Benefits of learning beatbox?
-
Save the cost of musical instruments: Generally learning music such as: piano, violin, guitar, jazz drums, etc., you need to spend a lot of money to buy musical instruments.
-
Unhindered by space: When buying a musical instrument, you need to consider the size of the indoor space. In many cases, a small home cannot accommodate a piano and a set of drums for students to practice, only renting a room for practice. On the contrary, learning the Beatbox’s instrument is just the mouth, there is no problem of space.

You can practice at any time: Unlike ordinary musical instruments that need to be practiced in one place, Beatbox's practice is very fluid. You can take a ride, take a shower, go to school, travel, and exercise.

No age limit: people of any age are suitable for learning beatbox, as long as you follow the classroom method to practice, you can master beatbox skills.

No basic music knowledge required: You don’t need to read five-line notation or six-line notation to learn beatbox. It mainly depends on listening to memorize the music and rhythm, and then think through the brain and recreate it with the mouth in real time. This very direct learning mode is more effective.

Beatbox mainly uses the mouth, tongue, teeth and facial muscles to create rhythm and melody, and rarely involves the use of vocal cords, so students who do not know how to sing can get results as long as they practice.
