Workshop 157A- African Drumming-MelbourneWant to bring people together? Want to have some fun that will involve everbody! Want to be challenged and invigorated? Want to break the ice and loosen the ties? “Rhythm has long been used as a metaphor for our lives. When we are in rhythm with our colleagues and in tune with our own creative ability then the results of team work seem to come naturally and with less effort.” Drumming is fun and participants are immediately engaged by the great sounds they can make on the drums with no previous experience. With so many people and so many drums we can make a big sound together. It can be a lot of disorganized noise or it can something musical and interesting…it can be powerful and provocative. Simon gives clear and simple instructions that gets everyone sounding strong very quickly. Like everything, there is an Art to working as a team. Its challenging and fun. But most importantly it brings people together and gives them a shared experience that is both rewarding and positive. When participants play together they experience the importance of working as a team and understand that the overall effect or result is bigger than the individual parts….This is SYNERGY!! Participants explore the parameters of rhythm and reflect upon the similarities between ensemble drumming and working as a team.

workshop 227B-Vocal-MelbourneThe team focus is to challenge each participant and reinforce personal responsibility through demonstrating every role, no matter how minor, contributes to the final outcome. We foster co-operation as opposed to competition by using something that everyone has - a voice. Participants will develop listening, problem solving, concentration and communication skills. We will energise all team members, even those without youth and athleticism on their side. Singing as part of a group is about unity and blending, recognizing that each individual can make a difference. A team player will recognize that everyone working together achieves the greatest result. 30 Minute Work Shop: The Lion Sleeps Tonight Delegates are divided into four groups – three of the groups learn a different part of “The Lion Sleeps Tonight” while the fourth group learns percussion. Bringing all the parts together creates a wonderful effect which has been achieved by combining the 4 components, each simple on their own but when united create fullness. 2.5 Hour Work Shops: Song Writing Workshop Take the theme of your conference and let your employees create a song that expresses the company’s philosophies, goals, history and future plans. Our team will give them a choice of song styles such as rock, pop, soul, etc. Working in collaboration, the group will create a chorus with melody and lyrics and then break into smaller groups to write a verse each. They then reconvene to bring it all together and record the final product. If required, there can be a music video produced. Full Day Work Shops: There are a variety of different full day workshops that can be adapted to suit your particular needs. Among these are: Battle of the Musicals – teams are formed and perform songs from well known musicals. Battle of the Choirs – teams sing choral arrangements of gospel or other well known songs. The Singing Olympics – each team participate in a number of events throughout the day, culminating in a ‘sing off’ where each team performs the song they have prepared throughout the day |

African Drumming Workshops for Kids and Schools The workshops are simple and do not require prior knowledge of drumming or musical skills. Everyone is given their own djembe drum and within minutes children are able to progress from simple notes to more complex beats. The workshops also include African songs and chants and other percussion instruments. Our workshops are very informative about African culture and children are encouraged to ask questions. Primary School Prep - Grade 2 Children concentrate on basic co-ordination skills and learn Start and Stop, Loud and Soft and a steady beat. Elements of story telling and call and response singing are also introduced. Grade 3-4 Students move on to working around a steady beat and working together as independent teams with different roles. Grade 5-6 Students progress to weaving up to 6 separate rhythms together. Teachers are particularly appreciative of the way children with difficulties at school are drawn into the drum workshop and show high levels of concentration and focus. High School Students respond excellently to working as a whole class with drums. This can be part of a music class or an element of a Personal and Group development course. A drum circle is a superb tool for uniting groups of people and can be used to counter bullying or issues of racism. corporateEncouraged to work as a group and not as individuals, team-building and collective responsibility is the emphasis at this key stage. Self-confidence and respect and patience for other members of the group are some of the achievements at the youth level |
