Testimonials
Chris was my first drum teacher in 2002, and I could remember the rush he instilled in me then when playing drums. Playing drums then was just a way to play my favorite drummers songs, and to look cool doing it, which I think is what most kids think when they learn an instrument. However, in our time together, Chris taught me that playing drums is about mastery, artistry, expression, and purpose. To that end, those ideals have always been at the centerpiece in my education as I have been playing for 16 years now. He is an amazing teacher, and you will cherish the time you have with him as a mentor.
