Drumming is therapy. It taps (no pun intended) into something inside that has been, since the very beginning. It has the energy of the source of things, it is healing. It is also very fun to hit things and make ‘beatiful’ noise!

My role as a percussion instructor allows me to impart the intricacies of drumming and hand percussion techniques to students across a variety of genres and styles.

It is the combination of innate performance qualities and my dedication to continuously learn and develop my craft that embodies my professional nature.

I tailor lessons to suit all abilities. Let’s take your hand drum and stick skills up a level!
