"Best place to learn Djembe, whether you're a total beginner or advanced or just want to feel the beat. Jayesh Sir is an amazing percussionist, full of energy and creativity. He makes learning easy and super fun. Thankyou Sir, it was a great experience."

"One of the best experiences of ‘Making Music’ , learning to sync as a team and create magic through Djambé. The Goa Drum Circle , lead by Mr Jayesh Joshi, the amazing percussionist, is one of those energetic music sessions where you get to learn a new instrument, have an amazing vibe going around and i am sure as an individual player or in a team , there are many ‘goosebumps’ moments that will appear as you play in Unison and get mesmerised. Our Corporate team of 34 people from Bengaluru thoroughly enjoyed their session. Thanks to Shiva Yoga centre at Arambol for helping out with our event and to provide us their wonderful location. I shall recommend any teams or solo players to get in touch with Mr Jayesh Joshi and his team and relish this astounding joy of ‘Goa Drum Circle’ .
As they say in their African song play- its Peaceful , bringing harmony, Great Vibes and Good energies!"
