Drum Lessons Utah

Instruments: Drums, Bass Guitar

For any lesson I prefer to have two drum kits, side by side, so that my student can see exactly what I'm doing (posture, form, etc).

I treat the lesson time as if it was a piece of music. 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.

My teaching style is rooted in the philosophy that if you keep explanations simple then understanding is easy. Playing drums is not easy but it is not complicated either. I find that it is important to work on making a sound from the instrument as soon as possible, thats why often times the first drumset lesson will include learning a beat on the drumset. Anyone has the potential to be able to play, and anyone can reap the benefits from practicing a new skill. Read More
