Over
My name is Isaias, and I began my musical journey at age five in a musical family. I’ve explored several instruments, but drums have always been my passion. I studied at Cyprus National Music School, Hellenic Conservatory and Codarts University of Arts and love sharing this passion with others.
Opleiding
My musical education began at Cyprus National Music School, where I built a strong foundation in both theory and performance. I continued my studies at the Hellenic Conservatory, further refining my technical skills and deepening my understanding of classical music. I later pursued advanced studies at Codarts University of Arts, where I expanded my artistic perspective through intensive training and international collaboration, shaping me into a versatile and expressive musician.
Leservaring
I began my professional teaching career at the Hellenic Conservatory, where I shared my knowledge and experience with the next generation of musicians. Since then, I have been teaching for the past three years in the Netherlands, continuing to develop my pedagogical approach while working with students in an international and inspiring musical environment.

Hi guys! Did you always want to play drums and get to know more about music? Now it is your chance!
My name is Federica and I'm an Italian drummer. I speak Italian, English, and Spanish. I graduated in Codarts, Hogeschool voor de Kunsten en Muziek in Master of Music. I am currently attending the PhD in the University of Evora (Pt) in Music and Musicology, specialization in Performance.
I have experience in teaching and I play in several bands. During the lessons, we can be focusing on more subjects and we'll learn several styles such as Jazz Latin, pop, blues, rock, and funk, adapting to your need.
The attention will be given even to the study of a snare drum, with technical and rhythmical exercises. everything steps by step.
Don't hesitate to contact me if you're interested!

Is learning to play the drums your dream? Are you looking for a drum teacher in Rotterdam for your child or for yourself? Did you play the drums in the past and do you want to pick it up again or are you going to sit behind a drum kit for the first time?

Drumming is my great passion. I am crazy about many types of music and teach you all styles such as Pop - Jazz - Rock - Samba and much more! Tips and Tricks from practice! All facets of percussion and drumming can be offered. Technique, timing, creativity, time keeping, flexibility, coordination, relaxed posture, theory, reading drum notation, new fills, grooves and solos!

If you have a drum set I can also come to your home. No drum set yet? I will help you find one!

Lesson is given on location or at home (if you have a drum kit), and your first lesson is always free, because you have to be able to determine if you like drumming and you want me as a teacher.
.
Drum lessons (giving) is always fun and educational. You learn in addition to technique (the correct (sitting) posture, stick control and the 'rudiments' basic patterns such as the familiar 'roffel' (double-stroke-roll) and the 'paradiddle' - also the importance of counting, dynamics, reading notes and timing After all, you will all need them if you want to continue (with a band or just for yourself).

- How long does it take before I become a drummer?
Two answers: a few hours, and a lifetime. You will see that you can play nice things in no time, but also that top drummers in the world, such as Phil Collins, Cesar Zuiderwijk, Dave Lombardo or Simon Phillips, learn new things every day (and happy).

- Am I too old to start?
You're never too old,
- Do I have a sense of rhythm?
You can learn rhythm feeling. I have NOT been able to teach anyone. - Is there a best drummer in the world?
It is about fun, and there is no podium or medal, only thousands of colleagues who are doing very well.
- Is drumming only something for men?
I do not think so! Take a look at Sheila E. or Cindy Blackman;)

Do you want to learn some cuban grooves? or maybe latin jazz?

Apart from teaching the most amazing latin rhythms, In my lessons I apply the stick control book, to achieve a good technique, and at the same time I teach coordination and grooves, with the best methods and books from the most qualified drummers.

I'm a professional drummer from Spain, but living in Rotterdam, the Netherlands. I have studied Latin drums at Codarts, university of the arts, in Rotterdam, so I've acquired a lot of knowledge and skills on Cuban and Brazilian music, jazz, funk and Pop.

I've performed in places such as:
North Sea Jazz Festival, Het Concertgebouw (Amsterdam), Tivoli (Utrecht), Jazzcafe Dizzy, etc...
