Drum Lessons in Henefer, UT

Instruments: Drums

I teach music the same way language is learned, as both involve learning to listen, speak, write, and read. I start students off with the skill of listening as I demonstrate how the instrument is played, and then move them into "speaking" by guiding them in the basics of technique that will allow them to begin producing basic sounds. As the student learns to create original musical ideas, I help them learn how to write them down in musical notation, which ultimately serves their ability to read music. Read More

While I heavily stress learning good technique andreading notation, I think that drums need to be introduced with context. This makes the student aware of what the music needs from the drums and how it feels to play drums in an accompanying manner. So it is important to play time and hear how a beat accompanies theother instruments and how it works with the melody. Reading notation, rudiments, building hand technique, beginners usually start with Stick Control by George Lawrence Stone. Read More

To me drumming is the most fun you can have with a musical instrument, and that's how I want my lessons to be. Read More

I've been teaching drums for over 10 yrs. This included teaching at a music school and a music academy. I was taught by some great teachers, one of which teaches back east and is well known. He teaches all over the world online. I took his mentorship program and found it to be quite fun but challenging too. I've played in several bands that played shows and venues here in Utah.
