Baba Kasumu is an amazing teacher. When I joined African dance I came with a love of dance that had long been established, but somehow Kasumu made me love it even more. The love he has for his craft translates to each and every one. Kasumu is patient, understanding and the energy and time he spends with his students is commendable. Ade Jembe Fola forever has a place in my heart for creating my African dance and drumming family, and because of Kasumu.

​I went to my first Tuesday drum class and stayed to drum for the dancers. This was my first time in years and I felt like I was back home. In my opinion, Ade is gifted in teaching. I never once felt overwhelmed even as he encouraged me to go beyond what I thought I could do. I’ll definitely be returning!

The instruction was totally engaging, informative and intense therefore, definitely enjoyable and well worth my time. Kasumu is a wonderful teacher and I suggest anyone seriously interested in djembe, treat themselves to some of his classes.
