About Us
El Ritmo Drum and Bugle Corps is the dreamchild of Three guys in the San Joaquin Valley looking for a way to educate local Marching Band, Color Guard and Percussion instructors to ready them to be able to come in and teach our local programs.
It is also a way to give back to our communities by offering the youth of the San Joaquin Valley a performance opportunity. Our vision is to field an Independent A Winter Guard for the 2023 Winter Season so that we can get our name out and give us time to fund a Drum Line and Drum Corps. In subsequent years, we will be adding first, a Winter Percussion Ensemble and then a Drum and Bugle Corps.
