The Emotional Tour Experience Logistics Checklist
Choose a location venue
Research local dance/yoga/creative studios, event spaces, halls, use your network
Typical pricing should be between $30 - $60 per hour (bigger spaces will be more - see if you can get a deal or discount if you plan to come back monthly)
Make a list of places near to you and keep it for future reference
Feel free to share your discoveries with the TEI Attuned group or submit it to ??? to add to the Teacher’s Library on our website.
Make sure location is comfortable and aware of live drumming
Verify what type of AV/sound system are available or do you need to bring your own
Sprung wood floors are ideal for comfort (concrete & carpeted floor can be difficult to move on)
Choose a date / Confirm with venue
Availability is Key - Choose a couple of dates in case the venue you love is not available on your first choice
Choose a drummer
There are drummers listed in the Teacher’s Library in LA, SF, Salt Lake City, & New York
Finding a Djembe drummer locally can be done through social media groups, platforms and networks such as Facebook, Meetup, Google, & Craigslist. Reach out to fellow TEI Attuned
