Newtown, CT Drum Lessons

I've been teaching drums and percussion for 10 years and my students have gone on to be accepted into top ensembles, record and produce tracks of their own, and have performance careers. Within the first few lessons, you'll be able to play basic rhythms on the drum set, and start recognizing different stylistic patterns. You'll also develop a strong sense of time. As time goes on you'll be able to play along to any song just by listening, and even create your own drum groove to new music! I specialize in rock, pop, and funk styles, typically use Joel Rothman's drum books as well as my own PDFs. I love working with students of all ages and experience levels and I can't wait to meet you!

Hello! I am a 22 year old musician based in the DC area who has been playing drums for almost 20 years. I mainly focus on the drumset and how to play with others or play along with the music you like. I can also teach theory, reading and different percussion instruments. In my studio I have two drumsets facing each other so I can show you things as we learn them, and we can jam together. I also have an electric guitar nearby that I can plug into for real world experience! The styles I specialize in are rock, punk, metal, pop, and latin. I like to cater the learning experience specifically to each student, because everyone wants something different out of there lessons. Tell me what you want to learn and I will work with you!
