We are run courses in Maracatu and other rhythms from North East Brazil.
The courses aim to develop understanding of song and drumming
and the rich cultural mix of African, Indigenous and European
influences within a clear educational framework. Stick
control, timing, drum language and lots of fun!
Tutors have extensive experience of working with baterias in Pernambuco
and the UK.
