Following the success of a series of Candomblé workshops and Master-classes delivered by Global Grooves we are proud to announce the next instalment in this series of intensive study. Delivered by the infamous Jon Hardeman this weekend course comprises the study of several different sequences from the Candomblé tradition – specific styles to be announced.

This new short course boasts a snare-skills assault for those wanting to try their hand at caixa (Brazilian snare) or improve their sticking skills. The course tutor, Holly Prest (director of ‘Juba do Leão’), has studied extensively in Brazil, and has dedicated years of her playing career to perfecting the feel and flexibility of Brazilian stick drumming styles.

Led by Tim Chatterton and Howard Jacobs, this section will excite participants and the crowd with a selection of weird and wonderful blown and reed instruments.
