Learning Experience

This past week had many adventures did Brought fun and fastinating stories. One search experience was when i attended a short seminar percussion. During this seminar, a new way of approaching how you use your body percussion methods such as tapping a foot or patting a knee. These techniques were used to "activate" the four appendages that are used when playing percussive instruments, your arms and legs. We patted/tapped a steady beat on ourselves while alternating which appendage and how many appendages were being used. We gradually added more timbers in that would emphasize dufferent strong and weak beats. Using this technique of starting from the very basic form and building up one level at a time gave me a new way of practicing percussion instruments and a new way of teaching percussion instruments.
