Drumming

Our regular drumming teacher is Adam Warne, a professional drummer specialising in Arabic and North African rhythms on tabla, riqq and duff, and an innovative leader in frame-drumming.

He is a member of Guy Schalom’s Baladi Blues Band, the Country and Eastern Band (based in Manchester) and Unfurl, a group of musicians with a unique approach to fusing Arabic, Oriental and jazz music.

Arabic Drum Circle

Learn a variety of Arabic and North African rhythms on either tabla (darbouka) or duff. The focus is on drumming for dancers, and for individual students to gain confidence in leading the group.

Coming Together in Rhythm

Twice a year in Holmfirth. .Taster session for summer 2009 tbc.

Enjoy a day of trance rhythms, learning a variety of grounding drumming techniques and combining the meditative effect of powerful group drumming along with simple movement.

Calming, energising, fun and a wonderful antedote to the stresses of modern life. Based on the work of Layne Redmond, author of "When The Drummers Were Women", whom we’d like to thank for giving Adam the go-ahead with this new project.
