My teaching experience has ranged from showing folks how to hold drum sticks and execute drum rolls to showing folks how to play hyper complex polyrhythmic prog metal songs. I am a very open and empathetic teacher who is sure to work well with anyone who has an actual drive to learn the drums and become a better drummer over time. My teaching philosophy is to ALWAYS practice drums with music. Read More

For Beginners, I usually begin with very rudimentary stick control patterns to get used to how the stick feels in the hands. As the lessons progress, then I will instruct patterns on drumset if wanted. The student can request whatever style of drumming they would like to delve into, anywhere from latin percussion to jazz drumset. I like to keep lessons fun and engaging for students of all skill levels and ages, so along with assignments I will come up with improvised grooves and patterns on the spot Read More

I wonder sometimes if I don't get more excited about a student's breakthrough than he does! My wife sometimes tells me I have no "indoor voice," lol. I don't give grades (except for my college students, because I have to), but if I did, the grade would be either "A" or "I," as in incomplete, as in do it over until it's great. Read More
