Body percussion is a great way to get up and have fun learning about rhythms and coordination, group interaction and teamwork, personal musical ability and listening - and have fun together bringing out the inner drummer in you!
In this class, we'll firstly all learn a little bit about clapping, tapping, slapping, snapping and stomping. Then, we’ll form two groups that will play against each other rhythmically - team coordination and individual listening is a must.
Lastly, we’ll ask a few volunteer soloists to a final ‘play-off’ between the groups! This class is perfect if you're looking for virtual team building activities.
All ages are welcome and no previous musical experience or instruments are necessary!

  • 5/5 from Holly Bennett, attended Aug 2021: Wow! SO much fun, Dan is amazing, so much energy! This is a great activity during this lockdown. Thank you ClassBento!
  • 5/5 from Nerys Thompson, attended Aug 2021: Thank you ClassBento! This class was so much fun! I've never tried Body Percussion before and it's something that is completely out of my comfort zone but Dan was great and made it easy to follow along. Would highly recommend this as great way to break up your day.
  • 5/5 from Yosi, attended Aug 2021: Good workshop. But isnt there any class except thursday? I'm too busy at thursday. Let me know if there is class except thursday
  • 5/5 from Ella, attended Aug 2021: This was such a fun class, great lockdown mood-booster and the teacher was great.
  • 5/5 from Alix Madden, attended Aug 2021: Fabulous! So energising and Dan was just excellent with including everyone. Was really wonderful! Thank you
  • 5/5 from Holly Peasland, attended Aug 2021: So much fun, would love to do it again and even try the Ukkele class
  • 5/5 from Alicia Druery, attended Aug 2021: Dan’s body percussion class was so much fun Thank you to Dan and ClassBento. That was awesome
  • 4/5 from Susan Laverty, attended Aug 2021: Very enjoyable, a highlight of my day. Teacher was very passionate and enthusiastic. The lesson was very well planned and flowed easily.
  • 4/5 from Robin Tabari, attended Aug 2021: Haha This one was fun & a great one for kids! Recommend to keep the little ones active!
  • 4/5 from Megan, attended Aug 2021: This was fun & Dan was very enthusiastic but felt rushed & he tried to do too much. It would've been easier if Dan was standing up so we could see him doing the whole routine. Would do a full length class as it would be more fun as there's more time to learn the routines. This would be good for seniors & kids. I would rate this 4 1/2 stars.
  • 5/5 from Sarah Franks, attended Jan 2021: It was a lot of fun to spend 45 minutes with Dan at the beginning of our offsite. He was well organised in how to make it work over video. The team had a lot of laughs getting the blood flowing and using our bodies as percussion. Thanks Dan!

I’m a bestselling author, who has published a few books on topics ranging from salsa dancing to Brasilian music & percussion to life enrichment & autism. I’ve also taught college classes on writing and publishing. In addition, I play music and teach ukulele, and body percussion as well...
I love helping people follow their dreams to write (and publish) their own books, and am looking forward to working with you to achieve your literary goals.
