UPCOMING WORKSHOPS!!
June 6th - African Dance and Drum with Koca, Sasha and Friends! This time there will be balafon and Zimbabwean drumming offered as well. Stay tuned! Mark your calendars! Kocassale Dioubate is my teacher and friend, originally from Guinea, West Africa. He is a griot, an absolutely amazing drummer and fun teacher! There is a family dance/concert planned for the end of the day…..
July 24 - 26 - Marla Leigh, Frame Drummer extraordinaire, will be in the Comox Valley, for the first time -- and this workshop is NOT TO BE MISSED!! Check out Marla's website (marlaleigh.com) and get inspired! This is a once in a lifetime opportunity (unless of course I can convince her to come again!)! More information coming, mark your calendars!!
Who else would you like to see come to the Valley? Let me know, and I'll work on it! (Robin Layne and Jordan Hanson are in the works for the fall, as well as more frame drumming with Heleniq Argyrou (from Cyprus) and Kadijah May Photiades…)
Hope to see you all drumming somewhere sometime soon!
