Regular Bateria Lucha / Maracatu Luta workshop where you'll learn maracatu, afoxe/ijexa, and other rhythms from Brazil (especially the north-eastern state of Pernambuco) and around the world.

The first hour is an intermediate/advanced workshop (everyone is welcome and encouraged to come watch if they're new, but active participation is by invitation). The second hour is a "beginning" class open to all levels (though more experienced participants are always invited to stay and work on instruments they don't usually play, and/or to help teach newer people).

Tonight's workshop will have to be held in Mosswood Park, since things at the Buena Vida Dance Club are pretty up in the air. Stay tuned for details on next week's location.

This week is going to be a trial run at a new location: 2905 Shattuck, which is an art studio (known as the "Art of Living Center") on Shattuck between Ashby and Russell. I'm not sure it's going to be ideal, but it's better than the hallway in front of the Buena Vida Dance Club. ;) So, we'll just try it out this week, and see how it goes for the future. Please note that next week (2008-04-17) there will not be a workshop since I'll be out of town.

This week, the whole 2 hours will be an all-levels workshop. The price will be $10, but no one will be turned away for lack of funds. We'll have to be flexible for the next few workshops while we're trying out new the space and starting to get our regular routine built back up.

This workshop are currently scheduled at 2905 Shattuck, though we're still looking for an ideal long-term location. Check back here for confirmed details.
