Book African Dance Workshops

We provide the best African drumming workshops for primary, secondary, infant, and SEN schools. Our workshops are available across the UK.

In our African Drumming Workshops, every child in the classroom has their own drum and learns traditional African rhythms featuring unusual yet captivating grooves.

At the end of each session, the children demonstrate what they’ve learned by performing for one another in a circle.

We can also offer whole-school demonstrations, typically held at the end of the day during an assembly, where the powerful sound of African drums can be heard and felt by all pupils. The vibrant beats are accompanied by traditional movement, including stamping and sliding dance steps. We also explain how these sounds were historically used for alerts, songs, and storytelling—bringing village life and traditional ceremonies within the community to life.

East Africa is a region rich in heritage, home to many rivers and mountains, tropical rainforests, and fascinating wildlife.

The workshops are structured into sessions, with one class (up to approximately 30 pupils) participating per session.

The workshop can be held indoors or outdoors, as long as it’s not raining.
