Description

Break Free. Find your own rhythm with Drumming Pro Mikolaj Rytowski!

Tired of being boxed in by school, expectations, or “the way things are done”?  Mikolaj Rytowski will teach how to stop following the rules and march to beat of your own drum. 

This isn’t about grades, credentials, or performing for approval. It's about creating the art you truly want to.

Step 1- Reclaim your Direction

  • Examine what school taught you: methods, assumptions, limitations
  • Drop what holds you back
  • Keep what is actually supporting your growth.

 Step 2- Sonic Exploration Lab

  • Explore sound as a way of listening, sensing, and responding to their environment.
  • Experiment collectively, without pressure to perform
  • Improvise with your fellow rule breakers.

 

Who is this for?

  • Creatives who feel stuck or in a box

  • Artists ready to trust their instincts

  • Anyone ready to explore outside traditional paths

No formal background required. Just curiosity and courage.

 

What you'll leave with?

  • A clear sense of your artistic direction

  • Confidence to create independently

  • Practical ways to break free from institutional expectations

  •
