The Djembe Circle Rhythm Study Group

Welcome to The Djembe Circle Rhythm Study Group. This is a space for anyone interested in exploring the traditions and techniques of West African djembe drumming in a supportive, consistent environment. Whether you are picking up the drum for the first time or have been playing for years, this group is focused on steady improvement, learning proper hand technique, and developing a deeper understanding of rhythm.

We meet regularly to break down patterns, practice basic accompaniment parts, and work on solos in a collaborative way. Rather than just playing for fun, our goal is to help each other grow as musicians through focused study and shared knowledge. If you have your own drum, please bring it along, and if you are still looking for one, feel free to reach out so we can help you find a loaner for your first session. We look forward to building a community centered around the music.
