Lessons

I offer both private lessons in my home studio in Mentone (VIC), or online through Skype/Zoom for students around the world, to students aged 8 and above. I have taught private and online for over 20 years, and have taught in top Melbourne schools including St Leonard's College, MacRobertson Girls, Peninsula Grammar, Kilbreda College and more.

Private lessons are weekly, normally on Tuesday and Wednesday evenings. I teach everyone from raw beginners through to professionals. All you need to bring is a pair of sticks, and I can help you on a large range of topics, including:

* Basic stick and pedal technique, theory and reading
* Drumkit - all styles. Rock/Pop, Jazz, Latin, Rudimental etc
* Classical Percussion - orchestral instruments, 2 & 4 mallet playing, treble & bass clef etc
* Afro Cuban Percussion - congas, bongos, timbales, pandeiro etc
* Drummers wanting to learn to play songs for their band or perhaps online covers
* VCE students (I have 3 solos on the VCE syllabus, and 6 on the ANZCA syllabus)
* Trinity Guildhall, CPM and Rockschool
* University auditions for drumkit or percussion
* Theatre pit drumming

All students receive a free subscription to my Icanplaydrums.com PRO website, where all your weekly resources are stored (700 video lessons, 2,000 backing tracks, community of drummers etc) and everything is recorded in a digital practice diary, with resource links, so you always know what to practice week to week.
