In partnership with Rise Training Academy, we’re honored to offer a class that highlights the powerful djembe orchestra. For 10 weeks, this FREE class will invite you deeper into the world of traditional West African music, whether you’re a vet or you’re new to the game. Now adults will be able to learn the intricacies of the djembe, dundunba, sangban, kenkeni + more ☺️🎉
