Craig Parsons - The Percussion Paradigm

The sophisticated rhythms that non-musicians can produce is remarkable—they literally rise beyond their own expectations. Participants come away from this seminar amazed at what they were able to do and at the joyous feelings engendered by a mutually shared experience with their colleagues. The Percussion Paradigm moves people beyond their preconceived notions of what they are able to accomplish, both as an individual and as a team.

The message of using teamwork to produce exceptional results by putting the common goal ahead of individual agendas, resonates with participants. Professional state-of-the-art drums are provided for use by all participants. This seminar brings new perspective to team-building, reinforces good communication and “raises the bar of achievement.” It’s flexible in terms of number of participants—anywhere from 10 to 50+ and can be tailored to your time needs.

There are three parts—

1. An overview, with warm up exercises and introducing the concept
2. Learning how to play complex rhythms and to ‘groove’ as a group
3. Experiencing the amazing effect of everyone playing together as a single unit, regardless of individual abilities
