****Lesson overview****

Adding a simple percussion instrument to your didgeridoo playing will add a whole new dimension to your sound. In this lesson, Sanshi shows you the first steps in playing with an egg shaker.

****Lesson goals****

-Get comfortable with shaking the egg shaker to keep an even rhythm

-Be able to accent the main beat in the egg shaker sound.

-Play the didgeridoo rhythm "dida (B) dida (B)" while keeping the rhythm on your shaker

****Training tips****
-This is a new co-ordination so it's ok if it feels very difficult to begin with

-Be sure to practice just with the shaker to get comfortable before adding your didgeridoo playing

-Keep your arm really relaxed to make shaking easier and feel more comfortable

-Experiment with the speed of the playing & shaking to find what speed feels to easiest to practice

-Try and lock into the accented beat. Focus matching up your didgeridoo timing with the main beats
