Justine Hart has been running African Drumming workshops since 1998 and has extensive teaching experience with groups of mixed ability.

Justine is particularly familiar with the corporate environment through 15 years of office based jobs.  This has given her a keen awareness of the dynamics and issues of working in a corporate team and the constraints and practical  concerns at a conference or “awayday”.

Justine regularly visits west Africa to continue her ongoing study of this musical form and to experience the culture from which it originates.  Her passion and enthusiasm for African drumming is infectious and, in combination with her teaching style and abilities, she produces very effective results.
