Rhythm & Drum Solo Workshop

Improvised Drum Solos are particularly difficult to dance to because they may appear unpredictable and because they are, for the most part, fast-paced. I used to feel intimidated by them, but that fear is gone — it has been replaced by the knowledge you'll find in these pages. 

Come with me, I will take you on a journey that will tickle your mind, open your ears and take your dance to the next level.
