My main objective is to give students the tools they need to evolve and follow their artistic drive. The lessons are typically divided in two parts: 1) A "technical" part on the snare drum to work on technique and rudiments. 2) A "music" part on the drums exploring technique and musical applications. I have everything needed in the studio to play along with a metronome and tracks. I always encourage my students to bring songs that they want to perform or work on, so that I can help decrypt, understand and own their favorite type of music. Read More

I make an effort to get to know my students goals and current ability on their instrument so that I can play to their strengths and improve their weaknesses. Read More
