I'm in my 39th year of teaching private drum lessons, and I'm enjoying it more than I ever have. I've taught at Maytan's since March of 2000.
I'm a busy jobbing drummer, playing in several local bands. These groups range from big bands, playing swing music at jazz festivals, dances and concerts; to rock bands playing at special events, conventions and nightclubs. The "Maytan Soul Band, " a Tower of Power-inspired funk band with horns, is in its 7th year, doing free workshops and shows for local schools.
In my teaching, most of my background is in rudimental drumming, jazz and classical. I encourage my students to be strong in their reading skills. I prepare students for drum line, big band jazz, latin, tympani, mallets, rock and more.
I teach weeknight evenings beginning at 5pm, and I teach mid-days on Saturdays. I charge $25 for each half hour lesson.
