I start beginners with the drum rudiments and chart reading. This gets them able to move their hands and feet for better coordination.

I strive to provide students with the tools needed to master musical skills. I also strive to be creative, nurturing and most of all, patient.

I strongly believe that repetition and practice is the key to great success and i use that belief to make sure that the material is learned as well as retained. Read More
