“Rhythm Path engages ALL learners in an exciting and unique way. The program is accessible to all, full of new information, and the students will talk about it for weeks to come. This a great way to integrate world cultures, teach about steady beat, teach rhythm, and it is great for large groups! Two thumbs way up for Rhythm Path!”
Mary Munguia, Bentley Elementary Music Teacher – Lamar CISD

“Rhythm Path is the best elementary music assembly available in Texas! I have had the pleasure of being apart of these interactive drum circles four times over my 12 years of teaching, and every time David provides a highly engaging and unique experience for my students that not only teaches them about music, but about WORLD music and its cultural significance to us all. It’s also the only program I’ve ever seen that gives EVERY participant the opportunity to play the WHOLE time! Your students don’t have to wait their turn for just a minute of play time, or hope they’re lucky enough to get picked to play out of the crowd. All my students and colleagues loved it and it’s worth every penny. Highly recommended!” Matt Lewis, Tamarron Elementary Music Teacher – Lamar CISD
