Anyone who hasn't experienced the joy, expression and connection of African drumming has a chance to do so this weekend in a special event at Levin's Thompson House.
A workshop to help participants learn beginner African drumming techniques and strategies, as well as find "joy through the drum" is being hosted by musician and teacher Jennifer Moss on Saturday July 6.
Moss is an award-winning and highly experienced musician and fully trained teacher who is "passionate about providing opportunities for all to experience the sheer joy of music through accessible music making," she said.
"I'm expert at getting folk who have never touched a drum to feel like rock stars."
Manawatū-based Moss says she is driven by helping people find their voices, whether through song, music or drumming and has been described as teaching with contagious enthusiasm and positivity.
