Soul Rhythm African Drumming brings African culture and music to your school, party, or youth groups with our dynamic and engaging team. Our professional facilitators will lead your group on a rhythmic journey which teaches about traditional African culture and music. We offer energetic and engaging programs for schools that are both educational and fun for all ages. We provide insight into traditional African culture and the importance of music both to that culture and to our own society.

The workshop is all hands-on and teaches students traditional African drumming, songs and body-percussion. Our instructors include renowned master drummers from West Africa with years of teaching experience. We will lead the group on an entertaining, rhythm filled journey, using drumming and music to teach about Africa and its Indigenous cultures. Even the most difficult audience will be engaged! Our workshops can be tailored to fit your school’s curriculum, and can work towards a performance of the repertoire learnt during the program such as Arts Weeks, graduation ceremony or celebration of cultural diversity and African studies.
