Over the years I have developed a method to practicing and getting the most out of your time that I believe will help you get better as a drummer, and most importantly, you will be able to apply what you learn as we go along. I feel the relationship between student and teacher should be a 50/50 mix of teaching and coaching. What I want to do with my students is take a concept, learn it, get it grooving then apply it in a musical setting within whatever genre you’re performing in.
Here’s a quick synopsis of my lesson plan:
- Emphasis on reading and understanding note values
- Application of the 26 American Standard Rudiments
- Phrasing
- Hand technique and foot technique
- Independence
- Playing with a metronome
Styles
Rock, Jazz, Afro/Cuban and Funk
Students will be given homework to practice
