Hello .......I would recommend a variety of videos to start with,EX. Kalani videos,or Bobby Sanabria vol 1 and 2. Giovanni's first video. Bill Matthews Conga Joy video which I must say has a ton of rhythms that even I forgot I used to play so many congas ago. So u may want to start there until you can find yourself a mentor/teacher....At your Service ..JC JOHNNY CONGA...
