Instruments: Drums Mallet Percussion Orchestral Percussion Conga Latin Percussion
My teaching style adapts to the necessity, interest and pace of the students. If you are more interested in building a technique playing we can get very methodical studying from the books but if you really want to play, we are gonna play! A big part of my teaching is playing with the students or creating sequences (play alongs) so the student practices music in context. It could be frustrating and boring when technique is de-contextualized. Read More
Instruments: Drums
The one book I use for my students is Ted Reed's "Progressive Steps to Syncopation For The Modern Drummer". I use this book for my own benefit on a daily basis. Its interpretation and application is limited only by the student's or instructor's imagination. This book is such a great resource for assisting the student in learning basic reading skills. Once the student becomes familiar with recognizing certain rhythmic sequences, It enables them to study and learn from other publications with an increased level of facility. Read More
Instruments: Drums
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

Instruments: Drums Orchestral Percussion Music Djembe
My teaching style is aimed at celebrating each milestone my students achieve while simultaneously ensuring their progress to the next one. I believe in recognizing and rewarding their efforts, which builds confidence and motivation. To facilitate this, I often have my students work towards a specific project or song. This approach allows them to see tangible progress and realize how far theyve come as musicians. Using the George L. Stone stick control book as a foundational tool, I promote limb independence and improve technical skills. Read More
Instruments: Piano Clarinet Drums Mallet Percussion Orchestral Percussion Conga Latin Percussion Djembe
Nothing is more rewarding than seeing my students develop their own style in music and art. This progress happens at his or her own pace. Therefore, it is important that I set realistic goals per student. This leads to a positive teaching and learning environment. I truly believe that art, in this case music, is connected with life and therefore life is connected with art; What I am trying to say is that no matter what the level of the student is, when you teach and learn the right way, it goes way beyond music itself.

Instruments: Piano Drums Synthesizer Orchestral Percussion Keyboard
Yet with my older / more serious students I like to push them to reach a level of performance they didn't think they could get to! I also like to look at how what we learn on the drums relates to the bigger picture within the music music and within life. If you study with me, you will improve command of your instrument and learn how to make the music feel good, all in a positive atmosphere. Read More
