   Welcome to My Drum Pad, Hamden CT

Learn to play drums! I offer private drum lessons for all levels of skill and ages. My studio is located in Hamden, Connecticut. As a drum teacher, my goal is to inspire you and add value to your practice time by watching and listening with a positive and critical ear and eye. On my website, I will share with you ideas that have helped me grow as a drummer:

  • Endeavor to become as good a musician as those with which you will perform and engage musicians with abilities and styles you enjoy.
  • Learn to read music, practice daily, become well versed in the rudiments and comfortable at your kit.
  • Strive to become proficient in many styles of music - versatility will make you better and help to keep you working.
  • Listen and watch others perform - there is always something to be gained.
  • Drumming is holistic; regular practice will develop your body and mind keeping you vigorous throughout life.
  • Learn about the martial arts and yoga it will help to make you a better drummer.
  • Develop proper posture at the drum-set; strengthen your core, relax your body, this will focus your mind and your natural dynamic will develop and you will focus your energy better.

For me, drumming rhythmically combines math and art; the discovery is life long.  Relate these issues to balance in sound in your playing and your ability to control all four limbs - to develop coordinated independence - be musical - these are the main goals - and in time...
