A FEW THINGS YOU MIGHT WONDER
Before you
find your flow.
Do I need a darbuka to start?
You can explore the rhythms with the on-screen drum pads or your J, K and L keyboard keys. A real darbuka helps you develop physical technique when you’re ready.
Is this suitable for beginners?
Yes. Start with the Foundations chapter, listen slowly and follow the hand cues. You can explore the course freely and repeat any phrase at your own pace.
How do I sign up or reset my password?

How do I cancel my subscription?

Is microphone coaching required?
