What will I learn?
You will start by understanding the cajón's construction, cultural history, and how to choose the right instrument. From there, you will develop proper posture, hand positioning, and the three core strokes that drive every rhythm you play. The course covers foundational time-keeping, syncopation, and meters before moving into authentic grooves from Afro-Peruvian, flamenco, and Afro-Cuban traditions. You will learn to build fills, navigate song structures, and play effectively alongside other musicians. Advanced topics include polyrhythm, hand independence, and improvisation frameworks. Supplementary material covers studio recording, practice system design, and the basics of building a professional career as a cajón player.
