This drop-in is all about connection and feel 🌊 — less about drilling parts, more about understanding how everything flows together as one living system 🔄

We’ll cycle through a variety of West African rhythms from Mali 🇲🇱 and Guinea 🇬🇳 — with each class focusing on one rhythm at a time so we can really settle into it, feel it, and understand how it works 🌀

🔍 We’ll explore:

🥁 How the dundun and bell parts lock in 🔔

🧵 How djembe parts weave into the groove

❤️‍🔥 Finding the downbeat and riding the pulse

🧠 Simple “keystone rhythms” that unlock creativity

Think of it like stepping into rhythm as a map 🗺️ and a conversation 🗣️ — feeling how each part supports the whole 🌐

🎒 What to bring:

✨ Good energy
🥁 A drum (if you have one)
🔥 Your rhythm spirit

Come as you are 🙏
Let’s tap in and play
🎶🔥
