Do zills make you anxious? Have you always wanted to learn, but wondered whether you’re coordinated enough? Or did you play a zillion years ago and need to shake off the cobwebs?
Come play with us. This two-hour workshop offers a relaxed introduction or refresher, with room to learn, laugh, and find your rhythm.
We’ll explore a brief history of zills, the different types and ways to play them, and two basic but essential patterns. Then we’ll put it together and practise walking and talking while we play. No previous zill experience is needed.

What to bring: Your own zills, a notebook, snacks, comfy layers, and a “can do” attitude. Anne-Marie and experienced friends may have spare zills to lend, but we can’t guarantee a pair for everyone.
Please avoid strong perfumes. Anne-Marie is allergic.
