Why I'm Launching This Membership - And Whats Coming First

For years, I’ve been deep in the world of rhythm—studying, performing, and teaching across the African diaspora. From the djembe traditions of Guinea to the soul of Cuban rumba, I’ve traveled, trained, and connected with masters, absorbing not just the techniques, but the why behind the music.

Now, I want to bring that knowledge directly to you.

The Vision Behind This Membership

Music is alive. It’s not just patterns and notes—it’s storytelling, it’s feeling, it’s culture. And too often, the deeper context of these rhythms gets lost in translation. I want to create a space where I can share not only how to play but why these rhythms matter—where they come from, how they move people, and how they continue to evolve.

This membership is my way of giving you access to what I’ve learned—not just through one-off lessons, but through an ongoing, evolving journey. Whether you’re a musician, dancer, educator, or just someone who loves rhythm, this space is built for you.

What’s Coming First

To kick things off, I’m starting with a foundational course—a structured dive into the rhythmic building blocks that will elevate your playing, no matter where you’re starting from.

Here’s what you can expect in the first wave of content:

✅ Clave & Groove: The backbone of so many Afro-diasporic styles—learn the feel, not just the mechanics. ✅ Essential Hand Techniques: Avoid bad habits, develop a strong foundation, and get the right sounds from your drum.

✅ The Connection Between African & Caribbean Rhythms: We’ll explore the links between djembe, conga, rumba, and more.

✅ Play-Along & Breakdown Videos: I’ll walk you through patterns step by step and show you how to fit them into real musical settings.

And this is just the beginning. Future lessons will cover advanced techniques, improvisation, playing in ensembles, and even composition.

Why Join Now?

I want the early members of this community to have real input—your questions, your struggles, and your feedback will shape what’s coming next. Plus, this is the lowest price the membership will ever be. If you’re ready to take your playing deeper, this is your moment.

Join me inside—let’s build something powerful.
