The objective of these group beatbox lessons is to enable the students to gain a greater set of technical and musical skills with beat boxing, and to help the students develop a greater understanding of the role of the drums in modern contemporary music. This is achieved through the repetitive practices of technique, as well as developing critical listening skills demanded of beat boxers & drummers alike. The lessons will meet the students at their skill level and assess ways in which they can grow as a beat boxer. The lessons will develop from an understanding that beat boxing is rooted in the drum kit, with beats and rhythms translated from there into the learner's beats. Class Breakdown: Class 1: - Intro: Beatbox In Music - Parts of the beatboxer's "drum kit" - Learn Beat #1 & drum fill #1 Class 2: - The importance of warming up - Invisible Drums (Warm-up) - Review Beat #1 - Learn drum fill #2 & #3 - Simon Says: Drum Edition Class 3: - Invisible Drums (Warm-up) - 8-counts (what is it & how does it help our sense of rhythm) - The importance of repetition: Musical Endurance - Learn Beat #2 w/ drum fill #1 - Freeze Dance Class 4: - Invisible Drums (Warm-up) - 8-counts - Review Beat #2 w/ drum fill #1 - Learn Beat #2 w/ drum fill #2 & #3 - Simon Says: Drum Edition
