::Lulacruza Workshop:: Introduction to TaKeTiNa February 3, 2008

Nov 3 & Feb 3 (3pm-5pm)
Introduction to TaKeTiNa

TaKeTiNa is a group process that allows access to the body's innate rhythmic knowledge, conveying rhythm in a natural and organic manner. Participants are guided into the experience of rhythm archetypes - a matrix which constitutes the underlying structure of all music- through vocalization, clapping, and stepping. In other words, the students gain direct access to the rhythmic worlds of Africa, Asia, and Latin America by using the body itself as the main instrument.

Zorina Wolf is an advanced teacher of TaKeTiNa and a drum and percussion instructor. Wolf has been playing the drum for over 16 years and teaching half that time.Through the mentoring of the late African drum master Babatunde Olatunji, she discovered the importance of fostering drum communities based on cooperative teaching and learning.
