An African drumming workshop at Modhesh World has succeeded in bringing together different cultures for a simple purpose – learning to play the djembe drum.
The drumming workshop at the Modhesh Magical Forest is one of the most popular activities at Modhesh World. Children have a stimulating and amazing time at the African drumming workshop.
Yacob Ratovski from Poland, the instructor at the Modhesh Magical Forest said, “I have been playing professionally for six years now. This is the first time I am in Dubai and it has been an amazing experience teaching here. Drumming relaxes and rejuvenates your mind and body and it suits Modhesh World perfectly as it embodies the spirit of joy and fun that Modhesh World creates in the hearts of children and adults.”
“Drumming lessons here will surely open new avenues to hone skills and help children to focus; it will also stimulate their minds to be creative and innovative,” he added.
Maher, a father of four said, “This is something we have never done but it is fun. In fact, it has drawn lots of people together. We do not know each other but here we are all creating music together. I feel at ease and all of us are happy being part of this workshop.”
