Drumming is so much more than simply hitting a drum. Drumming changes you. For centuries in Ghana the drum has been an integral part of life. It has been used for healing, calling people together, health and fitness, celebrations, sending messages and inner happiness. In Ghana drumming is our speaker, it is our voice.
- Bortier Okoe, Master Drummer, African Soul

As master drummer, light percussionist and skilled dancer, Bortier Okoe is a warm hearted natural teacher who brings to life the wonderful world of West Africa through his stories, his music, his voice and his soul.




As director of African Soul Gabrielle Okoe is passionate about sharing her experiences of Ghana with her fellow Australians.
