Let's build some beats! And have some fun!

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.
