Drum Lessons San Bernardino County, CA

Finding a student's beginning skill level as well as interests is always the first step to making a lesson plan. I like to teach building blocks, make sure they are solid with those building blocks, then I introduce more complex ideas within the existing musical framework.

I began playing drums in 1994. In 1999, I joined my first band, which was blues/funk/rock. We had a ton of fun, recorded two albums in the studio, won a bunch of contests, played Hollywood and countless local gigs. Since then, I have recorded two more albums with various bands and have massive amounts of stage time as part of a live group. During that time, I have taught a few random people how to play or how to improve. Read More
