We play Traditional West African rhythms as taught by Justine Hart, as well as other rhythms I've learned from many African teachers including some of Mamady Keita's new rhythms.
There are of course now countless rhythms on Youtube. Another excellent resource is Jim's Notes. See also some more rhythms and background info at other drumming websites.
Note that these rhythms should all be viewed with a fixed-width font, not a proportionally-spaced one, so that the different parts all line up horizontally underneath each other. Any decent browser should display them correctly, but printing may need some adjustments; best to use a word processor or text editor to fit them to the page size.
