0Tap your palms together and say the syllables repeatedly: you get a beat of 4 cycles.
'ta-ka-di-mi' one tap for each 'taka', keep saying these repeatedly, with all of the vowels being short and each of the ta ka, di and mi being of same syllable duration in time.
'ta - ki- ta' this will give you 3 beat tala cycle.
It goes 'ta-ki-ta-ta-ki-ta-ta-ki-ta-ta-ki-ta-ta-ki-ta' and so on
'ta-ka-ta-ki-ta' gives you the basic 5-beat cycle.
