About this Course

*** Upon school dismissal, children should report to the Clubhouse located on campus. Instructors will pick them up from the Clubhouse and escort them to their classrooms. Once class is over instructors will bring all students to the front of the campus for parent/guardian to pick-up. Any child not picked up in a timely manner will be brought back to Clubhouse. There may be an additional charge when a child is taken to Clubhouse, if they are not already enrolled. This will be the process for every week.*** *** Minimum enrollment must be met for this program to run on schedule. Please register at least 1 week before the start of the program. *** Bucketeers use an innovative color-coded system applied to five-gallon buckets to allow children to learn & experience the art of percussion. Special multi-rod drumsticks help keep the volume down and seat cushions provide a comfortable experience. Benefits include forging a foundation in rhythm, playing with a steady pulse, learning a variety of patterns, participating in collaborative movement activities, and developing hand-eye coordination. Students play along with a diverse set of music: children’s, pop, rock, jazz, and multi-genre songs in several languages incorporating beats and patterns from around the world. Each class doubles as a rehearsal building towards an end-of-session performance. Drummers will be introduced to several music skills and concepts throughout the session including: Stick Technique Dynamics Song Structure Improvisation Call & Response Tempo Melody Timbre NO CLASS: 9/29, 11/10
