He supports participants as they experience the importance of rhythm in all aspects of life and realize that "our heartbeat and breath are the rhythms of our soul and the pathway of our connection to everyone." Learn and play songs, rhythms, chants, and activities from the cultures of both East and West Africa, the Middle East, First Nations Peoples, African America, and European America. Drums whose origins are (and inspired by) West African, Middle East, Asia, Indigenous American, and South American: djembe, frame drums, conga, and bongo.
