Helen Bond is a dynamic percussionist, teacher, & storyteller who has found music to be an inspiration and a source of strength and resiliency since her childhood. Since 2000, Helen has traveled regularly to Guinea, West Africa to study intricate musical traditions and culture of the Malinke people, whose ancestors created the djembe and dunun drums centuries ago. She also teaches at retreats, local schools, colleges, and universities. She is adjunct faculty at Lake Forest College where she teaches the “West African Drumming Ensemble” class. Helen offers classes in Guinean percussion music, drum facilitation, and gives storytelling performances.
