I'm open to all things creative. From Mozart to Metallica, I listen to all styles of Music...This openess is how I approach life...In learning, creativity, and discovery. Learning how to read Percussive music, studying with some of the greatest Drummers in the world, learning how to write music, and learning how to play Rock - Jazz - Latin.

I was born in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil in 1962 and I have been passionate about music, especially drumming since I was a toddler. My mother used to take me along to her aerobics classes and at that time a drummer would play a drum to keep a beat for the class instead of having recorded music playing through the speakers. I was absolutely fascinated by his drum beats and I was always trying to play along with the drummer during the class. Read More

In the first lesson I will take the time to find out what kind of music you are interested in playing. At that point, I will offer exercises and grooves for you to work on in that genre, as well as other fundamentals for the building blocks of the foundation of music you will be able to play. We can also find certain songs that you might be interested in playing and work on grooves/fills for said songs in addition to the Two Sound Level Technique broken down by David Garibaldi (Tower of Power) http://books.google.com/books/about/Future_Sounds.html?id=3V9xJIMYfxEC.I specialize in Funk, Latin, Fusion, Jazz, Rock, Reggae, R+B and Soul.

For beginner students I usually begin with listening exercises. We will listen to music and talk about what the drummer is doing, and how we can de-construct that. From there we talk about how that looks written down on paper and explore the basics of drum notation. Within this we will also talk about proper technique. For adults, or students with more experience, i will try to find out where their skills are and what they are interested in learning from me. Read More

My students can expect a fun and laid back learning experience. The initial phases will consist of really getting to know YOU and exploring your interest and personal goals as a drummer. Whether you are just starting out, looking to improve existing skills, or aspiring to become a professional musician, together we can build the foundation required to achieve your goals. I find it very important to learn the traditional rhythms and styles in every genre of music, then learn how to minipulate and break those musical rules and combine different aspects together to make something new and exciting.
