Drums lessons in FR-IT-EN with an experienced and qualified teacher

Drums lessons in FR-IT-EN with an experienced and qualified teacher

Je donne cours en français - Description disponible en Français Do lezione in Italiano - Descrizione disponibile in Italiano ......................................................................................................................................................... The course method, inspired by the Agostini school (French method used in French and Belgian academies and conservatories) is divided between technique and drums. At the rate of one session each we will focus once on technique and movements outside the drums (on pads) and the other time on the drums and the application of technique and movements. -> The technique lessons and the movements will be those of the so-called 'Moeller technique' that I learned through his direct lineage of student. -> The drum lessons are greatly inspired by the pedagogy of the M.A.I. (Music Academy International - Nancy (fr)) and in particular that of Richard-Paul Morellini, renowned instructor. The courses are complete, in-depth but above all specifically thought of to be progressive. They are suitable for children from 7 years old as well as adults of all ages. => Particular attention is paid to the movements and their correct application, to the total independence of the limbs and finally to an understanding of the rhythm and its theory. My main goal is to give the student complete control behind the drums and skills to be able to self-learn any piece in any musical style. 1 hour of weekly lessons are never enough, they should only be used to fuel the passion that will make you play at home more and more. On demand or for advancs students: - I am very passionate about the study of South American rhythms. Due to their complexity, apart from the samba and Baïon ostinatos, they are not included in the program before the advanced level. They can be at the request of the student. - I am also specialized in metal (musical style) and double pedal. The latter is not included in the program unless requested by the student. The double pedal courses are based on the methodology of Virgil Donati. Technique: * Moeller technique (the 'whipping motion' - the Free stroke -Full/Half/Low stroke - accepting the rebound - its application etc.) * Snare rudiments and their applications through reading systems * Readings of scores and exercises for the snare drum * Speed drills * Military marches * Control of the different subdivisions (quarter notes - eighth notes - triplets - sixteenth notes - quintuplets - sextuplets - triple eighth notes - nonolets etc.) * Displacement of accents and polyrhythms * On request, double pedal technique (application of the Moeller to the double pedal as well as everything listed above but with the feet) Drums: * Bass drum reading and independance * Snare drum reading and independance * Applications of ghost notes * The 16 sixteenth-notes ostinatos * Jazz readings and independence * Binary and ternary readings * Coordination and movements of both feet * Dynamics on the instrument * Creation of fills and original drum grooves * On request, application of the double pedal * On request or for advanced students, readings and independence of South American rhythms (study and independence of the clave/Cascara/Mozambique etc.)

From Your First Beat to Your First Song – Let's Make You a Drummer!

From Your First Beat to Your First Song – Let's Make You a Drummer!

About My Drum Lessons I am a self-taught drummer and performing musician who believes that learning an instrument should be a gradual, practical and enjoyable process. My approach to teaching comes from my own journey of exploring drumming, developing techniques, understanding rhythm and learning through consistent practice. My lessons are designed for beginners and developing drummers who want to build a strong foundation and eventually become independent musicians. What I cover in my lessons: - Drum Fundamentals: Understanding the drum kit, posture, grip, basic coordination and playing techniques. - Rudiments & Stick Control: Single strokes, double strokes, paradiddles, accents, dynamics and other essential rudiments. - Hand & Foot Techniques: Developing hand speed, control, bass drum technique, hi-hat control and foot independence. - Coordination & Independence: Building hand-foot combinations, limb independence and control over different rhythmic patterns. - Grooves & Rhythms: Learning essential rock, pop, funk and other contemporary grooves, along with variations and fills. - Timing & Musicality: Developing a strong sense of timing, metronome practice, rhythmic accuracy, dynamics and playing along with music. - Song Learning: Understanding drum parts, breaking down songs and applying techniques to real musical arrangements. - Recording & Basic Drum Production: Once you are comfortable playing the instrument, we can explore recording drums, microphone basics, MIDI drums, drum programming and an introduction to recording software. My Teaching Approach Having learned much of the instrument through self-study, experimentation, listening and practice, I understand that every drummer has a different learning curve. I aim to break down techniques into manageable steps, explain not just how something is played but why it works, and help students develop their own understanding of the instrument. Rather than rushing through exercises, I focus on building a solid foundation, developing consistency and gradually applying what you learn to actual music. Whether you are picking up drumsticks for the first time or already know a few grooves and want to improve your technique, the lessons will be structured around your current level, musical interests and learning pace. The ultimate goal is to help you become comfortable behind the kit, understand the instrument and enjoy making music independently.

Drum Lessons in Eindhoven - Student Friendly / Drum Lessen in Eindhoven - Student vriendelijk

Drum Lessons in Eindhoven - Student Friendly / Drum Lessen in Eindhoven - Student vriendelijk

English: As a teacher, I always work from the needs and level of the student. I believe learning music should be fun as well as practical, so I combine technique with direct application in songs and playing with other instruments. My method focuses on gradually building control and confidence behind the drum kit. A typical lesson begins with a short warm-up and technical exercises (sticks, coordination, timing). After that, we work on grooves or fills, often using a play-along track or music chosen by the student. In band lessons, the emphasis is on playing with other instruments, rehearsal structure, and stage presence: how to play tightly together, present yourself on stage, and how to deal with issues that might occur during your performance. My specific skills lie in modern genres such as (indie) rock, metal, pop, and groove-based styles. As a mentor and an active performer in several bands, I can share not only technical knowledge but also stage experience, rehearsal tips, and help with gear recommendation and learning about auxiliary aspects (recording drums, stage tech, etc). The lessons are intended for students and young musicians of all levels—from absolute beginners learning their first beat to advanced players refining their technique or bands who want to take their rehearsal and live performance to the next level. Group lessons and beginner band coaching are also available, where we work together on ensemble playing, communication, and performing.

Music lessons: drums, percussion, rhythmic music theory...

Music lessons: drums, percussion, rhythmic music theory...

Hello, I offer drums lessons in a warm place or at your home. Come and discover the battery differently. My mission is to help you develop your own identity on the instrument. I offer you a fun approach that focuses on the pleasure of playing. Having followed training and courses throughout my life (conservatory, schools ...), I am passionate and dedicated to sharing all of my experience with you. I practice in many music groups and other structures (schools, associations ...). With more than 20 years of experience in drums and more than 10 years in percussion, I teach many musical genres (jazz through Latin music, pop, hip hop, rock, hard, punk, metal ..) , the double pedal, notions of music theory, rhythmic reading. Possibility of taking percussion lessons (darbuka, bongos, African djembe, congas, jaw harp, dhol). The programs are directly inspired by internationally recognized methods, thus being able to adapt to the needs, levels and requirements of each individual. I travel but I also receive in a room with equipment available (any age and level of practice are allowed, from initialization to professionals). A different approach to music lessons: My teaching is resolutely modern. Classes are a moment of musical and human sharing where error is used as a positive experience to move forward. We work by oral transmission to complete the scores. We use onomatopoeia to quickly develop musical and felt play, rather than just reading and playing. So ... Tempted? No excuse, I give you couses from Monday to Sunday from 8 am to 11 pm. FROM child (from 5 years old) to senior, and from beginner to professional. Registration possible all year round. Contact me for more info on prices and formulas ... See you soon,

“ Absolutely stellar experience learning from Anton!! Having never taken a music class in my life and starting a new hobby at the age of 30, Anton was the perfect instructor to work with.

If you’re looking for an instructor who you can feel comfortable around learning something new, I highly recommend booking with Anton. 10/10 experience !! ”
