Unlock the Beat: Personalized Drum Kit & Percussion Lessons to Elevate Your Rhythm with David
A partir de 60.65 $ /h
As a percussion and drum tutor, I offer personalised lessons designed to help students of all skill levels develop their rhythmic abilities. Whether you're a beginner or an advanced player, I tailor my teaching style to meet your needs, focusing on both technique and musicality. I teach a range of percussion instruments, including drum kit, snare, latin percussion, tuned and more, while emphasising solid foundational skills, improving timing, and enhancing coordination. I also specialise in tuned percussion, such as xylophone and vibraphone, helping students develop pitch recognition and melodic playing. In addition, I incorporate Latin percussion, teaching instruments like congas and pandeiro, to explore rhythm and groove in diverse musical styles. With a passion for music and an approach that prioritises fun, my lessons aim to motivate you to progress, build confidence, and truly enjoy the art of drumming.
Información adicional
Bring your sticks, what hand percussion instrument you may practice at home (bongos, pandeiro) so that I can adapt the lessons to suit your instruments. Also bring a notepad to help for lesson plans, and any music you may be working on.

Acerca de mí
I'm not just a percussionist—I'm a rhythm adventurer! From drumming in circus tents to grooving with theatre troupes around the world, my career is a whirlwind of beats, energy, and creativity. Whether playing with Giffords Circus, rocking international arts festivals, or jamming with eclectic music groups, I know how to bring percussion to life in the most exciting ways. I want you to experience the same joy I have at playing drums and percussion, some instruments you're very familiar with and others you've never heard or seen before!
My experience isn’t just about hitting drums—it’s about storytelling, expression, and making music accessible to everyone. I've worked with children, dancers, clowns, acrobats and community groups, proving that rhythm isn’t just something you play—it’s something you feel. As a tutor I have an infectious enthusiasm, vast experience, and deep passion for music make every lesson an adventure. Whether you want to master a groove, explore world percussion, or just have fun with rhythm, learning with me is like stepping into a musical playground where anything is possible!
