Continue your connection with Islamic devotional songs and qasā’id through the steady beat of the drum - having begun the journey, now is the perfect time to deepen your practice and build confidence in this beautiful tradition.
These workshops are open to those who have completed a level 1 beginners' course and wish to further develop their drumming skills alongside the singing of qasā’id and nasheeds. Participants will explore more advanced rhythms and techniques that can be applied across the daff, darbuka, and djembe.
