Mastering Darbuka – The Complete Holiday Bundle Start the New Year with Real Rhythm in Your Hands
Ever dreamed of sitting down at a darbuka and just… flowing? Feeling the groove, nailing the rolls, and actually sounding like the players you admire? That’s exactly why I put this whole system together.
This isn’t “just a book” or “just some videos.” It’s the full package I wish I’d had when I started — everything you need to go from zero to confident player without the usual frustration and guesswork.
Here’s what you actually get:
The PDF method book (clear, beautiful, and actually fun to read)
452 crystal-clear MP3 play-along tracks — one for every single exercise in the book
6 long, gorgeous backing tracks, each in 6 progressive speeds (so you never get stuck)
Complete step-by-step video course (watch my hands up close, copy exactly what works)
My adapted Western notation that makes Middle-Eastern rhythms feel totally logical
Over 25 years of teaching secrets baked right in
Instant digital download — yours forever, no shipping, no waiting
The lowest price I’ll ever offer (Holiday Special — honestly, grab it now)
Why this works so well (and why most other stuff doesn’t)
Most people learn with only one tool — a YouTube video, or a book, or random loops. That’s why they plateau fast. My students blast past that wall because they get all three at once:
You read it → You hear it → You see it and do it with me. No guessing. No “wait, was that a tek or a ka?” Everything lines up perfectly.
The 452 play-alongs become your daily rhythm coach. Phone in your pocket, headphones on, perfect practice anywhere — subway, park, kitchen at 2 a.m. (we’ve all been there).
The long backing tracks? That’s where the magic happens. They turn dry exercises into actual music. You’ll start slow, feel ridiculous for about ten seconds, then suddenly you’re in the pocket and grinning like an idiot because it finally feels real.
The videos are the closer. You’ll see exactly how relaxed fingers create lightning-fast rolls, how the wrist floats, where the dumbek sits so your back doesn’t hate you after 30 minutes. Little details that took me years (and a few injuries) to figure out — handed straight to you.
Who this is for (spoiler: probably you)
Total beginners who want to start the right way
Drummers curious about Middle-Eastern and Mediterranean grooves
Daf, bendir, riq, or tombak players looking to cross-train
Belly dancers who want to truly understand the music they move to
Music teachers hunting for the perfect curriculum
Anyone who wants more focus, flow, and joy in their life (rhythm does that)
Zero experience needed. Seriously — if you can clap on 2 and 4, you’re over-qualified.
Holiday Gift to Yourself (or someone you really like) Instead of another pair of socks or one more streaming subscription, give the gift of real skill, daily joy, and that “I can’t believe I just played that” moment.
Price goes back up after the holidays. Download takes 60 seconds. You’ll be playing tonight.
