I like to set my students up for success. My job as a teacher is to help them reach their goals but also introduce them to other styles and methods that can lead to alternatives never before seen by them.

I have a long history of teaching students have the awesome task of teaching drums to quite the talented and those who work hard to achieve a level of musicianship that will compete with the top players. I started as a back up teacher for a colleague of mine in his studio and have been teaching for over 20 yrs in my home studio or the student's home studio. My teaching style is a combination of traditional rudiments, stick and control technique and practical listening and play a long drumming. Read More

My starting point for my students is typically having them practice posture, hand position and proper mouthpiece placement. After this has been satisfied, I have the students blow using a breathing exercise. From this, I have the students play the first three notes out of their Habits of Good Musician Book 1.

I believe that teaching and passing down knowledge is how society gets better, including music. Read More
