WELCOME TO LATIN DRUMMING WORKSHOP !
ABOUT LATIN PERCUSSION:
Latin Percussion is now part of our daily life in the city and in the mainstream media. As it became part of the popular language through bands, TV shows and international performers, there is great interest in learning how to play these amazing instruments. Although the instruments are classified as "Latin Percussion" their applications are endless.
Their uses are applied to such styles as Rock, Jazz, Pop, Salsa and Fusion. All students are required to view this activity as a serious learning experience with dedication and perseverance. The results are amazing and the positive energy generated from its practice has never been more rewarding.
There are 3 formats for the drumming workshop:
Community – School – Corporate
