Drumming for all ages and skill levels! Whether you are getting ready to play a show, getting ready for an audition, or are just playing drums as a hobby, I am here to teach you! With material from a wide range of sources i.e books, your favorite records, or videos from another drummer you idolize, you will master the art in no time. In my lessons you will learn to understand drum notation, read a drum chart, learn a song by ear and hopefully apply these to write your own songs! We will also cover concepts like stage presence so you can feel comfortable performing. Learning material in the drum shed is just half the battle, the other half is taking it to the stage and performing in front of an audience with your band. I am here to get those stage fright jitters out of your system so you can feel confident when you walk out on to that stage to rock.

I have taught drums for eight years, and strive to provide each student with exactly what they need to excel.

I teach based on each individual student in order to provide you with the best and most fun learning experience.
About Athan
Hello potential students! I have been teaching music for over eight years, and love teaching as much as music itself. As someone who started late (began drumming at age 16), and quickly progressed from complete (i.e. terrible) beginner to studying at nationally ranked CSU Northridge's jazz program,

My drum lessons are the most fun for many reasons. I focus you on the music you love, stay as far away from boring material as possible, while teaching you the most important aspects of drumming such as technique, hand positions, posture, pocket, feel, timing, ect. But I use music as the guidance system. We will cover drum rudiments, we will cover different genres like Rock, Pop, Metal, Hip Hop, Classic Rock, Reggae, EDM. We will have a blast.

This is it! Michael C. is it! I have taught music for years and I have watched my children take music lessons for years, but I have never been so impressed as when I watch Michael C.! My son has been taking lessons with Michael C. for a few months now and without fail he is always so sad whenever Michael's lessons comes to a close. Michael C. has developed his own - (that's right his own work sheets, his own methodology, his own songs) - style of teaching that is so incredibly fun for my son, and as a parent watching I cannot stop wanting to pull out my phone to take video of every moment! My son is learning and building a foundation based on the clear fundamentals of drumming, while at the same time learning how to really control the drum set at a very high level of musicianship. What my son has learned, and how much Michael is able to motivate my son to achieve is simply unbelievable. I have never witnessed a teacher who is this concise and thorough in teaching the core fundamentals and yet so creative and fun in teaching REAL MUSICALITY! Michael C. is a must for your child or students! This guy and his teaching methods are exactly what a parent dreams for their child to experience in a drum teacher."


Great personality as well."
