Learn Drums With Me! Over 20 years of teaching & performing experience

Whether you're just starting out, or just wanting to learn Led Zeppelin, Foo Fighters, or even Taylor Swift songs, maybe you're preparing for band or college auditions, or just simply looking to broaden your playing with different styles like jazz, latin, etc., I am here to guide you and help you develop the necessary skills! I have been teaching drumset for over 20 years. My lessons focus on applying technique and reading, with snare reading exercises and learning popular songs. Lessons will adjust according to the student's level, pace, and goals. My goal for my students is to have an understanding on how to use their instrument, develop versatility, discover who they are as a musician, become independent learners, while having fun along the way!

Our Daughter picked an instructor after reading all the reviews and decided on Joan. She didn't want lessons, typical early teen "can learn it on my own", but we persisted and told her to just give it a chance. She thoroughly enjoyed her lesson from Joan and now can't wait for the next.

We cannot say enough about Joan. She is so talented, patient, funny, relatable, consistent, creative and caring. Joan has taught both of my kids for years. To keep both interested and engaged through preteen and now teenage years takes a gifted teacher. We would highly recommend her.
