My teaching experience began over a decade ago, working with students of different ages and skill levels who wanted to explore rhythm and drums. Over the last few years, Ive been teaching private lessons both in-person and online, with a focus on making drumming approachable and fun for everyone, from complete beginners to more advanced players interested in jazz and Afro-Cuban styles. For younger students, I emphasize consistent practice habits and celebrate every milestone to keep motivation high. Read More
