Teaching kids the joy of music the simple, fun, innovative,
“We Got the Beat” way!
CHECK OUT OUR EXCITING PROGRAMS
We Got the Beat is a fun, interactive, hands-on, musical experience for students in 1st to 12th grade from the greater Fresno/Clovis Metropolitan area. Lead by local musician and educator, Brenda Myers, WGTB is made up of three distinct programs: Adventures in Drumming, Summer Drum Camp, and We Got The Beat Youth Percussion Band.
The mission of WGTB is to provide a comprehensive musical experience for children that enriches both the individual and the community. Our vision is to develop music appreciation, performance skills, and proficiency on diverse percussion instruments while providing life skills that will take children well-beyond their WGTB experience. We promote creativity through improvisation and composition while teaching responsibility, cooperation, leadership and teamwork through instrument care, practice, solo, and group performance.
Our son has been a part of We Got The Beat for just one year so far and we have watched him blossom in ways we couldn’t have imagined. Drumming and music have become a wonderful avenue for creatively expressing himself, improving his confidence, and giving him a passion for working together with others to create music and more!

I love being in We Got the Beat because the songs we play are really fun and I’ve met some cool people that became my friends. The directors are really nice and help me to understand music so much better and in new ways.
Milo F. – Beater
We Got the Beat has given our son the skills and confidence not just to play multiple instruments but to create his own music. Brenda, Roman, and the rest of the WGTB staff create a fun learning environment where the kids learn more than just music; they learn teamwork, cooperation, and what it means to be part of a band.
