African Drumming and Dance brings cultural topics to life!

​

Cognitive function.

Drumming has a distinctly therapeutic aspect – it's good for our state of mind. It exercises the brain through stimulating cognitive functions like perception, attention and memory

 

An African Drumming and Dance workshop provides a fantastic activity for Black History, an Africa topic or to include in a Cultural Diversity Day.  

 

It is an exhilarating experience for pupils and teachers and students alike when they make that first rumble all together with the African djembe hand drums.  As each pupil plays on their hand made drum, the whole world of history, tradition and culture - not just by passively listening or reading, but by actively playing and participating.  This way they really experience the ethnic tradition and culture of West Africa.
