Parent & Child Samba Drumming Workshop

17th May 2025

Every effort has been made to verify the accuracy of the event information but we recommend contacting the event organisers before attending.

Samba drumming taster session for a room full of people to play percussion as one with teachers from our own local samba band - Bloco Winnoch. You and your child(ren) will take part in a samba bateria, or drumming group, of the type that comes together in the Brazilian carnival. You will try several instruments and play together as a massive carnival band. By watching the director's signals and listening to the whistle the band will learn how to weave together a complex samba rhythm that will be heard in the hills above Howwood! Suitable for children aged 8 y/o and upward. Ear protection mandatory and foam plugs are provided, however if you have ear defenders - bring them. We'll provide all the instruments. Cost: £10 per family for up to two children. Please ensure you add each child to your booking. Pre-Booking is advised but where there is availability walk-ins will be accepted on the day. If you do pre-book but are unable to attend, please let us know as soon as possible incase we are operating a waiting list. This way others won't miss out.
13:00 - Saturday 17th May
