Ben Kidson | Facilitator & InspirationRhythm is the food for my soul. I've been drumming for 15yrs and i can
never get enough. My experience has been dominated by the drum kit
and I have found that African drumming is effecting me in a very
different way. I have found a warmth in this style of drumming and in
the people that it seems to attract that is unique to it's form. I love
rhythm, live to study it and was lucky enough to come across InRhythm
who have given me a place to share my joy with a great cross section of
my community.

Yani Socratous | Facilitator & Inspiration
Yani's passion was drummed into him at an early age. His
father and grandfather were drummers in the Greek tradition, so with a
lineage like that it was inevitable Yani would follow in their
footsteps. He began playing the Greek drum at 10 and in his high school years became a drummer in a band. But it wasn't until he was in his early 20s that he graduated to the djembe - a traditional drum from West Africa. "I
used to fiddle around with it until I went and listened to an African
man transform it into one of the most unbelievable musical experiences
of my life," Yani said. "That's when I decided to take lessons and seriously learn the instrument." Now a djembe virtuoso he shares his expertise with others.

Sal Salem | Facilitator & Inspiration
"...music is as old as human beings. Our ancestors, who
travelled from cave to cave, couldn't carry many things, but modern archaeology
shows that, as well as the little they might have with them in the way of food,
there was always a musical instrument in their baggage, usually a
drum."
- The Witch of Portobello by Paulo Coelho
Descendant from the nomadic Bedouin tribes Sal (Salama
Salem) was born in the Atlas Mountains in Morocco,
Africa. Born into the rhythm of drums she resonated
and was instantly drawn to the inrhythm circle. A fascination and
curiosity with music she loves to learn all things and teach that which has
become ingrained. Interweaving many varied vocations from DJ/MCing,
hosting trivia to a BridgeClimb tour guide and tarot reading she aspires
to serve, entertain and provide joy in peoples lives. She loves to surf,
drum, travel and rock out in general.

Jean-Jacques Angenieux | Facilitator & Inspiration
Jean-Jacques has a passion for hand drumming and all African
Music. He has a special connection with music from Mali
where his wife Francoise comes from. He met his djembe master Mohamed Bangoura
in 1999 and has studied in Guinea West Africa. "People ask me why I still
go regularly to Mohamed's classes after all these years (haven't missed an
Easter workshop at Glenrock near Newcastle)
my answer is : not to play so much as to listen. The Africans don't hear the
music the way we Westerners do and it takes a long time to train the ear to
"listen the African way" and then translate that on the drum. This is
my life time commitment and I’m enjoying every second of it."
