In Person class in Asheville! Open to all skill levels. You will need your djembe and dununs for this class. The Passport series of classes gives drummers the opportunity to develop skills, learn new rhythms and have fun drumming with a great group of drummers. All classes are for any skill level and it's fine to jump in anytime in the series. If you know Bountou, then you know that each class is fun and packed full of content!
Foundational rhythms are rhythms that every student should know because they contain elements fundamental to learning West African music (timing, handing, patterns, etc) that can be used as building blocks to accelerate further learning.
During the Foundational Rhythms class we will cover:
History of the rhythm
Djembe and Dunun parts
Rudiments and improved sound/technique
Reading/Writing djembe/dunun music (bring a notebook for notes and writing)
And much more

All Passport West classes are 9 am - 3 pm at the Francine Delaney New School for Children, 119 Brevard Rd., Asheville, 28806. Map and Directions: https://fdnsc.net/admission/visit/.
If you'd like to bring your lunch, there are picnic tables on the school grounds or visit one of the many area restaurants for dine-in or takeout.
The incredibly talented and fun Robin Bountourabi Leftwich from High Point, NC brings instruction and humor to every class. Bring your djembes and as many dununs as you want to use and carry. Some folks will bring ballet sets and more! These classes are always a blast and it's amazing how much can be learned in one day of unbelievable fun!
Looking forward to drumming with you all!
