Here you'll find information on my teaching program, Drumline Classes,
The Student Center and Teen Workshops.
As a drummer/educatorI believe there are 3 basic, yet important skills that help make a
great drummer.
Time
Reading
Good Technique
These are all featured in my program along with feel, groove, and hand/foot coordination.
In addition, playing and listening to all types of music increase our musical vocabulary
and are essential qualities to becoming a versatile musician. These concepts will help you create your own style while becoming comfortable in almost
any setting. Playing musically and with feeling are paramount.
The Studio at Drum World is multi-media, incorporating web to enhance the lessons. When a student reaches a certain level of proficiency, he/she will be able to download
their favorite songs directly to the studio and work on it. (We have a lot of fun doin' that!)
Play-along tracks (music minus drums) are also prominent in my program.
Learning some history of the drums and its respective players is also important in
creating respect and dedication for the instrument one has chosen to play.
The Student Center is my favorite page on the site and is dedicated to students
achievements and musical activities.
Lessons can be reserved and booked with the Book Now button on that page which will
give you current schedule availability.
If you'd like more information on my professional background, please feel free to Google
my name. Reviews of my practice can be accessed by going to www.teachstreet.com.
Last but not least, I would like to acknowledge my current and former students...
you guys are the best!You make what I do worthwhile.
