Mike - BAHons, Trinity College Licentiate, DBS checked.
For beginners lessons, I offer an introductory programme that offers fast results and solid foundations to build upon. For intermediate and advanced players I offer in-depth concepts and techniques and broad scope for stylistic development.
The learning experience is catered to suit the student’s specific needs and I provide a comprehensive course of study covering: Foundational techniques, reading notation and understanding music theory, coordination, rudimental studies, stick technique, linear phrasing, moeller technique, improvisation, soloing, time keeping patterns and dynamic control. I offer guidance through the accredited Trinity (Classical and Rock & Pop) and Rock School graded syllabuses.
I have prepped students for exams across the grades and I also work from a deep library of resources covering different repertoire, styles, concepts and techniques. I also provide a collection of online video resources that supplement the lessons, to assist in practice.
-Styles covered include: Pop, Rock, Indie, Soul, R&B, Funk, ‘Latin’, Salsa, Afro-Cuban, Samba, Reggae, Jazz, Hip Hop, Punk, Metal, Drum and Bass, Dub, Ska, Folk, West African, Afrobeat.
