Come and learn groovy, contagious African traditional drumming in a fun easy Workshop with Koffie Fugah.

Koffie Fugah is a skilled, inspirational master drummer dancer from Ghana, West Africa. He has been teaching friendly, exuberant workshops to people all around the world for over 15 years. 
Participants will be introduced to West African Djembe Drumming, the techniques and all the different parts that make African African Djembe rhythms so danceable. You will also get the chance to learn a bit of traditional dance, and the history that goes with it.

Participants will learn the traditional songs that go with the rhythms as well as the history behind! 
It is energising and yet relaxing, simple to get started and fun. A way to express oneself and connect with others in a positive environment.

All levels welcome. Everyone will be challenged at their own level.

Djembe drums will be provided but limited, so contact Koffie for more information.
