Inspiring, Structured & Personalized Percussion Lessons
Hi! I’ve been teaching percussion for over 20 years, working with students of all ages and levels — from 4-year-old beginners who simply want to enjoy playing rock songs on the drums, to advanced musicians preparing for careers as orchestra players and soloists.
A Plan Designed Around You
Every student is different. That’s why I create a personalized learning plan based on your goals, interests, and level.
For hobby students
If your goal is to enjoy music and play your favorite songs or pieces, we’ll focus on:
-Building solid technical foundations
-Learning through engaging repertoire
-Playing along with high-quality backing tracks
-Developing rhythm, coordination, and musicality in a fun, motivating way
For professional students
If you aim to perform regularly — whether professionally or at a high amateur level — we’ll work with a structured and long-term approach:
-Comprehensive technical development plan
-Progressive and challenging repertoire
-Concert and audition preparation
-Mental training for musicians
I specialized in mental training and stage-fright management during my Master’s degree, and I integrate these tools to help you perform with confidence, focus, and artistic presence.
Whether you want to play for fun or pursue excellence at the highest level, I will guide you with clarity, experience, and a deep commitment to your musical growth.

My 10-year-old daughter has been taking percussion lessons and the experience has been fantastic. The teacher is patient, encouraging, and knows how to keep kids engaged while building solid musical foundations.
Lessons are fun but also structured, and we’ve seen great progress in rhythm, coordination, and confidence. My daughter always looks forward to each class.
Highly recommended for young beginners!View more recommendations
