We will organize a Djembe workshop which is more beneficial than a drum circle.
Djembe drumming will be explained to you in a fun environment.
You will learn and be challenged in our workshops, unlike in drum circles
Unlike drumming circle, the nature of West African drumming gets people together within the structure of the music.
Our workshops are not like drumming circles because of the history and teaching component which does not exist in free Djembe Jams or drum circles.

Would you like to have a fun interactive team building drum workshop for your team or a  particular group of your company?

Canadian companies are becoming increasingly diverse with people from all over the world,  with employees having very different cultures and backgrounds, and approach to doing  things efficiently.
It's no secret that work efficiency can be improved by having a bounded team - each of your  team member will then have the opportunity to contribute towards their group / department goals, usingtheir full potential for the  benefits of all.

Alpha worked in the corporate world for 15 years both in Europe and in North America, and is well aware of these types of workforce challenges.

Our Team building workshop is using the West African musical orchestra model from Guinea,  as a unique, original, and fun tool to bring your team members closer to one another.
The workshop will also encourage them to communicate better, and will  boost up their morale.

If you've been looking for an event that can energize and motivate your team, look no  further.
Our African drumming team building workshop is the perfect way to achieve this goal in a  fun but challenging environment.

Workshop levels and goals can be customized to suit the specific needs of your group.

Throughout this authentic experience, all participants will get a chance to learn some  drum basic playing technique, and discover Guinean rhythms, tradition, and culture.

Workshops can be run at the location of your choice, or at  our Toronto location. We will provide all the drums for your group.
