Holistic Drum

Hope has been an aficionado of the West African Drum Community for over fifteen years. She has studied with African drum masters such as Mamady Keita, Bolokada Condé, Mamadou Koné and Dibo Camera, among many others. Through her teachers, she has learned and now instructs about the profound impact of the drum on physical and mental health, as well as about the depths of African Culture.

Drumming is proven to be therapeutic, and does wonders for the mind, body and spirit, even more so during these challenging times. We play drums, sing and dance at Holistic Drum's unique African Drum & Rhythm classes, which also cover technique, specific rhythms, stories about Africa, and so much more!

Hope is a gifted teacher who has been sharing her drumming skills and knowledge with both children and adults for over ten years, including private and group lessons, children’s camps and drum circle facilitation. She knows how to bring out the best in people and to work with them to fine-tune their abilities. Her sunny disposition, patience and motivational skills lead adults and children alike to look forward to every percussion session as a rewarding and fun experience!
