Turn your Scout, Guide or youth group into a full Samba Band in only an hour. A series of workshops could lead to a performance at an event or even a carnival parade

​Based in Kirklees, West Yorkshire we travel all over the UK, bringing our addictive drum beats with us. If you can hold a drum stick, you can make beautiful music at Rhythm Stick’s drum workshops. Delivering weekly Samba and percussion classes in Kirklees we develop musicality and boost wellbeing for both adults and young people.
