BAC Beatbox Academy

A collaboration between BAC, Shlomo and AFTM to create a regular beatbox class in South London.

The Beatbox Academy is an outreach project set up by Shlomo and BAC. Four weeks of workshops in schools and youth clubs are followed by a five week course, every Saturday at BAC. Students are taught a range of musical and vocal skills, using beatbox as a focus to work on both solo and group performance techniques. There are visits from guest tutors from the beatbox scene, and participants record a performance for a DVD as well as putting on a show for friends and family. The BAC Beatbox Academy launched fully in January 2009.
