Meet Bern – Founder of Waraba Djembe
Waraba Djembe was founded by Bern, a lifelong percussionist and teacher. With over 30 years of experience studying West African rhythms, Bern began importing djembes to Canada so players could access authentic instruments without compromise. Every drum is carefully chosen, tested, and prepared under his supervision, blending tradition with modern service.
