- What's More Cowbell all About?
- Benefit from the experience & knowledge
of an accomplished drummer who will adapt his teaching methods to each
individual from a 2 year old child with a short attention span to a pro
drummer who wants to recover from a wrist injury or add more depth.
- Taking
it easy on yourself is what learning and playing drums is all about.
I have a very relaxed and accepting attitude toward over and
underachievers, the ambidextrous and the not-so-coordinated.
I've seen no corrolary between aptitude and who actually makes
themselves into good drummers. Slow, patient, daily practice trumps innate ability and sporadic long-hours of intense practice.

I teach drum lessons in a very
convenient day time location for Microsoft employees and Redmond,
Bellevue, Kirkland, and Sammamish drummers. Half of my
students are from places like Seattle, Renton, Everett, Mercer Island,
Burien, Kent, Woodenville, Bothell, Shoreline, etc, but they're here in
Redmond working during my teaching hours. They only drive 3 minutes from Microsoft to
get to my home studio. It's probably the most effecient way to get a
drum lesson for people who work in the Redmond, Bellevue areas.
My daytime students take a break from work at Microsoft, etc, for a weekly
lesson, or are local full time parents who either take lessons, or
bring their children for lessons.
