Instruments: Piano, Cello, Drums, Conga, Latin Percussion, Djembe

I find that as useful as many of the methods that I have found most useful for my own performance are, almost every one of my students in drums, percussion and cello requires a different blend of study materials. As a general rule, I rely on providing a balance of classic (some teachers go as far as to say 'canonical') books, and a wide variety of unique listening and independence exercises I've developed over the years.

I strive to remain open and adaptable to each student's personality and playing style. I take a relaxed, focused approach to discipline so as to keep a positive environment and a positive connection to the instrument.
