CIRCULAR RHYTHM PATTERNS

Seeing rhythm as a circular pattern can help make connections between the different beats... Check out this short video explaining some rhythmic concepts from around the world!
Gaelynn Lea was born with a set of challenges that might have made the dream of becoming a musician seem near impossible... but through her incredibly positive outlook on life, coupled with support from a teacher and family and a whole lot of courage, she now tours as a professional musician and won the NPR Tiny Desk contest among a pool of more than 6000 artists.

The truth is that we are all musicians, it is inside of us each of and it is an integral part of being human. Sometimes we just need to tap into something that is already inside of us, ready to surface and bloom. For me, percussion became a passion at an early age, and I have had joy of playing and teaching for more than 25 years. For me the best times are being there when a student has a "breakthrough" with their playing... the moment when something "clicks" and the rhythm suddenly makes sense. This often happens at the least expected time, and really... it is a gift.

It is easy to feel discouraged when learning something that is new or challenging. It is at these times that we can look to others like Gaelynn for inspiration and realize that something which seems unreachable may actually be closer than we might think.
