How are we going to do this?

In this course, you'll explore the musical patterns and rhythms of Konnakol. It is a special rhythmic language from South India that helps you reduce stress and gives you lots of energy. In Konnakol, instead of using instruments, you use your voice to make cool rhythmic sounds with special words. It's all about having a blast while you learn about music and rhythm!

Step 1: Exploring body music

Start your rhythmic adventure by mastering the coordination of your hands and voice. We'll begin with crafting playful Konnakol patterns like "Tha Dhi Tom Nam".

Step 2: Building fun and creative variations

Dive deeper into the rhythmic games as you mix patterns and explore playful variations. Develop your creative groove and spark through fun exercises.

Step 3: Learning advanced techniques

Create longer, mesmerizing sentences and add expressive elements like "Dha Dhi Gi Na Dum". Discover the artistry and flexibility that make this course truly awesome.

Step 4: Crafting complete compositions

Culminate your journey by crafting full compositions. At this stage, you feel the wave of positive energy in your life and become inspired and motivated.

Embrace the joy and beauty of creating rhythmic masterpieces that will wow everyone around you.

Why choose this course?

The advantage of this practice is that it is versatile and very easy, it does not require special talents or additional instruments. People of all ages and even children can practice it.

Also, with the help of Konnakol new neural connections are actively formed in the brain, which helps to improve memory, concentration, and attention. Stress and anxiety levels decrease and mood improves.

With just 5-10 minutes of free time and a desire for a new, magical musical experience, you can dive into this practice.
