Welcome to Jazz Drum School!

With 35+ years of Jazz drumming experience, I’ve had the honor of performing with Jazz legends like Benny Golson, Stanley Jordan, Eddie Henderson, Geoff Keezer, Shelley Berg, Tita Lima and many others. These experiences didn’t just shape my playing—they gave me deep insight into what truly matters in Jazz drumming.

At Jazz Drum School, I cut through the noise and get straight to what you actually need to know to grow as a Jazz drummer. No fluff—just clear, effective lessons designed to help you develop real skills, faster.

Having taught 10,000+ drum lessons, I’ve refined a relaxed, easy-to-follow teaching style that makes learning Jazz drumming feel natural and fun. And I’m proud to see drummers from North America, South America, Europe, Australia and Asia improving their playing with my courses.

I appreciate you stopping by. Now, let’s get you swinging my friend—see you inside!
