STOMP - Style Body Percussion

Molodi Body Percussion

This residency combines the basics of stepping and STOMP-style body percussion. A fast-paced and culturally rich style of body music performance that focuses on physical, mental, and emotional connections for students. The residency is centered around giving young people a safe, inclusive, engaging space that challenges youth to see, reveal, and strengthen who they are. Stepping and body percussion promotes teamwork, discipline, confidence, music appreciation, and physical well-being. Students can expect to expand their knowledge of rhythm and musicality. The classes are experience-based and move at each individual's level of comprehension so every student leaves with a personally better-tuned instrument (their own body) than when they arrived.
