Hello Kym, thank you for taking the time to provide your feedback. We're glad to hear you were happy with overall skin quality however are sorry to hear the skins didn't meant your expectations. Skins are a product which vary owing to the natural pigment from the skin. We understand our team have since been in direct contact with you and have resolved this along with the technical shipping issue you experienced. Please feel free to reach out again if we can assist you further. Thank you once again for your feedback. The African Drumming Team

“Great selection of instruments. Online learning modules for teachers/leaders have been very useful for our community djembe group. Brianna has been a terrific presenter. It’s worthwhile having a crack online at one of the Beginner/Intermediate rhythm cycles. Access to the AD Facebook group has been invaluable in consolidating/exploring other rhythm options. The Rhythm Bible / essential support document. All deliveries have been prompt. Very very happy with Simon, Mikey & team.”

The premises are a delight to visit and house all manner of drums, percussive instruments, instruments to aid well-being, African fabric, basketry, clothing, sculptures, wall hangings, etc. Drumming classes are held out the back and dance is upstairs in a fabulous mirrored room. The staff are welcoming, helpful and always friendly. It's a joy to be a part of the AD community!”

“A wonderful business to deal with. Excellent customer service including very prompt responses to queries. Absolutely blown away by the quality of the instruments in the starter pack I purchased for my class. The solidness and beauty of the drums was not what I was expecting for the price. And the colours and craftsmanship of the smaller instruments included was also impressive. The joy and excitement on my students faces as they unpacked and handled what they could see were ‘real instruments’. No plastic ‘toy like’ stuff here!”
