These are not jembe techniques, nor is that a jembe, but you have a good ear and some good conga skills.
Is it 1e&a TWOe&a ThreeE&a Foure&a ?
Love this video, wonderfully taught. I was able to follow along and then slow it way down until I could play it consistently on my own in one sitting. Gonna check out all the rest of your videos. This was a blessing to me.
sick beat and good teacher!
Isn’t that basic guanguanco rhythms? I play that on the conga’s a little differently.
Is that a 24×10″ Earth Remo Djembe? I’m 6’1 so I thought I should have a 14″, but since I need about 24″ in length, would you recommend it for a 6 footer? I just started playing guitar for church, but I was in love with drums for as far back as I can remember, but never got to play them. You can do a surprising amount with a djembe, however. Thank you for posting this
I was getting frustrated at all the Djembe videos. This was EXACTLY what I wanted to see. I played on a friends cheap tourist one once, and this is the closest to my style I think I will find on here. Now I think I know what type I am looking to get. Thank you very much
Beautiful instruction from a generous heart! Thank you.

man your video is GREAT, just got a djembe and this is a very informative! thankyou!
this is one of the most versatile beats on a djembe. learn it and it can be used for endless applications! play around with accents and mutes. try putting a couple coins on the head of ur drum. makes a cool effect. Thanks shawn!
