Drum Lessons Mountain

Instruments: Drums

Above all, Music should be fun! I love sharing my passion for music with everyone, especially my students. As well as studying what the student is enjoying lately, I would like my students to get a feel for and listen to many different styles of music so they will be able to play almost anything, and hopefully get a wider appreciation and understanding of music in it's many forms. For my beginning students I start with the basics and we progress as they develop their skills. Read More

Instruments: Drums

I am a talented drummer looking to kick-start my career in music instruction. Now that I'm retired I have the time to follow something I've always wanted to do - to give back to the music community my experience as a working musician. With my leadership abilities and knowledge can create engaging lessons, with fun and insightful activities. I have been playing rock, funk, jazz and Latin on and off since 1976 - yeah, I might be older, but I'm still young at heart and can rock the house on any given night. Read More

Instruments: Piano, Guitar, Voice, Drums, Bass Guitar, Synthesizer, Ukulele, Music, Keyboard, Electric Guitar, Acoustic Guitar

Depending on the instrument and skill levels of the student I have different methods. For guitarists I typically like to start by learning techniques and building strength in their fingers before we move into theoretical concepts. For pianists I begin with technique but with also teaching them the musical staff and getting them started with reading music. Ultimately my method depends on the individual needs of the student. The lesson is always aimed at having the most fun as possible, all while learning and expanding our musical knowledge. Read More
