If you feel fairly comfortable reading whole, half, quarter, 8th and 16th notes but get tripped up with syncopated rhythms,

then this course is for you. Downbeats feel more "natural" than the upbeats, which is where more complex rhythmic patterns come to life.

​

After a quick review of "straight" rhythms and learning to feel the upbeats we will dive into syncopation by reading increasingly complex patterns with every class.

​

You will require a metronome to use in class, either "old school" or as part of an app on your smartphone.
