Drum Lessons in Bohemia, NY

For students I will show other people around their age playing the drums and after that I will show them the fundamentals of making a beat and staying on beat.

I see teaching that each student will be different and learn at different rates. Having work with all levels of students, I understand that and recognize that I want to tailor my lessons to the students needs so they can be most successful.
