My conga lesson with Manny was magical! The studio is inviting and well appointed. The didactic portion of the lesson is well organized, easy to follow and just enough depth to give you an appreciation for the conga without overwhelming you. The music used to teach you the versatility of rhythm you learn are classic hits from varying music genres which keeps it exciting. You leave feeling like even if you never decide to play the conga again that at least you rocked it for a day. Lol. But hands down the best part is Manny’s passion for the instrument and warm personality. That’s what makes the experience magical. It was refreshing seeing someone live their passion. We had planned this as a family activity but were unable to do so. I ended up taking the class alone and I am so happy I did. I definitely plan to return with my family if we are ever back in the area. Hopefully by then I will be better at my heel, toe, close slap, open slap strokes. Take the class!
