I don't know if many women take up the doumbek/darbuka, but, at 53, I hate that I am just now discovering it. Where has it been all the years of my life? Good thing we're never too old to learn something new, right? Thank you, young man for posting these lessons. You are an awesome teacher. I must be improving too, because the cats have stopped running away when I pick up the drum. When I have mastered the rhythm in this first lesson, I'll definitely move on to the next lesson... and the next lesson... and the next. This instrument is a joy... and so is your teaching. You are a gift. Again, thank you.
How itsgoin
@@Peter-tg8kh Thanks for asking. I'm not fast yet, but my accuracy and muscle memory are much improved. I will worry about doing it well before doing it quickly. :)
Well I'm 57 & just taken up learning the Doumbek. My arthritic hands not like it, but I love it. 😆
I'd like to learn how to play darbuka as well. 😂 This lesson is amazing. I'm looking forward to start. I'm still waiting for my instrument.. 🤩
I'm also a woman and learning how to play the darbuka. I wish more women were playing it, it's so much fun! Hope you're still playing it.
I’ve been searching for 1 month i have almost seen all darbuka lessons on youtube and this guy is the best.
I'll take your name as good property to say that.
Same here man
@@rafaelr.2228 lol hahahaha
Where’s the 5th part? Or 4th
The whole same shit!😉 I actually think that I’m found the best teacher from who I really want to learn😍 my only one problem is that I have the “aluminum” Darbuka with straight borders. But I couldn’t find anything in terms of tutorials for that kind of Darbuka.. I mean, the playing basics should be the same, But the fine-tuning details are different -I realized it when I was testing this kind of “doumbek” in comparison to one of mine… Even though the playing feeling is also different & sound, so I’ve definitely decided to buy another one))) and now I’m really happy to find the best tutorial on youtube😍
Great teacher. He took the time to say “listen to yourself and ask, ‘did that sound good?’”
I am 56 yrs old, wanted to learn this instrument from long, love the way you teach, thank you, I will practice for a week...Doum Ka Tek Ka Doum Ka Slap😊, God bless you
As an educator, this gentleman Ibrahim Malik has done an excellent job teaching everything you need to know as a beginner.
Bravo bravo bravo
Yeah agreed - seen all the videos. He gives all the small aspects like "take a week" "look in the mirror" "your finger will be weak, make a sound anyway"
These reassurances are needed for beginners!
Thanks Malik Team
No one explained the Slap better than you. Subscribed.
Exactly what I was looking for, a step-by-step vid on proper technique. Very well explained. Keep 'em coming!
Glad you enjoyed it! More videos to come!

You would be a very successful Russel Brand impersonator! You sound so much like him and your mannerisms are spot on. 😆
Love your videos❤
Excellent instruction!
Ah thank you so much.

Hi Malik! This is an amazing tutorial. 🙏👏 I can't wait to get my barbuka to practice. Does the size of darbuka matter ? I ordered 11 inches (medium size). Your website link doesn't work. 😉
Yes, there is a video covering exactly this on my channel, supplement C. Check out the Darbuka Mastery Program on my channel homepage for more!
💚
You are a good teacher. I have learnt all ur techniques easily. Thank you. 😊
how long did it take you if you don't mind sharing? I am starting new and try to practise daily for 30 mns. Started 1 week ago 🙂
@@babill6 keep it going. I play Darbuka every day. Started last year and progressed rapidly. Ibraheem is a superb teacher.
@@Dave_The_Beatmaker thank you mate for your encouragements
I want to bye a tarabuka to practice on your advises. Could you say what to buy? I know nothing!!!
Congratulations, great lesson !!!! 👏👏👏
not only is he expleing well but also very handsome , hyhy🙃🙃🙃
Yep, my ka was incredibly weak. Great to have this precise and succinct instruction. You made my morning. Love this instrument.
Glad it helped. There is a video out specifically on the Ka. Lesson 7. Check out the Darbuka Mastery Program on my channel homepage!
👍👍👍👏👏👏👏👏
I'm really enjoying your series! Very clear and engaging--love it!
My main problem now seems to be posture...
I've been playing djembe for years but just picked up darbuka, and I'm having problems with my right shoulder getting tired and sore after 15-20 minutes of practice.
I assume there's something wrong with my posture, but I can't seem to figure it out. Relaxing/dropping my shoulder hasn't seemed to make much difference, and I'm pretty sure years of djembe would have conditioned my muscles better than this by now. Any advice?
Fking hate learning the Ka but thanks for the video matey

| had to stop playing the darbuka, neighbors complain too much.
Gratitude Brother! One bad issue: It is when I place my left arm ( with the side of the elbow touching the drum body) to support the darbuka and keep it in place while playing. I'm trying to place the arm the same way I see you doing it. If I play the KA, there is a nerve in the elbow that moves while attacking the left hand into the drum and it hurts in the elbow (very sharp pain for an instant because it lightly hits the body of the darbuka). Is this happens only with me or there's a trick to avoid that pinch in the elbow's nerve? Thanks for sharing precious information! You're the best!
Just play with the arm position to find a comfortable spot that avoids the problem. Try to slightly lift your elbow when you strike.
