Drumming 101: Feel the Beat!

Rhythm starts here!

Get ready to drum, tap and groove! Kids will explore the basics of drumming by learning essential beats, rhythms and techniques to build a strong foundation. We’ll practice hand coordination, timing and dynamic patterns while we tap away on our table. Through fun exercises, call and response games, kids will develop their musicality and confidence. No experience needed, just bring your energy and get ready to feel the beat!

April Lavine Learn more about me

I’m a singer, ukulele player and a dancer! I also love to play the guitar, write songs and create stories. I recently published a children's book called The Fairy Flurries. I’ve been a homeschool teacher, a Waldorf teacher and camp facilitator as I lead summer camps in my backyard. I love to have fun and be creative!

For the last 20 years of my life I wrote every day in my journal, reflecting on what I did throughout the day. It's like my own special treasure map of memories!
