Beginning, Intermediate and Advanced Lessons
Welcome to my site!
Here you'll find information about lessons, workshops, music events and drumline classes.
I believe there are 3 basic, yet important skills that help make a great drummer.
Time
Reading
Good Technique
My curriculum addresses these fundamentals in a detailed way, along with ear training and playing different types of music. These concepts will help broaden your musical vocabulary and also help you become a more versatile musician.
The studio at Drum World is multimedia and incorporates the web to enhance the lessons, so when a student reaches a certain level of proficiency, they will be able to play along with their favorite tracks off the web as we can mix the drums right along with the song. We have a lot of fun doin' that! My students range in age from 7 years old to adult law enforcement officers...the one thing they all have in common is their love of the drums!
If you'd like to find out about my professional background, please feel free to check my Bio page, visit Linkedin or Google my name. To see reviews and references from students, parents and educators, please visit the Review Page.
You can now book and reschedule lessons online by clicking the Book Now button above and students can also remit for tuition using PayPal on the Student Policy Page.
