Zorina's teachings are unique, and instead of being taught rhythmic patterns, participants are invited into an embodied experience of the underlying structures within the music.
Class will fluctuate between movements & exercises and of course, playing the drum and bells.We will spend this day together, while exploring the roots of simple rhythms that are easy to play: Samba, Congolese, and more!
Be prepared for lots of learning and welcome in the year with groove. Join us for this exciting day of play and music making!
More about Zorina: The power of drumming is an art, a means of communication and healing, and a way to bring harmony to community. Zorina teaches drumming as her teachers (primarily Babatunde Olatunji) have taught her. The drum teaching is both oral and aural. Students sing/say the Yoruba sounds of the drum, and as we sing/say the melody of “notes,” playing the drum follows easily. The rhythms are songs that become internalized, circumventing the need for prior musical training. We also believe in the power of understanding the rhythmic "houses" or "structures" that we can build and play within, and developing our own chants to sing within them.
