A different kind of teaching
When I opened the groups, my vision was to create the same process I have been teaching my private students — but in a group format. No more isolated workshops that give only a small taste of the instrument and the teacher.
Instead: a long, deep and thorough process that will metamorph every aspect of the students' playing. I took a whole year to write and compose countless compositions, technique exercises and independence challenges for this process.
Having taught over 1,700 group lessons since 2021, I can say with complete confidence: this process works — and it works deeply.
Many students come to me having studied percussion elsewhere — in other online programs, workshops, or with private teachers. What they consistently discover, after a few months here, is that something fundamental is different: not just the content, but the system behind it, the depth of the musical thinking, the progression. I built this to address a gap I saw clearly — and there is still nothing else like it available for these instruments online.
"I developed this method because I wanted to give students what I was looking for myself — a complete path, not just a collection of lessons."
