Drum Lessons in Lantana, TX

Instruments: Drums

I want you to have something tangible to see that you CAN do this! the we dive into the first rudiments, get their technique even better, and get them started learning out of the book "Stick Control for the Snare Drummer" by George L Stone. I consider it essential for students to have great control of their hands and sticks before we really get to harder material. All lessons are taught with a metronome, and we up the tempo as we go.

For me, the most amazing aspect of teaching music is to assist students in developing a musical identity of their own. Nothing could be a greater blessing than to experience students cultivating a personal and profound relationship with the magic of music firsthand, and to be there to help them to further their passion is a gift beyond what I am capable of expressing in words. By sharing the musical knowledge I have gathered throughout my life in lessons that are dynamic and adaptable yet consistent in terms of supporting students' growth, it is my intention to help to nourish students' own love for music, just as others have inspired me to do the same.

My main goal and teaching is to inspire self motivation and make it fun! I like to pick songs that are fun to play and challenging at the same time depending on what level you are at that time. By doing this I think keeping the instrument out and not in the closet is a good start that way if the inspiration hits you and you want to play it is within your reach "guitar stand and wall hangers are ideal" and not in the case the put away " Out of sight out of mind" I suggest buying a music stand for your instruments and or wall hangers which seem to work very well as a display and also so the instrument is within your reach.

My style of teaching is simple, I want the student to have fun with it, but be challenged at the same time. I always start my lessons by finding out why the student wants to learn the drums, to me this is very important because it allows me to figure out the best way to teach the student, as well as keep it interesting for them. Nothing is more important to me than seeing a student reach his or her personal goals on the instrument so, I do my best to help them accomplish them. Read More
