My goal is to get you as good as I can as quickly as I can under my tutelage, and I am happy to refer you onto different perspectives and teachers if need-be (ie if you want to get heavy/advanced into something that is not my speciality, like samba, I will refer you to a very good brazilian specialist). -I want my students to drum happily on the highest level, achieved at each students unique pace and comfort level.
