    Join Tuza and Simon for a once in a lifetime opportunity that will open your eyes, ears and spirit to the music and culture of West Africa.

    The four-week study intensive will take you into the heart of the region’s traditional rhythms, dances and songs, helping you to develop your skills under the guidance of local drum and dance masters.
