Exeter school of samba is run by music graduate and
drum-kit teacher Scott Craig.
Scott the 'Mestre', uses Brazilian-made instruments to
teach the traditional
Brazilian rhythms characteristic of the drum schools
(baterias) of Rio and
Sao Paulo.
The aim of Exeter School of Samba is to provide an
opportunity for anyone with
an interest in percussion, music and/or rhythmic movement
to develop their
musical skill and abilities within the framework of this
vital, traditional art form.
Participating in rhythmic workshops increases confidence,
energy, team work
and creativity.
The philosophy of Exeter School of Samba is 'Make
Yourself Heard', which is
about finding your voice on all sorts of levels. Because
Scott works primarily with
schools and school children he has an interest in
education, teaching, group
work and behaviour. Bullying is one of the most
detrimental forces to arise within
any educational or work environment, which is why Exeter
School of Samba's
'Make Yourself Heard' anti-bullying workshops are being
developed. |
