With wooden shells, goat skins, rope and gloves provided; our experts will guide and assist you through the process of skinning and tuning your own drum, plus a bonus lesson in drumming some easy beats!
This five-hour workshop also includes lunch and refreshments provided, catering to gluten-free & vegan diets.
