Dan: Lessons with me will help you improve your technique, your dexterity, your speed, your confidence and will help you get to the point where your hands and feet can easily make the things you hear in your head happen on the drum set.

Specifically I will analyze your hand technique and recommend exercises based on the Moeller stroke that will help you groove better and play more dynamically and effortlessly. We'll work on exercises that will increase your independence and we'll transcribe and recreate memorable drum parts as well as learn songs that you may want to play. Ultimately, the lessons are your time and we can spend them working on what you want to work on, but all lessons will include a concentration on improving technique.

Drummers that have inspired me the most are: Joe Bergamini (my teacher of everything scholastically drum related that I know), Vinnie Colaiuta, Thomas Pridgen, Steve Gadd, Jon Theodore, Neil Peart, John Bonham, Rodney Holmes, Gavin Harrison, Danny Carey, Steve Smith, Dom Famularo, Matt Cameron, Tim Alexander, Mike Mangini, Terry Bozzio, Dennis Chambers, Carter Beauford, Buddy Rich, Billy Cobham, Tony Williams...
