Join us for the Elephant Collection!
The Elephant Rhythm features triple-meter drumming patterns inspired by the traditional social dance from Mali known as Suku. We’ll enjoy dramatic play in “Elephant Stampede,” and choreographed dancing and drumming in “Music Everywhere.” We’ll also learn a Gaelic children’s song called “Dilín ó Deamhas” and, of course, have a blast doing “The Elephant Dance”! All the songs in this collection have been chosen and arranged specifically to support each student’s music development.

To join the Rhythm Kids®, students are encouraged to bring their own Djembe drum. We will provide it in the class, but it's more valuable if you have one and could practice at home.

ABOUT Rhythm Kids® 

Big kids know what they like. Telling silly stories. Playing games. Being in charge. Designed specifically for pre-K and early elementary students, our active Rhythm Kids® classes for big kids tap into how children this age are wired to learn, with music games, animal rhythm stories, and lots of stomping, flying, and climbing fun, plus the added bonus of learning the Djembe drum!  Rhythm Kids® is just the thing to encourage your children to start making music with their friends. By the end of the semester, they’ll be proud to show off what they’ve learned: to you, their friends and teachers, and—let’s face it—for some kids, every person they meet!  Both in-person and online classes meet for 45 minutes weekly, for a nine-week session. Songbook, CD, and digital downloads included in tuition.

 

 

Rhythm Kids® guides children 4y-8y toward developmentally appropriate music and movement activities, where they can begin to take charge, lead others, and be musically creative, as they:

  • make up their own drumming patterns
  • Invent new ways to play rhythm instruments (shakers, sticks, etc.)
  • Create movement ideas for songs
  • even take a drum solo!


Your child will:

  • Explore the world of rhythm through movement, instrument play, and song
  • Develop basic rhythm skills, like keeping beat, improvising, ensemble play, and soloing
  • Learn to create, cooperate, and express themselves musically
