Introducing the Percussion Plus Slap Djembe pre-tuned
The original Slap Djembe - a perfect musical tool for schools. The interactive nature of learning djembe drumming not only makes for fantastic music education for youngsters, but also a great therapeutic activity for all ages. With their instructive drumheads and robust construction, Slap Djembes make a brilliant addition to music education settings.
Slap djembes have become well known for their excellent ease of play, lightweight portability, and impressive sound. Slap djembes stand out with their colourful designs, finely tuned drum heads, and durability, making them an excellent choice for group sessions, performances and demonstrations.
Our pre-tuned djembes are sleek, easy to use and great value products. They are the ideal instrument for younger school groups, and provide a simple and affordable way into drumming for groups of all ages and experience levels. Slap Djembes have proven popular for SEND learning, Whole Class Ensemble Teaching (WCET) and even as part of CPD programmes for teachers looking to develop their musical options and skills!
“The first thing I noticed about the drums is how incredibly light they are. This makes them ideal for use in educational settings that involve young children or older children who may find holding the instrument difficult.
The real benefit of these instruments is that the drumhead has been printed with graphics of the hand positions to show exactly where to play the drum to achieve the correct sounds. The construction is solid, they have good tone, are good to look at, and are fun to play.”

Let's play together
With these Slap Djembes from Percussion Plus, you get a great looking high-quality instrument with an innovative 'how to play' guide printed on the drum skin. There are many different techniques used to produce tones on a djembe and any of these can be used on our djembes. The printed graphic on the head of the drum offers suggested hand positions for the three main techniques on a djembe: Slap, Tone, and Bass
With this easy method, teaching and learning is simple and allows you to tailor your class to include visual as well as instructive and aural learners, providing an inclusive way into music making for all levels and abilities. It's no surprise that these drums have become very popular in schools over the last few years.
