This is where I think it is fun to be creative because we are all different. Everybody has a different method of interpretation and I feel like that is my job to figure out what works for you as an individual. For example I will simply ask you questions like what style of music are you listening to and songs you want to learn how to play. It is also my job to know the difficulty level and how to guide you in the right direction to keep things fun! Read More
Instruments: Guitar Trombone Drums Orchestral Percussion Djembe
I try to keep things lighthearted and fun, but also demand a lot from my students and hope for regular practice to push them to new heights. Music is fun, but with hard work the lessons will pay off with the reward of improved music ability. I always incorporate music that the student is interested in and challenge them to be able to play their favorite songs. I tailor my lessons to fit the needs of the student, and cater to all different types of students. Read More

Instruments: Drums Mallet Percussion Orchestral Percussion
My style of teaching is simple, I want the student to have fun with it, but be challenged at the same time. I always start my lessons by finding out why the student wants to learn the drums, to me this is very important because it allows me to figure out the best way to teach the student, as well as keep it interesting for them. Nothing is more important to me than seeing a student reach his or her personal goals on the instrument so, I do my best to help them accomplish them. Read More
Instruments: Drums
Drumming is all about repetition, and without that, drumming (and every instrument) is hard to learn! I have between lesson plans for all levels. After the first lesson, I get my students the book "Stick Control for the Snare Drummer" by George L Stone. I consider it essential for students to have great control of their hands and sticks before we really get to harder material. All lessons are taught with a metronome, and we up the tempo as we go.

How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
They're ready.
Music is another language and expands the creative part of the mind by exploring new things and new ideas. Especially if your child has a lot of energy, we can channel that energy into something positive and wholesome.
I hear way too often from people "Man, I wish I would've sticked with it" or "I wish I knew how to play an instrument." Well this your opportunity to give your child that extra advantage in the world and understand a language that everyone around the world understands.
When will I start to see results?
It depends on how often the student practices.
Generally, if you were to practice everyday for an hour..you would probably see tremendous results within two weeks.
It's like any practice. If you go to the gym once a week, how are you gonna expect any results. But if you eat right, work out 4-5 times out of the week, I'm sure you'll see results a lot sooner.
Going into the practice session with a positive, relaxed mindset always helps too. At the end of the day, it's just music..it's supposed to be fun and enjoyable.
Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
When I was 14-years-old, I went to a summer camp in Michigan known as the Interlochen Fine Arts Camp. I was fortunate enough to make the jazz band as a drummer and one day, this man came into class and was teaching me how to play the "Sing, Sing, Sing" rhythm on the floor tom. The amount of sound and clarity he had while demonstrating this to me blew me away and was truly inspiring.
Little did I know that the man who was teaching me that rhythm was world renowned drummer Peter Erskine, the drummer for Weather Report.
It was at that moment I realized that maybe I outta stick with this music thing.
What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
Slow and with a metronome.
It also depends on the music. Thinking about the other players parts help too so you're not playing so loud and playing with a nice, balanced tone.
Listening to recordings also help too. If you go on YouTube and find a professional muscian (preferably not a high school or college student) but a video that's had a ton of views and a lot of good feedback would help.
Clearing out all distractions will help too. Putting your phone on airplane mode and dedicating a full hour or two to your practice will put you in a good headspace.
Always end on a good note in the practice session. End on something were you feel like you've accomplished something because if not, you're not going to want to practice and we don't want that.
