Sat 24th Oct 

Beginners session – 10am-1pm (please arrive after 9:30am)

For anyone brand new to the instrument wanting to get super noisy!*

This session is designed for players who are new to the instrument, may already have some experience, or are working towards the techniques required for more advanced playing later on. This mini masterclass will help you to develop techniques for this fast and furious little instrument, with exciting phrasing and stamina building exercises. We will focus on Samba playing, with opportunities for individual feedback.

Instruments: Instruments will be provided but participants are encouraged to bring their own if they have them. *You are encouraged to bring your own earplugs if you wish, as GG will not be providing any.

Cost: £10 per workshop. 

Numbers limited to 9 participants per class, first come first served. If interest level is high, more classes may be scheduled. 

Booking and payment in full in advance of the class is essential. 

Venue: The Vale, Unit 2 Vale Mill, Micklehurst Road, Mossley, 0L5 9JL

Parking is available, and Mossley train station is 15 minutes walk from the venue.
