How it works + What we do

Body percussion is literally the embodiment of rhythm. No instruments are needed, just the willingness to interrupt your daily routine to try something new.

By slapping, clicking, clapping and stomping the group warms up in a humorous way, then they learn simple parts that form a complex whole when performed together. A common pulse is created by everyone simultaneously foot stomping.

As people become more comfortable with the parts and begin moving with the music, a transfomational connection is created. Big results in a short time.

The parts may be simple but the combination is impressively complex. The challenge is to get your own part right while being able to concentrate on the whole sound. A good team metaphor.
