About the event

TTMDA Chicago Djembe Classes in Oak Park!
TTMDA Chicago Djembe classes are fun and engaging class taught by M. Taylor, Senior Instructor at the Tam Tam Mandingue Djembe Academy School of Djembe (the djembe is a West African hand drum). Students learn proper hand technique and timing in the context of learning traditional djembe rhythms. A djembe specialist since 1994, Taylor has been put on a mission by his Master Drummer teachers to be a “messenger of tradition”, so all lessons include the oral history of the rhythms (history, purpose, ethnic group, location), maps are used in discussions/explanations. These classes also include dunun lessons (cylindrical bass drums); dununs provided. Djembe’s may be rented if necessary, $5/day pair directly to Taylor. Experience not necessarily necessary!

tuition: $20/class
(cash preferred, negotiable for folks in financial hardship or if you have youth older than 7yrs)
** Please check my Events page for the most up to date info before you come out!
No preregistration necessary, but let me know if you need to rent a djembe from me at least a day in advance! **
