Playing an instrument like Drums/HangDrums is all about having fun. In order to to enhance the students intuition for music and musicianship I like to keep it as simple as possible at first, no matter for kids or adults. On the other hand if the student comes already with some skills I like to build up on her/his abilities and take it to the next level. "One size fits all" dose not work in teaching! In my 30+ years of teaching experience I know that it is my responsibility to find the best "learning channel" for my students. I'll teach you how to play along with your favourite songs knowing all the necessary techniques and independence you need to master. You'll get custom made lessons especially designed for YOU to boost up your career as a musician.
