own found sound “drum sets” using reclaimed items such as pot lids, buckets, boxes, and anything else that makes a fun sound. This class is a great way for kids interested in drumming to decide what type of drum they\’d like to focus on before you go out and buy! Best of all, the class members will interact through leading and supporting each other in a variety of games designed to foster whole body coordination and interdependence.
