How To Play Congas — Beginner Level

Conga Drum Course for beginners to advanced players

In my conga drum online course, my goal is to provide a comprehensive and inspiring learning experience. I aim to offer a variety of lessons that are both informative and useful, catering to a wide range of situations.

Throughout the course, I will explore the folkloric style on a single drum, while also showcasing popular and creative techniques for playing conga rhythms on two or more drums. This will allow students to deepen their understanding of the instrument and its versatility.

As the course progresses into advanced lessons, we will delve into the art of adapting traditional and folkloric rhythms into practical patterns that can be used in a variety of music genres and band settings. I’ve coined this concept as “Grooves for Gigs,” which captures the essence of applying these rhythms in real-world music scenarios.

By blending traditional styles with contemporary applications, my course aims to equip students with the skills and knowledge to excel in their conga drumming journey. I look forward to sharing my passion and expertise with aspiring drummers, as we explore the limitless possibilities of this beautiful instrument.
