Back to the Academy — New Training Videos Are Waiting 🥁💚 Hello everyone, I hope you have all had a beautiful summer and that you are doing well. I’m now back at work after a relatively long summer holiday in Côte d’Ivoire, where I spent many days in the village reconnecting with family, culture, rhythm, and the spirit that continues to inspire my work. Now I’m back and continuing to build Drum & Feeling Good Academy. Yesterday, I uploaded several new training videos to the Classroom, and the course Djembe, Drum & Rhythm and Teach Children – Level 1 now has 15 training videos. Please go to the Classroom, open the course, and continue your practice with me. I’m still building, and more lessons will be added as we go. Take your time, repeat the rhythms, use your voice, move your body, and enjoy the process. Let’s keep the joy of drumming alive. Come as you are. Join in. Feel good. 💚 — Kouame

Hello everyone, A new training video has been added to the course How to Play Djembe, Drum & Rhythm and Teach Children — Level 1 in the Classroom. In this lesson, you will see how Rhythms 1, 2 and 3 can be combined into one continuous performance. Practise each rhythm separately first, then follow the transitions and bring them together step by step. I’m also sharing the video here in the Community so we can learn and practise together. After watching, tell us in the comments: Which rhythm feels easiest for you—1, 2 or 3? You are also welcome to share a short video of yourself combining all three. Take your time, keep the pulse steady and enjoy the process. Come as you are. Join in. Feel good. — Kouame 💚

Hello everyone, A new training video has now been added to the course How to Play Djembe, Drum & Rhythm and Teach Children — Level 1 in the Classroom. In this lesson, we practise the rhythmic phrase: Bom – Ta – Bom Using the Zikalo Method, we first listen, then repeat the rhythm with the voice, and finally transfer it to the hands and the drum. I am also sharing the video here in the Community so that everyone can join in and practise together. After watching, try the rhythm several times and tell us in the comments: Was it easy to follow? You are also welcome to share a short video of your own practice. Take your time, stay relaxed and enjoy the rhythm. Come as you are. Join in. Feel good. — Kouame

Oh! Mama. Feeling good is good 😊

Hey! I drum on whatever and read books on feeling good. Then start feeling good. Glad to be part of the group
