Why my drum lessons stand out!
My drum lessons are designed to inspire you to approach learning with a smile and spark creativity in your life. Using my gamified approach, you’ll learn faster, dive deeper, and enjoy every lesson. Whether it’s mastering your favorite songs, increasing your playing speed, or improving sound quality, my focus is on helping you achieve your drumming goals.

​

You’ll also learn healthy techniques to avoid injury, gain the tools to teach yourself, and craft your own rhythmic voice. With personalized guidance on your playing style, practice routine, and drum kit setup, you’ll save time and avoid the frustration of figuring it all out on your own.

​

As a professional drummer with years of experience in the music industry, I offer expert insight, real-life experience, and valuable connections to help you grow not just as a drummer but as a musician. Whether you’re a beginner or looking to take your skills to the next level, I’m here to help you succeed.

The power of in person lessons!
In-person lessons are the most personal and effective way to learn drums. You get instant feedback on your progress, motivation when you need it, and the unique experience of playing music together in real time. During our one-on-one sessions, I can closely monitor your technique and posture, ensuring you’re practicing properly and efficiently.

​

Face-to-face learning creates a stronger connection to what you’re learning, helps reduce distractions, and makes the process much more enjoyable. It’s the perfect way to stay focused, improve faster, and truly have fun while mastering the drums!

The flexibility of online lessons!
Online lessons are perfect for students who know what they want to learn but need guidance and motivation to take their skills to the next level. I can see how you’ve set up your drum kit at home and offer suggestions to optimize your practice space for an effective learning environment.

Without leaving your house, you’ll get motivated to practice, learn new songs, and improve your drumming skills. All you need is a drum setup and a laptop or tablet with a webcam and microphone. Even if you only have a pair of sticks, a practice pad, and a computer, there’s still so much to learn about drumming without all the extra gear.

The best of both: At-home lessons!
At-home lessons offer the perfect balance between professional guidance and the convenience of learning in your own space. You’ll receive a personalized look at your home setup with face-to-face communication—without the hassle of internet latency. This style of lesson is ideal for those seeking extra attention while staying in the comfort of their own home.

​

At-home lessons are particularly suited for young students who benefit from a familiar environment and parental supervision. Availability depends on your location, and lesson rates vary based on travel distance.
