    Learn how to play your first drum set beat in your first lesson, from a real touring drummer!

    I came up with a unique teaching method, called the "A,B,C, Aproach To Learning Drums!" It works for all styles of drumming. "If you can sing your A,B,C's, I can teach you drums. Experienced teacher of 35 + years, specializing in the beginner/intermediate drum students! All ages are welcomed. Lessons are customized and catered to the needs/goals of each student. I'm the type of teacher that will make sure you fully understand everything we do/ playing wise or theory wise. Not only will you be playing the kit and gaining independence in no time, but you will be building a strong foundation of note reading, music theory, ear training, sight reading, technique, and much more. But most importantly you are having fun. Are you Ready?

    David was my son’s teacher for many years! We found him through a recommendation from Guitar center where we bought drums for our son Spencer. I would attend so many drum sessions and wait at his house while Spence learned. We have seen David play a few times over the years as well. David is amazing at his craft and one of the best drum players out there. As he used to call my kid his little rockstar, that sure stands true for Dave….a rockstar through and through! Misti Bell

    David taught my son private drum lessons for a few years. He was a fantastic teacher with great energy and positive attitude. He exceeded our expectations. My son learned so much from him and always looked forward to his drum lessons with David. I highly recommend David!

    While I have not personally taken lessons from this legend. I have watched (many times over) some of his workshops he has put on and seen him live behind the kit and he is phenomenal in every aspect. Not just a great musician but an awesome human being, sat outside his show with me when they played grants pass Oregon last year and just chatted about drumming with me. Now that I’m aware he is on this platform you better believe once I can k will be taking lessons to further my skills.
