Hi, my name is Lucas, and I'm excited to be a part of the Take Lessons team.
I've been teaching Music and Meditation since 2004, and have developed tools and techniques that make learning easy and fun.
Whether you are a complete beginner or seasoned pro, I am here to help you reach new levels in your practice, and to assist you in growing to your full potential.
I graduated from Musician's Institute of Hollywood CA, and earned a degree in Percussion in 2007. I'm an experienced and drive person and my teaching style is adaptable and effective.
I studied Meditation and Nutrition at the Optimum Health Institute San Diego, am Krya Yoga Certified, and Have taught workshops and events privately as well as for groups.
I am the #1 Best Selling author "Drum and Grow Rich", and "Lucid Meditation - Your Guide To Gaining Freedom, Focus, & Fulfillment". I wrote, played and produced a full length musical meditation album in the style of EDM, and am happy to help you create your own album too!
You will get huge take always from every lesson, because I really figure out what will help you progress the fastest towards your goals. I look forward to connecting, and helping guide you on your journey!

Certifications
Author Expert Marketing Machines(AEMM)
Nov 2013I received certification for completing the Author Expert Marketing Machines program. This program taught me how to write for marketing purposes, position myself as an expert in my field, and put what I know into an easy to package formula.
I can teach you how to take your specialized knowledge and put it into a simple yet effective package so that you can reach your clients, or audience and make more money as a musician.
Instant Customer Consultant
Nov 2013This a certification I earned for being proficient at marketing and consulting. I have adapted the information I learned here to the drums and music as a whole. I wrote a book and I am currently developing an online training program that teaches drummers to market themselves and earn money for playing the drums. It is based off of my #1 Best selling book "Drum and Grow Rich"
I am also offering lessons in person or online for marketing, sales, and writing. For more information please visit www.LukeRiver.com
