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.
