AT THE START
When I was in middle school, I drooled over the high school drumline.
Everyday after school, I'd run out the back door of the band room, and watch them rehearse on the blacktop parking lot through the chain link fence. Perfectly in step, moving as a unit, the drumline lit a fire within me.
Hypnotized by their precision, I could not wait to begin playing left hand traditional.
For years, we had honed our "match grip" in beginning percussion class, and I was ready to start emulating the groups I looked up to.
I went on to play in my high school drumline, as well as many others. After years of watching, practicing, experimenting, refining, and teaching thousands of others how to play, here's what I've learned...
HOW
Fast-forward: years of private lessons, high school drumline, college band, and drum corps, I went on to teach the next generation in each of those phases, beginners to pros.
I've spent many years crafting not only how I go about playing myself, but how I teach others how to play as well.
The result is a streamlined video course with clear, easy instructions, helping you answer the most common questions I receive online and avoid the most common errors I see young players and teachers make.
WHO IS THIS COURSE FOR?
This is a course for beginner players, advanced players, and even teachers, where I share the step-by-step process of how I present this topic to private students, masterclasses, and summer band camps
Regardless of where you're starting, this will provide the foundation to perform at a World Class level.
You might be:
- A beginning player with aspirations of joining the drumline
- A percussionist who has primarily played keyboard instruments, and wants to explore the drumming side of percussion
- A tenor or bass player wanting to jam with your snare buddies
- A teacher who is looking for resources to teach their students
- A parent whose child is an enthusiastic music student looking for resources from a trusted and experienced teacher
