You’re a pro with the cajón, Heidi! Thank you for that lesson!

I've just purchased a Cajon a few weeks ago and am in heaven, my musical buddies are really amazed at the versatility as well. I would just like to thank you very much Heidi for all of the resources you have so kindly made available. It is obvious that you truly love the giving/sharing aspects of music! Bless you and a very loving Christmas from Canada to you and your loved ones :)

Paul Hyoway -- Hey Heidi, I could listen to u all day long. You're the best and a great teacher too. Love your voice, you are so very talented. Wish you all the best.

Your sense of rythm is astonishing

just built a simple cajon (nice change from the accordion) and your lesson is very helpful... thank you so much for sharing your knowledge & talent.

Great help. Thank you for taking the time to help teach.

Great lessons, Heidi! Thank you for taking the time to do this.

Thank you, now I will play my cajon more! :) And I love your singing, too!

I think this is one of the best Cajon lessons on RU-vid. Cheers.

Omg yr British! Fell in love (a little) when I saw yr video on Facebook with the other top vocalist and Oz. OMG u need to bring that 'happiness' to England! Xx

Great rhythm lesson, the cajon is cool as hell and so are you. Keep rockin.

You are bad ass! I am in love with this instrument and you are to blame! You are an amazing artist, Thank you! Gonna get one of these for my birthday for myself (11-05) :D

Excellent teaching, just got my first cajon today, you gave me a level to aim for!

Wow! You are you are the groove master! Great funk, great singing. I learned a lot from you. I'll have to watch this video A LOT to do what you were doing. I understand it in my head, but I'll use this video as a guide for my hands.

Thank you ❤ My Dad had a Cajón, I played it once at his house all day. He said I could have it when I got my driver's license. Well, I did it. Got my driver's license. Now I have my Cajón ❤ And I don't know anything about it. This helped so much 😃 Thank you ❤

Thank you Heidi! That was a really helpful lesson for someone that's never played a canon before. Easy to follow and easy to apply.

Love your stuff. Thank you.

Enjoying the vibe on this one, keep it on fire!

awesome video Heidi! so well explained!!

Perfect Heidi, this is excellent. I'm a keys player and drummer who's shifting to acoustic duo/trio gigs, your technique and timing is excellent, thanks for the lesson!!!

Hey Heidi, your videos are really very helpful in learning cajon. thank you so much. i have recently started playing cajon....keep guiding

Heidi thank you so much for your lesson and presentation. And yes you are amazing. I want to show my wife this video.

Congratulations, Heid! Your channel is very good! I am learning Cajon with you.

I've just started playing cajon three days ago and this really helps me a lot!! ARIGATO

Loving your videos. It never occurred to me to sing and play drums at the same time. Always looking for a drummer for band stuff, and you've helped me make that hey- I can also be the drummer connection. Gotta practice!

my cajon almost here, and i cant wait to practice what i learnd from you, hope to be as good as you are

okay, going to buy one now!! thanks, Heidi!!!

Well it is really helpful, no more a noob now.Thanks Heidi!!

thank you so much for sharing lessons! I'm getting one tomorrow, I've decided. 😊

Hey!!! Great to hear! I am super happy to inspire! i'm working on a course for singing and playing cajon, keep an eye out for those vids!

Heidi, you are simply amazing. I'm directing all of my percussion students to your RU-vid channel. And your Cajon sounds fantastic; excellent quality sound.

Thank you SO MUCH for posting these!! I am finding your lessons so helpful!!

Received a Cajon for my birthday. - I'm having great fun playing my didgeridoo and cajon simultaneously!

Now I remember! Busking at Liverpool Street tube station. I'm learning the Cajon. Your vids are fantastic. Liked and subscribed.

congratulations Heidi. greetings from Peru. nice class on cajon.

Thank you, oh amazing teacher!

Very informative. Just bought one trying to expand my collection of instruments this helped me understand some basic beats and make a few for my recordings thank you very much.

I found your videos week ago and they truly are amazing and very pedagogigal

Hey Heidi. Love your beats and your style! :)

Really like your instructional vids, Heidi...simple, yet not "spoon-feeding", if you know what I mean. I just recently built my own cajon, after I had played for a band where the drum kit was, survey says, a cajon!! I learned the bodhran a few years back as I play a lot of Irish music, but I've always wanted a drum kit....now I have one! Thanks for your expertise with the cajon! I hope Fernando's Kitchen makes it to the states sooner rather than later!!

The cajón ! From Perú to the World !

this is really helping me too begin learning the Cajon, THANKYOU!!

i just got my new toy and ur stunning here...waiting more lesson Miss HEIDI :)

Great lesson for basics :) I didn't know this instrument and you made it cool and simple, thank you

I just started playing the Cajon yesterday, and this was super helpful! Thank you! :)

After recently purchasing a Cajon and making a few Bongo Cajons, you videos are really helping. Thanks for showing us some basic rythyms. I'll be happy if I can master a few of these ones and that's as far as I ever get.

Another really helpful, patient, lesson., Many thanks from far away in California!

Always good to learn while looking at pretty teacher...

I saw you on you tube with my great teacher..🤗.1had violin..Beautiful job.

Rhythm and beauty ........thanks for sharing

Wow, thank you! As a returning musician, i was looking for a percussion instrument to pick up, considering mainly the darbuka, tabla and cajon. While all are awesome instruments each in its own right, you've definitely swayed me towards the cajon as my first choice with this vid (I also write hip hop). Thanks again!

So simple yet so useful! Thank you for this class.

Great lesson,I've been playing drums for years and today I have to sit in on Cajon,I've never played them before and figured I could get the basics before the performance. Thank You so much. Hopefully I do OK.👍P.S. Your freaking Hot🌹

This is Perfect for beginners no doubt. cheers

Love it! Great use of the subdivisions as well as demonstration of your groups. You may want to explain a little more about the actual strokes-base versus slap versus mini slap for example. I love what you’re doing, though! Thanks so much for posting this.
