Chapter - Ecstatic Drum Beats

Involving percussion, movement, play, teamwork, and listening techniques, these workshops are an opportunity to learn and perform as a group in a gentle and inclusive environment.

No prior experience is necessary. If you have any access requirements, contact kit.edwards@chapter.org and we will try to accommodate.

Instruments will be provided although participants will be encouraged to bring their own if they’re able.

The first session on Saturday 11th January will be two short taster workshops for 16-18 year olds from 2-3pm and 19-30 year olds from 3.30-4.30pm.

Sign up for that date and we will be in touch to confirm your group.
