Conga Drums Lessons I teach all percussion instruments (such as conga, bongo, cajón, djembe, tambores batá (batá-drums), guiro, campana (cow bell), vibraphone (vibes), timpani and other forms of symphonic percussion. Styles include AfroCuban, bossanova, samba, African, jazz, rock, blues, classical, son/salsa, chachacha and other Latin rhythms.

I start each lesson by reviewing previous concepts and skills, ensuring that the basis is strong before I introduce new material. This reinforcement helps my students feel confident and motivated to tackle more challenging musical concepts.

Throughout the lessons, I employ a variety of teaching methods to cater to different learning styles. Interactive activities, hands-on exercises, and creative projects are integrated into my classes to keep students actively engaged. I provide constructive feedback, encourage students to take risks and express themselves musically. By tailoring the instruction to the individual needs and interests of each student, I create a personalised and enriching learning experience.

I celebrate the achievements with each student, acknowledge their progress and growth. Progress certificates can be part of the approach. This positive reinforcement not only boosts the student's confidence but also reinforces the joy that music brings into their life.

Conga Drums Lessons I am happy to take on people of all ages and abilites. I have experience with students from 7 to 77 years old!!

I am a fluent conga player happy to guide you using 1-5 congas at a time.

Starting with basic technique, correct posture and attention to tone (the quality of the sounds be are producing from the instrument, I like to then go straight into simple exercises for developing good time, fluidity and speed and then simple rhythms so we can quickly enjoying playing along to music and immersing ourselves in the right cultural context for what we are learning.

For more advanced students with prior experience on a percussion instrument, we will examine the rhythmic subdivisions and types of phrasing unique to this new style of music/instrument. We will quickly progress from basic technique and rhythms to advanced technique and rhythms as well as phrasing and tips for soloing.

At the end of each lesson, I will send each student a short video with all the material we have covered in the lesson so they can use that for reference when practicing. I will also send them a link to a song which has a good example of the rhythm we were working on and a playlist with a wide selection of artists in that genre.

My objective is to share my joy and love for percussion with others who are keen to take up an instrument, and to guide them in developing an effective and and healthy practice routine supported by musical references for each rhythm and style we are working on at the time.
