What you’ll work on:
•	Technique for producing open tones, slaps and muted strokes on congas and bongos
•	Locking patterns and clave relationships for ensemble feel, plus simple variations to expand the groove
•	Cowbell and clave coordination for danceable grooves
•	Choosing and shaping tones on güiro and maracas (optional)

Instructor: Wilson Melo Garcia (Colombian percussionist), supported by Son Geelong members Dale Atwell and Sonoka Miyake.

Skill level: Perfect for absolute beginners and experienced players — everyone learns together.
