My Project

Hello!

My students are constantly wiggling in their chairs as they concentrate on work.

In fact, I have some students who have broken a few chairs from stretching and bouncing so hard. These chairs would help when they are deep in focus working on a project but just need to get out a little energy.

The djembe is essential to our choral performances. Many songs that our groups perform call for a djembe and we just leave it out. It would add so much to be able to have a djembe accompany the group.
