In my class we have 2 teachers, and at the end we have a 'rhythm section' where we split off and the dancers have their choice of drumming or zils. Does anyone else do this and if you do what do you do? It goes well and We have fun, and its the last 1/2 hour of a 2 hour class, but I get the sense it could be a little bit better. Here's how we run the show: I get a particular rhythm going with the drummers, and the zil folks follow along and work with whatever we're doing. They also practice doing moves with zils too. Since I have enough drum knowledge to be dangerous, I worry that my teaching technique might be not so great yet. I'm open to any advice you got to offer here. I worry about my students getting bored, but I don't want to overload either. I have 2 drumming dvds I watch a bit, and yes they are helpful. But if someone else does this, I 'd love to hear about it, and if someone wants to do it, start up and we can be support for each other.
