Drum Lessons Florida

Instruments: Drums, Mallet Percussion, Orchestral Percussion, Music, Djembe

My teaching style is very high energy, fun, and rewarding. Watching students grow in confidence as they progress is my favorite part of being a teacher. In the arts, we are always being criticized. For example, how can one person love a song/band and another one feel they are horrible? We all have a preference to what we like and I feel we should only judge ourselves by where we have been and where we are at currently. Read More

Instruments: Piano, Trombone, Drums, Synthesizer, Euphonium, Keyboard

My first teaching experiences were with my father during solo and ensemble. Having hired me as an accompanist for his students, I found myself rehearsing these students moreso than accompanying them. From that point I felt encouraged to teach and help others perfect their craft. My biggest influences would have to be my past teachers, one of which taught me younger and the other as I matured.

Instruments: Drums, Acoustic Guitar

I have been a touring musician for the past 15 years. Now that I’m local I’d love the opportunity to give back and help bridge the gap between the professional working working world and budding musicians. I have an Associate’s degree in Professional Music and years and years of experience both as a drummer and an acoustic guitar player. The music world is like no other. It’s not for everyone.

Instruments: Guitar, Drums, Mallet Percussion, Orchestral Percussion, Conga, Latin Percussion, Djembe

Seeing a student take on a challenging piece is more rewarding to me than anything. When I see a student struggling, I will offer the techniques that I would typically use, however there is no ONE right way to do everything. I encourage independent learning and going beyond the lesson. IF A STUDENT ONLY IS PRACTICING WHILE IN THE LESSON, WE CANNOT ADVANCE AS QUICKLY AS I PLAN. This will result in repeating lessons, which I avoid at all costs. Read More

I have been teaching guitar and piano to many different students. I love to teach and I think that it is one of the most wonderful things in life. I have been playing in shows since 1999, performing styles from classical music to blues, jazz and rock. I love to play and record live. Read More
