Percussion and Flamenco classes. Cajon, Body percussion..

From 49.78 £ /h

Learn Flamenco, body percussion, cajon and practical tools to be more creative with your instrument!

In these percussion groups we would use Konnakol, an Indian classical system created to understand rhythm, it mixes languaje and mathematics in a way that allow us to understand music in a very intuitive, practical and fun way.

About me:

I'm a professional percussion and flute player from Andalucía that plays flamenco and world music with 15 years of musical experience.
Ive played in different fusion projects as a percussion player in Netherlands, Spain, India, Switzerland...
The last years I've been going to India focusing my studies on the relationship between Indian classical music and flamenco. It is in Mumbai where I started studying tabla and Bansuri at Vrindaban Gurukul since then I realized the great value that indian classical music has as a pedagogical tool and now that I moved to Zurich I'm looking forward to create a group where we can grow together.

I also studied Music therapy in Malaga and in Rotterdam so my focus while teaching is in creating a good relationship with art and the instrument, reprogramming how to learn in a natural and intuitive way and very important, to have fun and express yourself so music becomes an extension of you.

About Me

I consider myself as an eternal student, combining Music and Social work through the last years it made me think, that difficulties to learn music are not technical based...When you feel in a safe space is actually easy to feel the beat in a Djembe or a Cajon.
Most of the people that says that they don't have rhythm or that they are not good with it would realise in our classes that this way of thinking is a blockage, a programmed fear response based in the education that we received.

The idea of these classes is to create a safe space where you can be yourself, learn at your own rhythm and learn music, that could be so natural to us
Melody, harmony, rhythm...Voice, perception, our heartbeat.. We already have that knowledge so, lets reprogram together all of this education so we can enjoy this beautiful tool that art is!
